When metabolic wastes build up in the body during and after a workout, the sore muscles and achy, tired feeling is all too familiar. The best way to reduce "down time" the body needs to remove these wastes and repair tissue is to rest, and get plenty of wholesome nutritious food, fresh air and allow the sweat to flow freely. Herbs can also help. The best herbal "blood purifiers" and detoxifyers are echinacea, red root, burdock, dandelion, sarsaparilla, yellow dock, and small to moderate amounts of golden seal.
These herbs can be taken in powder, tea or extract form two or three times daily, and are especially useful when combined with occasional bowel cleansing, sweating therapy and drinking plenty of pure water. See my book, Natural Liver Therapy for more information.

STEP ONE -Detoxify Your BodyIt doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that toxic ingredients do not make a quality product, but many people unknowingly use products containing harmful ingredients all the time. For example, sodium lauryl sulfate is a frequently used ingredient known throughout the scientific community as a skin irritant. It is rapidly absorbed and retained in the body and may result in harmful long-term effects, such as cataracts in adults, or improperly developed eyes in children.Detoxifying your body with our personal care products is your first step toward assisting the fight against carcinogens. We are committed to producing quality, low-cost products without sodium lauryl sulfate, DEA (a known carcinogen), or any of the potentially harmful ingredients found in most other personal care products. Whether it's fluoride-free toothpaste or SLS-free shampoo, you will find safe, carcinogen-free products to detoxify your body in our arsenal of carcinogen-free products.Step One Choices

Oily skin has much luster, and may even be shiny from all the oil. Oil reflects light to give it a smooth, silky texture and a healthy looking glow. It protects your skin from drying so that it takes longer to develop wrinkles. However, having oily skin is not always as slick as it looks. It creates coarser texture that is prone to enlarged pores and acne. The real downfall is that the excess oil clogs your pores and then acts like a sponge to collect dirt and skin cells that are shedding that leads to pimples, blackheads, and infections. If you have oily skin, wash daily with an natural cleanser to remove the excess oil.
Just like oily skin, oily hair has an attractive shine, but too much makes it look dull, lifeless, and heavy. You need to get to9 the root of the problem: Roots of your hair where the oil is produced and where it concentrates. Brushing your oily hair from the roots to the tips help to distribute the oils. Wash it frequently and brush before hand to make it easier to remove the excess oil. Don't use protein or balsam shampoos because they attract oil.
Here is a list of the essential oils that are best for oily skin and hair.

Basic Skin Care with Essential OilsEveryone has experienced some type of skin affliction that could be treated using Essential oils. Simple scrapes and cuts are common for those who work with their hands. Insect bites, burns caused by the sun or working in the kitchen, allergies, rashes, and swelling, all may be treated with the proper Aromatherapy treatment. Look through our recipe pages to find the proper treatment.Skin is the body's largest organ, both for ingestion and elimination. It is a major part of the immune system, too, protecting against the elements, and preventing harmful chemicals or too much water from entering the body. Stress, emotions, poor nutrition, and pollution all take a heavy toll on the skin. Essential oils act as transporters to carry therapeutic benefits to the skin layers; and they penetrate the skin, weaving their way through the intercellular fluids. They also help improve the skin's condition by stimulating circulation. Cell growth by phytohormone activity and cell regeneration, creates a fresher, more vibrant complexion. Stress reducing benefits also keep skin looking clear and calm. Floral waters are the easiest way to use essential oils on the skin. Waters have the healing properties of the oil itself, and are well suited to sensitive skin. Make floral waters in a spray bottle if possible, for convenience. Blend 5 to 10 drops of the essential oil into 4 oz. of distilled water and use as needed. Essential oils may also be added to your lotions or moisturizers. However, because the oils are volatile, you cannot make up the preparation in advance. Pour some lotion into your hand; add 3 drops of oil and apply to your skin.Just like your skin, your hair can be too dry or too oily. It’s not actually the hair itself that produces oil, it’s your scalp, which is skin, so it’s usually the same type as your complexion. If you have dry skin, you probably have a dry scalp. If you’re skin is oily, then your scalp is like also oily. Likewise, they are helped by the same remedies.HINT: If you're wondering what kind of complexion you have, you can try this experiment. Go to bed one night without putting any creams, lotions, or anything on your face. Cut three small strips of paper from a clean brown paper bag. In the morning before you wash or do anything to your face, press a paper on your chin, one on your nose, and the third on your forehead. Keep these on for at least five seconds each. If you have oily skin, you'll see a definite oil stain on the paper strip. Dry skin leaves no oil on the paper. Normal skin shows only a slight stain caused by a small amount of oil.We want to point out that Aromatherapy is a complimentary or alternate form of healing. You should always consult a Medical Doctor prior to changing or replacing any form of medication.Beneficial effects essential oils have on the skin.· Essential oils penetrate the layers of skin all the way down to the dermal layer where new cells are formed.· Affect your emotional and mental state positively. This can alleviate stress related skin problems.· They stimulate and regenerate the production of healthy skin cells quickly following burns, sun damage, or healing of wounds.· Essential oils soothe sensitive, delicate and inflamed skin.· Balance over or under active skin by regulating sebaceous secretions.· They can greatly reduce bacteria and fungal infections, as well as other related skin problems.· Oils Promote the release and removal of metabolic wastes.· Contain plant hormones that help balance and alleviate hormonally related skin problems.

