How body care products are messing up hormones big time - Read before using any personal care products!
Toss a shampoo, soap, lotion, makeup, or perfume from the store in your cart and it most likely contains ingredients that drastically mess with your hormones with just 30 seconds of exposure.
Phthalates are a toxic group of chemical compounds found in most personal care products. Current estimates suggest that more than 75% of north Americans have significant levels of phthalates in their urine.
High exposure to this and other toxins can lead to compromised ovarian function, inhibited s***m motility, and early onset of puberty.
Researchers at the University of Rochester Medical Center have now also linked this ingredient to abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, and the onset of type two diabetes in men (due to its effects on testosterone).
These chemicals are so prevalent in Americans that sewage from people who use these products affects wildlife significantly. Scientists discovered a disturbing proliferation of hermaphrodite fish in the Great Lakes due to these chemicals in the environment. Scientists initially noticed that certain species of male fish were developing eggs. 😳 Just two years later, the same fish population was almost completely wiped out because their reproductive capabilities were ravaged.
Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine treated cultured breast cancer cells with extracts from these estrogen-laden fish. Once exposed to the fish extract, the cancer cells grew more rapidly! 😬☠️
If any of your personal care products or cleaning products contain the word “fragrance” or “parfum”, it’s time to toss 🗑 them and make the switch! We are covering lots of natural hormone health this month in one of my groups with lots more info; msg me for deets if you’d like to join!
