What's in Childrens Bath Products?

Children's Bath Products May Contain Formaldehyde and/or 1,4-Dioxan (Environmental Health Hazards-Superwellness for Superkids - Shaklee Health Sciences Despite marketing claims such as "gentle" and "pure," dozens of top-selling children's bath products appear to be contaminated with formaldehyde and 1,4-dioxane, chemicals that are known to cause cancer in animals and listed as probable human carcinogens by the Environmental Protection Agency. A March 2009 report from the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics (CSC) documents the widespread presence of both formaldehyde and 1,4-dioxane in baby shampoos, bubble baths, and baby lotions-products made specifically for infants and children.* The CSC is a national coalition attempting to protect consumer health by requiring the personal care products industry to phase out the use of chemicals linked to cancer, birth defects, and other health concerns. The CSC commissioned an independent laboratory to test top-selling children's products for 1,4-dioxane and formaldehyde. Test results showed that: 61% contained both formaldehyde and 1,4-dioxane 82% contained formaldehyde at levels ranging from 54 ppm to 610 ppm 67% contained 1,4-dioxane at levels ranging from 0.27 ppm to 35 ppm There are no regulatory standards that limit contamination of formaldehyde, 1,4-dioxane, or many other toxic chemicals in personal care products sold in the United States. But formaldehyde is banned from such products in Japan and Sweden, and the European Union bans 1,4-dioxane from personal care products. Although some believe that U.S. regulators are beginning to recognize the risks associated with these chemicals, our current cosmetics laws are woefully out of date and need to be updated. Make Smart Choices for Personal Care Products Designed for Infants and Children Choose safer products. Search for safer products that are clinically tested and free of synthetic fragrance or dyes, parabens, 1,4-dioxane, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), formaldehyde, phthalates, PEG-100 stearate, and ceteareth-20. Look for gentle products that are pediatrician tested, sensitivity tested, natural- and organic-ingredient based, hypoallergenic, and pH balanced Look for healthy products free of synthetic fragrances and artificial colors; products with BPA-free packaging, no phthalates, or toxic inks.

Can loosing weight be a "Cinch"?

If you are like most people, you’ve struggled with your weight at one time or another. You’ve been on every fad diet. Initially you lose some weight, but then you gain it back and find yourself heavier than before. This is the dreaded cycle of yo-yo dieting. Yes, in the short term you can lose the weight, but every time you do this you may be doing more damage than good because your body thinks it’s experiencing a “famine.” In response to that famine, your body goes into survival mode and conserves energy by slowing down your metabolism. The Cinch Inch Loss Plan is different. It addresses one of the primary reasons why other diets fail.