BE AWARE OF ... We have chosen to describe a few of the worst offenders of the thousands of toxic chemicals used in personal and skin care products. Many of these chemicals have more than one effect; some are suspected carcinogens, as well as being toxins, contaminates, skin irritants, hormone disruptors, poisons, etc.
Alcohol, Isopropyl Collagen Lye Saccharin
Alpha Hydroxy Acid Crystalline Silica MEA (Monoethanolamine) Sodium Hydroxide
Aluminum DEA (Diethanolamine) Mineral Oil Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate (ALS) Dioxins Nitrosamine Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES)
Animal Fat (Tallow) Elastin of High-molecular Weight Para-phenylenediamine Dyes Talc
Bentonite Fluoride Petrolatum Tallow
Bronopol Fluorocarbons Phthalates TEA (Triethanolamine
Butylated hydroxianisole (BHA) Formaldehyde Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Thylene Glycol (EG)
Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) Glycerin Potassium Hydroxide Triclosan
Butylene Glycol (BG) Kaolin Propylene Glycol
Coal Tar Dyes Lanolin Quanternium-15
Isopropyl Alcohol:
Implicated in mouth, tongue, and throat cancers. A colorless, volatile, flammable liquid produced by the fermentation of yeast and carbohydrates. Alcohol is used frequently as a solvent and is also found in cleaning agents, cosmetics and personal care products, perfumes and rubbing alcohol, beverages and medicine. As an ingredient in ingestible products, alcohol may cause body tissues to be more vulnerable to carcinogens. Mouthwashes with an alcohol content of 25% or more have been implicated in oral cancers.
Poisoning symptoms include flushing, dizziness, depression, nausea, headaches, and coma. Rubbing alcohol baths or sponges used to soothe a fever can lead to acute poisoning through skin absorption or inhalation. Package warning suggest using protective gloves, and using a well-ventilated area.
Alpha Hydroxy Acid:
Skin irritant. An organic acid produced by anaerobic respiration. Skin care products containing AHA exfoliate not only dead skin cells, but the skin’s protective barrier as well. Long-term skin damage may result from its use.
Aluminum:
Skin irritant. Has been linked to Alzheimer’s Disease. Very commonly found in antiperspirants; it's used to clog your underarm pores, so you don't sweat... not a good thing to do! The leading cause of breast cancer is the use of antiperspirant. A Concentration of toxins that leads to cell mutations (a.k.a. CANCER.) Yes, ANTIPERSPIRANT. Most of the products out there are an antiperspirant/deodorant combination so go home and check your labels. Deodorant is fine, antiperspirant is not.
Animal Fat (Tallow):
A type of animal tissue made up of oily solids or semisolids that are water-insoluble esters of glycerol with fatty acids. Animal fats and lye are the chief ingredients in bar soap, a cleansing and emulsifying product that may act as a breeding ground for bacteria
Bentonite:
May suffocate the skin. A porous clay that expands many times its dry volume as it absorbs water. Commonly found in many cosmetic foundations, may clog pores and suffocate the skin. *This is also used to put out forest fires because it has the ability to smother the flames.
Bronopol:
Acts by releasing nitrites, which combine with DEA to form nitrosamines. "One of the most expensive lines of cosmetics today, Chanel, often uses this chemical. So do many leading brands of baby products. And the Body Shop, whose product sales are built on a reputation of containing natural ingredients, also offers products containing this chemical. There are many safer yet equally effective products available," states Dr. Epstein.**
Butylated hydroxianisole (BHA)
Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT)
BHA and BHT are preservatives very commonly used not only in cosmetics and personal care products, but in food products. BHA is absorbed through the skin, stored in body tissues, and is an animal carcinogen, suspected human carcinogen, and a xenoestrogen.
Coal Tar Dyes:
Carcinogens. Blue #1 and Green #3 to name only a few. According to Dr. Epstein, "These carcinogenic dyes are often contaminated with arsenic and lead." Check your toothpaste label on the box it came in! These artificial dyes are in many other products as well.
Collagen:
May suffocate the skin. An insoluble fibrous protein that is too large to penetrate the skin. The collagen found in most skin care products is derived from animal skins and ground up chicken feet. This ingredient forms a layer of film that may suffocate the skin. The molecular weight of any product must be 3000 to enter the skin, 800 to enter the cell, 75 to enter the blood stream. The molecular weight of most skin & hair products is over 10,000 therefore, is ineffective.
Crystalline Silica:
Carcinogen. According to Dr. Epstein, "Crystalline Silica is present in some personal care products and toiletries. It's been incriminated as a cause of lung cancer in both animal studies and human."
