subject: Exactly What Do Rodents With Cancer Of The Skin Have To Do With Natural Skin Care? [print this page] In the event that article title has you wondering a little then continue reading, because mice with cancer of the skin have lots to do with natural face skin care. A study was done where a number of moisturisers, each that contained Sodium Laurel Sulphate (SLS), were applied to the skin of mice five times per day for 17 weeks. As a consequence of the research it was concluded that the use of these moisturisers to the skin of the mice caused a statistically important increase in the rate of skin cancer in the mice who had the moisturizers applied, and particularly that this application "increased the total number of histologically characterized tumors by 69%". What surprised the researchers was that they were not actually studying the connection between using those moisturizers on skin cancer in rodents, they were really researching something different. However they were so surprised by the outcome they then ran the same test using moisturisers that didn't contain Sodium Laurel Sulphate, and found no statistical rise in the incidence of cancer of the skin in the rodents. This is scary stuff. Sodium Laurel Sulphate can be found in an array of our personal care products such as shampoos and soaps as well as many moisturizers. The possible health risks of SLS have been recognized for a while. Way back in 1983 the Journal of the American College of Toxicology reported a study about the effects of SLS on rabbits, and reported irritation to the eyes, severe irritation to the skin and at a concentration of 15% around 20% of rabbits exposed to Sodium Laurel Sulphate ended up dying. You'd expect therefore that none of our personal care products such as moisturizers would include Sodium Laurel Sulphate. The unfortunate fact is they do, together with a number of other dangerous chemical ingredients. Equally sad is that there are very effective natural moisturizers obtainable such as avocado oil and macadamia oil that are highly successful at moisturising skin and which are completely safe. But the big name anti aging companies avoid using them because they are more expensive. Actually so many potentially dangerous chemical ingredients are now found in such a wide range of our personal care products like soaps and shampoos, makeup and skincare products such as moisturisers that there are entire organisations set up to combat this. There is a powerful move happening amongst customers that are now avoiding mainstream products containing these chemical ingredients towards much less dangerous, and in some cases more successful natural products that don't contain potentially risky chemical ingredients. And of course where there are customers voting with their feet you will find businesses catering for this trend by producing top quality natural skin care products that won't contain such chemical components as Sodium Laurel Sulphate.
