Naturally Divine is committed to providing information about the possible side effects from the on-going use of synthetic chemicals in our personal care products. 

From the following information pages, you will be able to educate yourself about these chemicals and then make your own informed decisions about what you place onto your body. 

Consider these facts!

It is estimated that on a daily basis; 3 personal care products are used on babies (some numerously, such as nappy cream) and children, men use 10 personal care products and women use 6 cosmetics and 13 personal care products; some products are used several times a day, such as lipstick!

If we assume that each product may contain only 2 carcinogens, this results in daily exposures to 6 different avoidable carcinogens for babies and children, 20 for men and 38 for women.

While ingredients are listed on product labels, there are no warnings as to the cancer risks from any of these ingredients.  You would think in this day and age, when cancer and other serious illnesses are rising dramatically, that information regarding these chemicals would be readily available, so we could all make informed decisions about our own health.

Who? in their right mind, would knowingly put themselves and their families at risk of these avoidable cancer risks, if all of this information was available!

It is extremely sad, that the all-mighty dollar of the powerful multi-billion dollar industries, is seen to be more important than human safety!

Everything is made of chemicals and not all synthetic chemicals are evil.  After all, in medicinal form they are desireable, when the alternative is certain and rapid death!  We can't escape all artificial chemicals, but it is so easy to cut down how many enter our bodies unecessarily, where most become permanently trapped.

In order to get a small understanding of what chemicals are doing to us, a worldwide study was completed on 40 000 chemicals (there are at least 100 000 out there).  The study concluded that 20 624 were dangerous.  Of this number 9 538 were acutely dangerous when consumed.  A further 9 668 caused allergic reactions; 1 678 were mutagenic (caused birth defects), 642 caused cancer and 8 730 were dangerous in a water environment!!!

Alarming Statistics
According to a report published in late 1999 by the Australian Institute of Health and Wellness;

1 in 3 men and 1 in 4 women will develop cancer at some stage in their life.  By the year 2012, they predict 1 in every 2 people will contract some form of cancer!

1 in every 2 men and 1 in every 3 women will suffer from coronary heart disease!

1 in every 4 men and 1 in every 5 women will have a stroke!

1 in every 6 will suffer diabetes!

A staggering 2 thirds of us are expected to contract a terminal illness!

That is of course if we don't take steps to prevent this!  Why take unnecessary risks, when there are natural, chemical free, SAFE, affordable products out there, such as Naturally Divine?