DEA (Diethanolamine)
MEA (Monoethanolamine)
TEA (Triethanolamine)
Some alias names: Cocamide DEA, DEA-Cetyl phosphate, DEA Oleth-3 phosphate, Myristamide DEA, Stearamide MEA, Cocamide MEA, Lauramide DEA, Linoleamide MEA, Oleamide DEA, TEA-Lauryl Sulfate ("Diethanolamine and Cosmetic Products", FDA Office of Cosmetics Fact Sheet, Dec. 9, 1999)
These chemicals and related ingredients are emulsifiers and foaming agents, widely used in a variety of cosmetic products, particularly bubble bath, bodywash, shampoo, soap and facial cleansers.
Ethanolamines are eye and skin irritants, causing contact dermatitis. DEA is easily absorbed through the skin, and accumulates in body organs, even the brain.
"Animal tests show it causes damage to the liver, kidney, brain, spinal cord, bone marrow, and skin. Contact with the eyes can cause impaired vision". ("Dangerous Beauty: Cosmetics and Personal Care:, P. Dingle and T. Brown, 1999
In 1998, the National Toxicology Program (NTP) did a research study showing an association between cancer in laboratory animals and diethanolamine (DEA) and certain DEA - related ingredients, when applied topically. ("Diethanolamine and Cosmetic Products", FDA Office of Cosmetics Fact Sheet, Dec. 9, 1999)
John Bailey, head of the Cosmetic Division for the FDA, says that the ....study is especially important since "the risk equation changes significantly for children" ... CBS THIS MORNING, Feb. 23, 1998.
According to Dr. Samuel S. Epstein, "After this clear-cut study which was released by the National Toxicology Program, you would expect that the mainstream industry to have acted on this and to replace DEA. Not on your life! There’s been a denial and an attempt to trivialize the risk."
NITROSAMINES ARE CARCINOGENS! ("Prohibited Ingredients", FDA Office of Cosmetics Fact Sheet, February 1005) You're not allowed to eat them, but you're permitted to put them on your skin!
DEA, when in the presence of nitrate preservatives and contaminants, can form the nitrosamine NDELA (nitrosodiethanolamine). In 1991, two surveys were conducted which found that of 29 products tested, 27 were found to contain NDELA... in 1980, the FDA analyzed 335 cosmetic products and found that 42% were contaminated with NDELA..." ("Dangerous Beauty: Cosmetics and Personal Care:, P. Dingle and T. Brown, 1999
The concentration of nitrosamines in these products is as much as 50% to 100% higher than that in nitrate-processed bacon (no longer produced in this country because of the carcinogenic effects!)
According to Dr. Epstein, "Your best self-protection is to boycott any products containing DEA or TEA. That will send a clear message to the cosmetic industry."
Dioxins:
A potentially carcinogenic by-product that results from the process used to bleach paper at paper mills. Dioxin-treated containers sometimes transfer dioxins to the product itself. (see Sodium Laureth Sulfate). According to Dr. Epstein, "The Health Protection Branch of Canada has reported dioxin levels in the parts per trillion range in several samples of milk and cream packaged in bleached milk cartons manufactured in the United States. Dioxin has migrated from the cartons to the milk. Very likely U.S. milk products are similarly contaminated with dioxin. Dioxin’s carcinogenicity is up to 500,000 times more potent than that of DDT."
http://www.chej.org Formaldehyde: carcinogen. Found in many cosmetic products and conventional nail care systems.
Fluoride
Possible carcinogen. Dr. Epstein states, "There have been several studies incriminating fluoride in bone cancer. The important point about this is that the public have been given no information on this and fluoride in toothpaste is particularly dangerous because kids swallow a significant amount of the fluoride, especially when toothpaste contains saccharin as many toothpastes do."
http://www.nofluoride.com
Click Here for More Information on Fluoride
Fluorocarbons:
Can produce mild upper respiratory tract irritation. A colorless, nonflammable gas or liquid commonly used as a propellant in hairspray.
Formaldehyde:
Is used as a disinfectant, germicide, fungicide, and preservative. It is found in cosmetics and personal care products because numerous other ingredients release formaldehyde when they break down.
Two of these formaldehyde donors used as preservatives are DMDM (Dimethylol Dimethol Hydantoin) and Imidazolidinyl Urea often sited as the second most common cause orf contact dermatitis from preservatives. (A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients, Ruth Winters, Three Rivers Press, 1999)
Glycerin:
A syrupy liquid that is chemically produced by combining water and fat. Unless the humidity of air is over 65 percent, glycerin draws moisture from the lower layers of the skin and holds it on the surface, which dries the skin from the inside out. Although potentially harmful in skin care products, when applied inside the moist cavity of the mouth, its properties as a humectant are potentially beneficial. Glycerin helps dental products retain moisture, as well as improve product consistency and spreadability--without negative effects.
Kaolin:
May suffocate the skin. A fine white clay used in making porcelain. Like Bentonite, kaolin smothers and weakens the skin. Used in cosmetic foundations, as well as absorbing powder, face masks, liquid and cake powder and dry blusher.
Lanolin:
Highly contaminated with pesticides. According to Dr. Epstein, "Most lanolin samples, at least 50 to 60%, are contaminated."
