SHAMPOO
Cancer-causing substance in shampoos. Go home and check your shampoo.
Change before it's too late... Check the ingredients listed on your shampoo
bottle, and see they have a substance by the name of Sodium Laureth Sulfate, or
simply SLS. This substance is found in most shampoos; manufacturers use it
because it produces a lot of foam and it is cheap. BUT the fact is, SLS is
used to scrub garage floors, and it is very strong!!! It is also proven
that it can cause cancer in the long run, and this is no joke. Shampoos that
contains SLS: Vo5, Palmolive, Paul Mitchell, L'Oreal, the new Hemp Shampoo
from Body Shop etc. contain this substance.
The first ingredient listed (which means it is the single most prevalent
ingredient) in Clairol's Herbal Essences is Sodium Laureth Sulfate.
Therefore, I called one company, and I told them their product contains a
substance that will cause people to have cancer. They said, Yeah we knew
about it but there is nothing we can do about it because we need that
substance to produce foam. By the way Colgate toothpaste also contains the
same substance to produce the "bubbles". They said they are going to send
me some information.
Research has shown that in the 1980s, the chance of getting cancer is 1 out
of 8000 and now, in the 1990s, the chances of getting cancer is 1 out of 3,
which is very serious. Therefore, I hope that you will take this seriously
and pass this on to all the people you know, and hopefully, we can stop
"giving" ourselves cancer-causing agents.
