"Poison in the Pantry -
The Truth Behind the Label"

Why are we so fat, forgetful and fatigued?

Some of the food additives are toxic and consumers should be aware of the implications and possible reactions to these products.  There are some questionable ingredients that have been implicated in ADHD, ADD, allergic reactions, Alzheimer’s, fibromyalgia pain and more.  The more educated you are as a consumer the better choices you can make about your health.

“One food additive that creates obesity might not have that much impact but when you consider that each of these food ingredients are cumulative and that some of the side effects create the same health hazards, the magnitude of the debilitating influence on our health is frightening…"

So many people are looking for ways to develop a healthy lifestyle and this is where to start…reading labels and changing eating habits from processed foods to whole, healthy, organic food.

This booklet compiles information from several sources to bring you a short, easy to read guide to food ingredients, side effects.

Cancer, creams and makeup, is there a connection?

Scientists estimate that more than 85% of breast cancer can be linked to environmental influences.

In 1991 the FDA determined that of the cosmetic samples tested 65% contained cancer causing chemicals.

An average woman will apply 12 different products everyday, potentially exposing her system to over 184 different chemicals: many are carcinogenic, neurotoxic or estrogen mimickers.

Parabens found in foundation makeup, eye makeup, lipstick, etc. are hormone disruptors known to cause an overgrowth of breast cells.  Parabens have been found intact in breast tumors.

There are over 100,000 chemicals registered in the U.S., less than 10% have been tested for toxicity in humans.  Many of these chemicals are used in personal care products.

The skin is the largest organ of the body.  It is an essential part of the immune system.  Sixty percent (60%) of what is applied to the skin is absorbed directly into the bloodstream.

There are no regulations that control what ingredients are in our body care products.