Lye: also known as Sodium Hydroxide or Potassium Hydroxide
A highly concentrated watery solution of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. Lye is combined with animal fats to make bar soaps, which may corrode and dry out the skin. It is found in toothpaste, eye drops, and other personal care products. The MSDS for it says "POISON! DANGER! CORROSIVE. May be fatal if swallowed, harmful if inhaled. Causes burns to any area of contact, reacts with water, acids, and other materials." (MSDS Sodium Hydroxide #S4034)
Why is it included in toothpastes? The action of the lye helps remove stains and discolorations on teeth. This seems to be an extreme way to get whiter teeth! Sodium hydroxide is in drain cleaners and oven cleaners. You can buy lye - sodium hydroxide- in the plumbing department of your hardware store. All these products have the same warnings as that noted above, but there are no warnings about Sodium Hydroxide on toothpaste tubes.
Consumers should be very careful to check ingredients on toothpaste tubes, especially those that promise "brighter, whiter teeth".. It may be the sodium hydroxide that is doing the "whitening".
Mineral Oil (heavy) - Mineral Oil (light)
Smothers the skin. A derivative of crude oil (petrolatum) that is used industrially as a cutting fluid and lubricating oil. Mineral oil forms an oily film over skin to lock in moisture, but traps in toxins and wastes, and clogs your pores. It hinders normal skin respiration by keeping oxygen out. It can promote acne and other disorders, and slows down normal cell development, resulting in premature aging of the skin.
Nitrosamine:
According to Dr. Epstein, "We’ve known since 1976 that DEA will react with nitrites which are present, as preservatives or contaminants, in personal care products, to produce a carcinogen known as nitrosodiethanolamine. This is found in virtually any cosmetic that contains DEA. Consumers have been exposed without any information and without any guidance whatsoever! In 1979 the FDA warned the cosmetic industry that DEA was dangerous because of this. The cosmetic industry ignored the warning! While over in Europe, strong action was taken to phase out the use of DEA." Padimate-O (also known as octyl dimethyl PABA): Act by releasing nitrites which combine with DEA to form *nitrosamines. Found in cosmetics, especially sunscreens. "The most prudent consumers will prefer sunscreens without padimate-O," states Dr. Epstein.
Para-phenylenediamine Dyes:
Carcinogenic when oxidized. According to Dr. Epstein, "These are dyes which are extensively used in permanent black and dark brown hair dyes which have been incriminated in a variety of cancers including non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and multiple myeloma." Something to think about: Jackie Kennedy used to dye her hair black every two weeks or so and she died of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Petrolatum:
Smothers the skin. A petroleum-based grease that is used industrially as a grease component. Petrolatum exhibits many of the same potentially harmful properties as mineral oil.
Phthalates:
Phthalates are commonly found in cosmetic and personal care products, especially nail polish, perfumes, hair sprays, and skin lotions, as well as clothes, household cleaners and deodorizers, baby toys, garden hoses, shower curtains, insect repellants, toothbrushes, food packaging, aspirin, medical tubing and fluid bags, gum, candy, biodegradable tampon injectors, and prescription medications.
In the recent CDC study, ("National Report on Human Exposure to Environmental Chemicals"; Center for Disease Control, Atlanta, Ga: Full report is available at
http://www.cdc.gov/nceh/dis/report) diethyl phthalate and dibutyl phthalates, suspected xenoestrogens, were found in women of child-bearing ages.
The CDC's John Brock, the head researcher on the phthalate study, said that his "biggest concern was that the highest levels of exposure were in women of child-bearing age." ("Concerns over chemicals in cosmetics", Francesca Lyman,
http://www.msnbc.com/news/472235.asp October 4, 2000) Phthalates are regulated as toxic substances under environmental laws that limit their discharge into air, land, and water, but there are NO limitations on the amount of phthalates used in consumer products, including cosmetics.
Health effects of phthalates include damage to the liver and kidneys, birth defects, decreased sperm counts, testicular cancer, early puberty onset in girls, early breast development in girls and boys, and other reproductive disorders. Phthalates are suspected in being at fault in reduced fertility in males. ("Identification of phthalate esters in the serum of young Puerto Rican Girls with premature breast development", Colon et al, Environmental Health Perspectives Vol. 108, No. 9, Sept, 2000)
"Metabolites of diethyl phthalate, used in volatile components of cosmetics like perfumes, nail polishes and hairsprays were found at levels about 70 times higher than metabolites of (one of) the chemicals banned in soft plastic toys...."
Potassium Hydroxide - See Lye
Propylene Glycol (PG)
Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)
Butylene Glycol (BG)
Thylene Glycol (EG)
PG, PEG, BG and EG are all petroleum derivatives that act as solvents, surfactants, and wetting agents. They can easily penetrate the skin, and can weaken protein and cellular structure. In fact, PG penetrates the skin so quickly that the EPA warns factory workers to avoid skin contact, to prevent brain, liver, and kidney abnormalities. PG is present in many stick deodorants, often in heavier concentrations than in most industrial applications (Dr. Vin Nyack, Ph.D., Biochemist; personal communication) and Propylene Glycol is what is used to carry the "active" ingredients in those transdermal patches INTO YOUR BODY.
