More about Neways
products...
Did you know the
bathroom is one of the most dangerous rooms in the
house?
From shortly after
birth, mothers tenderly wash and pamper their
infants with a wide range of baby products. These
include soaps, shampoos, lotions, and dusting
powders, some of which are used several times daily.
However, how would mothers react if they discovered
that these baby products contain a witch's brew of
dangerous ingredients? Hopping mad could be a
reasonable understatement.
Most disturbing are three groups of widely used
ingredients known as "hidden carcinogens" --
ingredients which are contaminated by carcinogens,
or which break down to release carcinogens, or which
are precursors of carcinogens - to which infants are
about 100 times more sensitive than adults.
The largest group of hidden carcinogens includes
dozens of wetting agents or detergents, particularly
PGs, PEGs, Laureths, and Ceteareths, all of which
are contaminated with the potent and volatile
carcinogens ethylene oxide and dioxane. These
carcinogens could readily be stripped off during
ingredient manufacture, if the industry just made
the effort to do so.
Another hidden carcinogenic ingredient is lanolin,
derived from sheep's wool, most samples of which are
contaminated with DDT-like pesticides. The second
group includes another detergent, Triethanolamine
(TEA) which, following interaction with nitrite, is
a precursor of a highly potent nitrosamine
carcinogen.
The third group
includes Quaterniums and Diazolidinyl urea
preservatives which break down in the product or
skin to release the carcinogenic formaldehyde.

According to recent
daily use estimates, three personal care products
are used on infants and children, men use ten
personal care products, and women use six cosmetics
and 13 personal care products; some products are
used several times daily.
Assuming mainstream industry products each contain
only two carcinogens, this results in daily
exposures to six different avoidable carcinogens for
infants and children, 20 for men, and 38
for women.
