The Center for Environmental Research and Children’s Health
at California University, Berkeley, has released its new finding that teens can
lower their exposure to hormone-disrupting chemical ingredients by staying away
from conventionally manufactured and marketed pharma-based skin care
ingredients. The study warns that teens, and even those with more sensitive
skin, should refrain from such formulations which contain parabens, phthalates,
sodium laurel sulfates, triclosan and other petroleum based ingredients which
have been found to create disruptive hormonal imbalance.
The new study noted that most of the beauty products
presently in the market contain these potentially harmful chemicals; and unfortunately
presence of these chemicals are not indicated in the packaging labels of most
of the popular cosmetic and skin care products.
The latest study analyzed the urine samples to see the
effects of products containing harmful chemicals, comparing them with those obtained
after the use of safer products. The effect was immediately noticeable - just 3
days after discontinuing the use of chemical based products.
The study emphasized that “teen girls may be at particular
risk since it is time for rapid reproductive development”. The same advice has
been offered to other young women. The UC Berkeley researchers hope that with
increasing awareness about these potentially harmful skin care products,
consumers will be able to make conscious choice, using safer products and
avoiding health risks.
With more than 6 years’ business operations of herbal
natural skin-care products, Herbally Radiant would like to add that its own lab
tests have consistently shown immense benefits that women can derive by using
genuine herbal organic products which are safe, reliable and most skin
friendly, and, of course, without causing any side effects.