PG is a strong skin irritant. A cosmetic form of mineral oil found in automatic brake and hydraulic fluid, and industrial antifreeze. In skin and hair care products, propylene glycol works as a humectant, which is a substance that retains the moisture content of skin or cosmetic products by preventing the escape of moisture or water. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) warn users to avoid skin contact with propylene glycol as this strong skin irritant can cause liver abnormalities and kidney damage. May be harmful by inhalation, ingestion or skin absorption. May cause eye irritation, skin irritation. Exposure can cause gastro-intestinal disturbances, nausea, headache and vomiting, central nervous system depression.
Check out your body lotions, deodorant, hair conditioner, hair gel, creams, and many more products! Molecular weight of PG is 60. (Ingredients with molecular weight of 75 or lower enters our blood stream)
Propylene glycol is also used as a solvent in acrylics, stains, inks and dyes, and in cellophane and brake fluid. It is used as a preservative in flavored coffee. PG can have an anesthetic effect. Other side effects on animals exposed to PG include heart arrhythmia, stunted growth, decreased blood pressure, and even death. BG - Butylene Glycol - is now being used to replace PG in some personal care products, even though Butylene Glycol is the only one of the glycols that has not been able to even get on the GRAS List (Generally Recognized As Safe)
Quanternium-15:
A formaldehyde donor Quanternium-15 is a preservative and anti-microbial and a severe cause of dermatitis. It is also a teratrogen (causes birth defects in animals) ("A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients", Ruth Winters, Three Rivers Press, 1999)
According to Dr. Epstein, "This ingredient is generally safe, BUT will break down in the bottle, or tube, or on the skin to release formaldehyde for which the evidence of its carcinogenicity is literally overwhelming."
Saccharin:
Carcinogen. According to Dr. Epstein, "The evidence on the carcinogenicity of saccharin is literally overwhelming. Sacchari is the only carcinogen identified in diet foods which is listed as a carcinogen on the label."
Sodium Hydroxide - See Lye
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS):
Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES):
Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate (ALS)
SLS, SLES, and ALS are used as detergents, surfactants and foaming agents. These compounds can be found in almost any kind of industrial cleaning agent. They are even more widely used as major ingredients in cosmetics, hair conditioners, toothpaste, about 90% of all shampoos, other products that foam (including those made especially for babies), and in products designed to be left on the skin for an extended period of time, for instance, bubble bath.
SLS is rapidly absorbed and retained in the eyes, brain, heart, and liver, which may result in harmful long-term effects. SLS could retard healing, cause cataracts in adults, and keep children’s eyes from developing properly. In fact, studies have shown that washing your hair one time with a shampoo containing Sodium Lauryl Sulfate could put as many nitrates into your bloodstream as eating a whole pound of bacon. And that is just ONE application. Molecular weight of SLS is 40 (Ingredients with a molecular weight of 75 or lower enters our blood stream)
SLES is "Contaminated with a very potent carcinogen; dioxane and very easily absorbed through the skin," states Dr. Epstein. SLES is the alcohol form (ethoxylated) of SLS. It is slightly less irritating than SLS, but may cause more drying. Both SLS and SLES may cause potentially carcinogenic formations of nitrates and dioxins to form in shampoos and cleansers by reacting with other product ingredients. Large amounts of nitrates may enter the blood system from just one shampooing!
There has been a lot of industry publicity about the safety of SLS, SLES, and ALS. Here are the facts, from several sources including the "Alert Bulletin: by the CIR (Cosmetic Ingredient Review), the expert panel used by the CTFA (Cosmetics, Toiletries, & Fragrance Association)
Skin & Eye Irritant - "The Panel wishes to point out that these two ingredients (SLS & ALS) produce eye and/or skin irritation in experimental animals and in some human test subjects ...."
The panel then quotes from the 1983 JACT report ("Final Report on the Safety Assessment of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate", Journal of the American College of Toxicology, Vol. 2 #7, 1983) ..."the longer the ingredients stay in contact with the skin, the greater the likelihood of irritation, which may or may not be evident to the user ... (SLS)....causes severe epidermal changes to the area of the skin of mice to which it was applied. This study indicates a need for tumor-enhancing activity assays...studies of rate skin treated with (SLS) found heavy deposition of the detergent on the skin surface and in the hair follicles...Further, it has been reported that 1 percent and 5 percent SLS produced a significant number of conedones (pimples and blackheads) .... These two problems - possible hair loss and conedone formation -- along with proven irritancy, should be considered in the formulation of cosmetic products."
Ulcers and More - Another research paper shows that SLS has protein-denaturing properties, causing skin to separate and become inflamed. ("Denaturation of Epidermal Keratin by Surface Active Agents", Journal Invest Dermatology, 32-81; 1959. It is this property that may leave mucous membranes in the mouth open to microscopic damage. SLS has been shown to contribute to mouth and gastrointestinal ulcers ("Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and recurrent aphthous ulcers- a Preliminary Study" - ACTA Odontol Scan, 52, 1994: pp 257-259 and "The Effect of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate on Recurrent Aphthous Ulcers: A Clinical Study, Compendium 1997; 18(12), pp 1238-1240.) and yet SLS is an ingredient in most national brands of toothpaste.
An American Cancer Society news report quotes Keith Green, PhD., D.Sc. in refuting the internet rumor that SLS causes cancer: "Like many other chemicals, it is the manner of usage that is important. As long as you don't rub it all over your body and reapply it every hour for 24 hours, it's perfectly safe".."We did a study using diluted SLS as an eye drop. We put the test amount on the eye of a rabbit and after a certain amount of time we found that SLS got inside the tissues, heart, brain, lungs, but in very minute amounts,"...
People DO "rub it all over their bodies", many times a day while using many different personal care products, and don't rinse it off immediately when they sit in bubble bath. It is at a concentration of MORE than "1 percent" in most shampoos and liquid hand soaps, and other personal care products. SLS and / or SLES and/or ALS are usually the second ingredient listed, after water. Check the shampoo shelves of your local store, and read the labels.
Talc:
Carcinogen. Used by some 20 million women in their reproductive years; not to mention, it’s wide use on infants in the form of "baby powder". According to Dr. Epstein, M.D., "Talc should never be used on babies both because of its carcinogenicity and acute respiratory distress from inhalation that often results in death. There are at least 3 clear cut studies which have been published in the scientific literature that show routine application of talc in the genital area is associated with up to a 3 to 4 fold increase in the development of ovarian cancer."

Triclosan:
The latest rage in the arsenal of antibacterial chemicals, Triclosan is included in detergents, dish soaps, laundry soaps, deodorants, cosmetics, lotions, creams, toothpastes and mouthwashes. But, is Triclosan safe? The EPA registers it as a pesticide ("Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products in the Environment: Agents of Subtle Change?", Daughton et al, Environmental Health perspectives Vol. 107, Supplement 6, December 1999.) giving it high scores as a risk to both human health and the environment.
Triclosan is a chlorophenol, a class of chemicals suspected of causing cancer in humans. Externally, it can cause skin irritations, but since "phenols can temporarily deactivate the sensory nerve ending....contact with (Triclosan) often causes little or no pain...Internally, it can lead to cold sweats, circulatory collapse, convulsions, coma, and even death...stored in body fat, it can accumulate to toxic levels, damaging the liver, kidneys, and lungs, and can cause paralysis, sterility, suppression of immune function, brain hemorrhage, decreased fertility and sexual function, heart problems, and coma." (Dr. Angela McGehee, Bio-chemist; personal communication).
From the January 21, 2002 issue of "TIME MAGAZINE" "Unlike antibiotics, which are either found in nature or mimic the action of natural substances, antibacterial soaps contain triclosan and other synthetic chemicals that manufacturers once claimed could wipe out all bacteria. But in the past two years, researchers have shown that some germs can, at least in the laboratory, mutate to counter Triclosan's effects. That could be a problem because so many household products-from sponges to cutting boards to dishwashing liquids-now contain triclosan. Once a few germs develop resistance, they will be much more likely to survive in a world full of triclosan. Many researchers believe that prudent consumers, for their own good-not to mention the good of the planet--should keep triclosan products out of the house." (

Acne is an inflammation of the skin caused by trapped skin oil. The sebaceous glands are stimulated by adolescent hormones, stress, allergies, improper diet, and toxemia. The excess oil plugs the sebaceous gland ducts and bacteria begin to breed. Do not eat refined foods, processed sugars and starches such as candy, chocolate, coffee, fatty foods, fast foods, or dairy products. Eat mostly fresh raw fruits and vegetables. It may be helpful to go on a fasting program to help rid the body of toxic elements. You would do well to keep the skin clean by regular washing. This will free the oil ducts from plugs of hardened sebum. Using the herbs and nutrients listed in the REMEDIES section has been known to benefit this condition. Remember that all vitamins and minerals are important. Those listed have special significance for this condition. You should take a good quality high potency multi-vitamin/mineral each day, and additional amounts of the listed nutrients as well.

The roots of this herb act as an anti-microbial, and alterative. Echinacea is a powerful blood purifier and detoxifier. It can be quite effective in cases of chronic skin diseases such as psoriasis, acne, eczems, boils etc. This herb is a great tonic for the immune system. It stimulates the production of white blood cells, and also has the power to kill bacteria and viruses directly. This makes it an excellent remedy for any viral or bacterial infection or disease. It can be used to speed the recovery from colds or flu, or any lung or sinus condition such as allergies, especially when accompanied by mucus discharge. Externally, it can be used as a disinfectant for cuts and wounds. You can make a tea by placing two teaspoons full of the root in a pan and adding a cup of water. Boil for fifteen minutes. Drink thrice daily, or apply to wounds as needed.
Vitamin A is needed for the health of the mucous membranes, eyes, skin, hair, and nails. It assists in the digestion of proteins, and in the production of RNA. This vitamin also fortifies the immune system, and acts as an antioxidant. Vitamin A should not be taken in amounts over 25000 IU (15000 for children) on a regular basis. Those afflicted with liver disorders should not supplement their diet with this vitamin. Sources include pumpkin, dandelion, carrots, broccoli, garlic, cantaloupe, peppers, spinach, fish liver oil, and parsley.
Vitamin B3 is necessary for the health of the skin, digestive system, and nervous system. Niacin is also good for improving circulation due to its ability to dilate the capillaries. It can also reduce cholesterol levels in the blood. Sources include eggs, milk, cheese, corn, carrots, broccoli and beef.
Vitamin B5 is necessary for the production of adrenal hormones, the synthesis of cholesterol, and for antibody production. It aids in the metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It can be synthesized in the colon by healthy intestinal bacteria. Sources of B5 are whole wheat, eggs, fish, beef, fresh vegetables and milk.
Vitamin B6 is needed for the manufacture of red blood cells, antibodies, hydrochloric acid, RNA, and DNA. It is required for the digestion of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. B6 helps to maintain the body's sodium/potassium balance. Sources include carrots, spinach, peas, nuts, whole wheat, eggs, chicken, and fish
Vitamin C is necessary for collagen formation, and therefore stimulates the healing process, and promotes health of the skin, ligaments, and bones. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, and protects the body against the harmful effects of pollution. It strengthens the immune system and reduces the risks of infection. It is required for adrenal gland function and red blood cell formation. In large doses it has antihistamine properties. Vitamin C should be taken in dosages of 250mg to 1000mg four to eight times a day, depending on your personal needs. The vitamin is excreted from the body within 4 hours, and needs regular replacement. Those with a tendency to form kidney stones should not take large doses. Sources are fresh vegetables and fruits.
Vitamin E is a fat soluble anti-oxidant and protects the body from free radicals that result from the degeneration of fatty acids. Because of its anti oxidant properties this vitamin is very effective in slowing down the effects of aging. It also shields vitamin B and C from destruction by free radicals during the digestive process. Vitamin E helps to oxygenate the blood. It is a vasodilator and anticoagulant, and can lower the blood pressure and allow better circulation. It is necessary for cellular respiration and helps the systems thrive better on less oxygen. It is therefore very beneficial for the heart muscle. Vitamin E is also good for the reproductive system. Sources are whole grains, cold pressed vegetable oils, green vegetables, and eggs.
Linoleic Acid is the most important of the three essential fatty acids otherwise known as Vitamin F. The other two (linolenic and arachidonic) can be manufactured from linoleic acid if it is available. Unfortunately, many individuals are deficient in this vitamin. Linoleic Acid is vital for the health of the skin and mucous membranes. It aids in oxygen transport and cellular respiration. It lowers blood cholesterol and helps to prevent arteriosclerosis and heart disease. It is needed for the health of the glandular system, and assists in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus. It protects the skin from sunlight, and stimulates the growth of new cells. It isnecessary for the transformation of beta carotene to vitamin A and for a healthy reproductive system
Asparagus juice is an excellent diuretic. It should be mixed with carrot juice to buffer its effect. This juice is very effective in dissolving oxalic acid crystals in the kidneys and elsewhere. It is therefore beneficial as a remedy for rheumatoid disorders. It is most often used in conjunction with other juices when taken for therapeutic effects.
Blackberry juice is high in vitamin A and C. It is also a good source of potassium and phosphorus. It works well to squeeze blackberries through a cloth to strain out the seeds, which otherwise might tend to rapidly clog up a conventional juicer.
Cherries contain pits, and although smaller in size, are related to the plum. The Bing cherry is the most suitable for eating and juicing. Fresh cherries and cherry juice is a an excellent detoxifier. This fruit will make the system less acid and remove acid wastes from the body.
The black and red raspberry usually grow wild and are usually ready for picking in late June to late July. The black raspberry is very seedy and is best juiced by pressing through a cloth to filter out the seeds. The red raspberry is somewhat larger, with more juice and fewer seeds. The wild raspberry is to be preferred over the cultivated variety because it has a much higher nutritional content. Wild berries can contain up to ten times the mineral levels of the cultivated fruit.
The dried leaves of this plant act as a diuretic, an alterative, an anti-inflammatory, a tonic, and an astringent. Cleavers is an excellent diuretic, and is an effective remedy for urinary system infections and kidney stones. This herb is a powerful tonic for the lymphatic system, and can be used as a remedy for swollen lymph glands. It will help the body in the ridding of waste through the lymphatic and urinary systems. This detoxification effect will be of benefit in many skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczems. Externally, Cleavers can be used as a skin tonic and conditioner and can be applied as a remedy to skin disorders. These applications have also proven effective for arthritis and rheumatism. The juice of the fresh leaves can be consumed or applied as a lotion to the skin. A tea can be made from the dried herb by placing two teaspoons full in a cup and adding boiling water. Allow to steep for fifteen minutes.
roots of this plant are anti-flammatory, anti-catarrhal, anti-rheumatic, emetic, and stimulant in action. Poke root is a powerful stimulant for the lymphatic system. It can be used as a remedy for swollen glands, mumps, sore throat, tonsillitis,and laryngitis. It can also be a useful therapy for rheumatism. The fresh plant is poisonous, and should not be ingested raw. The dried root is very emetic and cathartic and should be taken only in small quantities. Large doses will induce vomiting and rapid evacuation of the bowels. To make the tea, place one half teaspoon full of the dried herb in a covered pan and add a cup of water. Boil for fifteen minutes.
1) WORKS FOR ME / DEFINITELY WORTH A TRY:
Prednisone. It’s a steroid. A dermatologist needs to prescribe
it for you. It’s main use isn’t for acne. But, it has an
effect of giving you baby like skin. I had cysts growing on top
of cysts. They were painful to the touch. I must have had at
least 10 cysts some growing on top of another cyst. 20mg
prednisone a day cleared me up in 4 days. I had baby skin. I
couldn’t believe it. Neither could anyone else. You have to
cycle off of it by taking 5 mg less per week. I’m surprised I
haven’t read any posts on it. Does anyone else have experience
with it?
Chinese herbal medicine. It is an extremely bitter tea is
prescribed by a doctor of Chinese medicine. The doctor usually
determines what herbs you need by feeling the strength of three
pulse points on your wrist. It’s pretty esoteric to westerners…
but to 1/5 of the world’s population it’s no stranger than
popping 2 aspirin. I drink this tea at night. This tea has
really cleared up my skin and has helped to cleanse my system
(the result is a really beautiful bowel movement in the morning).
Burt’s Bees Herbal Blemish Stick. This expensive little stick
has tea tree oil and other natural essences to fight blemishes.
It works but it costs a pretty penny. It stings a little and it
only irritates slightly compare to Benzoyl Peroxide.
Head and Shoulders Shampoo. Thanks to the poster who
recommended this trick. I’ve been using it everyday and it
definitely helps. I don’t apply it directly but let it drip
down during a shower.
Steaming hot towel. I use a steaming hot towel to clean my face
every night. I mix some hot faucet water with some boiling
water. Throw in about 4 ounces of aloe vera juice (this is
optional), and wash my face with it. I actually drape the
steaming wet towel on my face for about ten seconds to open up
the pores and let the nasty stuff out of my pores. Then I wipe
that nasty stuff out with the towel.
Oatmeal soap. I heard that soap made from animal fats will clog
up pores so I started using oatmeal soap. There’s two types the
dark one and the light one. I joined the dark side and used the
dark soap. It smells just like oatmeal. I noticed it gently
exfoliated dead skin and didn’t overdry. I bought mine at a
health food store for about a dollar and eighty cents.
Supplementing with Essential Fatty Acids. Got this ingenious
idea from
http://acnemiracle.anthill.com/ . You gotta pay 20
dollars for his findings but I think it’s worth it. He suggests
supplementing with Essential Fatty Acids, Vitamin A, C, and E,
Zinc, etc.
Fasting. I went on a 36 hour water fast. Was very weak and my
urine became bright yellow even though I was drinking gallons of
water. The urine is that color because of all the toxins the
body is clearing out from the cells and fat tissues. Definitely
do some research before undergoing one. I have a feeling if I
went on a 7 day water fast I would be completely cured from
acne. During my fast I noticed my skin wasn’t oily at all.
Before the fast my face was very oily.
Cutting out meat except for fish. If you can go totally
vegetarian… go for it. I can’t do that until I learn to cook…
I’m definitely not as active as I was before. I hardly get the
urge to work out now. But, I think clearer skin is worth it.
I’m not worried about protein. Vegetables have plenty of it.
Going on this diet I noticed I don’t have as much energy to do
physical activities but it hasn’t hurt my mental abilities one
bit. I now eat a diet with only 20% fish. The rest is a
vegetarian diet. I avoid as much as possible: fried foods,
dairy products, wheat (just in case I have an allergic reaction
to it), sugar, and salt (especially iodized). If you will eat
meat try to eat organically grown meat. Most meat is filled
with toxins ie. Adrenaline from the cow that knows it is about
to get sliced and diced, BGH (a growth hormone -- the cow is
fed all types of chemicals / steroids so it can grow faster, DDT
(from the grass the cow ate), etc.
Drinking freshly made juices. I bought a $200 Omega 1000 juicer
and started juicing carrots, green peppers, beets, apples,
parsely, etc. This helped give me a lot of the vitamins and
nutrients I need for clear skin.
Drinking wheatgrass juice. This juice can be considered the
nectar of the gods. It costs about $2 an ounce… think highway
robbery… but I notice I have fewer pimples the next day.
Getting enough sleep / Managing stress.
2) PRODUCTS THAT WILL WORK IF YOU CAN LIVE WITH THE SIDE
EFFECTS:
Benzamycin. This combination of benzoyl peroxide and
ertythromycin applied topically definitely decreases acne. But,
the side effect is red, cracked, supremely irritated skin.
Sulfoxyl Strong or Sulfoxyl Regular. Per my dermatologists
orders, I suffered through this product. It made my face as red
as a lobster and had only a slight effect in decreasing acne.
Besides making my face red it was also irritated.
Purpose cleanser. A foaming cl
