EDTA in cosmetics curse to you

EDTA a chemical curse to you & environment

EDTA is in many products as a preservative, to stabilize it, or to enhance the foaming action. It’s also used as a chelating agent, which means it us used to precipitate out metals from the formulation (if tap water were used to make the formulation instead purified water, for example, and it can bind with metals dissolved in your shower water).

Why is it harmful for you?

Tetrasodium ETDA is made from ethylenediamine, formaldehyde—a known carcinogen according to the National Cancer Institute—and sodium cyanide (which is made from the toxic gas hydrogen cyanide). Even though, it has been scientifically not proven that EDTA itself is carcinogenic, it is better to be on the safe side of this ingredient.

EDTA is also a penetration enhancer. That means it breaks down the skin’s protective barrier, making it easier for other potentially harmful ingredients in the formula to sink deeper into your tissues.

Why is it harmful for the environment?

A study conducted in 2003 brings EDTA use under scrutiny. The compound has one of the highest concentrations in inland European waters. In natural environments studies detect poor biodegradability. It is concluded that EDTA behaves as a persistent substance in the environment and that its contribution to heavy metals bioavailability and remobilization processes in the environment is a major concern.

side effects of mineral oil in cosmetics
18 May
Excipients, Wellness Products

Mineral Oils are all but good for your skin

Mineral oil is a colorless and odorless oil that’s made from petroleum—as a by-product of the distillation of petroleum to produce gasoline. It’s long been used as a common ingredient in lotions, creams, ointments, and cosmetics. It’s lightweight and inexpensive, and helps reduce water loss from the skin.

Why are they harmful for you?

  1. It May be Contaminated with Toxins

The World Health Organization (WHO) has found that this unpurified form contains contaminants that have been linked in studies to an increased risk of cancer. A 2011 report by the National Toxicology Program, for example, stated, “Untreated and mildly treated mineral oils are known to be human carcinogens based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in humans.”

Cosmetics, on the other hand, use “cosmetic grade” mineral oil, which is more purified than technical grade. Studies have not linked this oil with cancer, but scientists have expressed concern about it. A 2011 study, for example, reported that contamination could be a relevant source of “mineral oil contamination.” Researchers stated, “There is strong evidence that mineral oil hydrocarbons are the greatest contaminant of the human body, amounting to approximately 1 gram per person. Possible routes of contamination include air inhalation, food intake, and dermal [skin] absorption.”

The went on to remove fat specimens from women who underwent cesarean sections, and also collected milk samples from the women after delivery. They found that both fat and milk samples were contaminated with mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons—and stated that these compounds likely accumulated over time from repeated exposure. “Cosmetics might be a relevant source of the contamination,” they stated.

An earlier 2008 study noted a similar concern about “mineral oil contamination,” and stated that it has “not been proven convincingly” that this contaminant can be tolerated without health concerns. “It has been shown that the molecular mass of the mineral paraffins [another name for mineral oil] resorbed by our body is higher than assumed by the safety evaluation of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Further, probably a majority of the mineral oil products are not ‘white paraffin oils’: they easily contain 30% aromatic component, a substantial proportion being alkylated adding to the health risk.”

In lay terms, that means that these scientists are concerned that much of the mineral oil we are exposed to on a daily basis does contain contaminants that could affect our health.

  1. It Clogs Pores

Mineral oil is considered “comedogenic,” which means it can clog your pores and increase the risk of acne and blackheads. The more refined, the less comedogenic, but there’s no way to know how purified the mineral oil is that’s in the product.

Even high grade of mineral oil can trap ingredients in your pores, however, because the oil is an “occlusive agent”—which means that it forms a physical barrier over your skin to reduce moisture loss. So if you already have bacteria on your skin (most likely), or if you have other ingredients in your product that can clog pores, even the most refined mineral oil will keep all of that close and tight to your skin, increasing risk of breakouts.

  1. It Doesn’t Give Your Skin Anything Beneficial

It’s not infusing it with nutrients. It’s not providing hydration that actually goes into the skin where it counts. It’s just sitting there on the top of the skin preventing moisture loss.

That may have been okay fifty years ago, but today we have so many better alternatives! We have natural plant extracts, nut butters, natural oils, and more that provide so many benefits, including essential fatty acids that plump up skin, antioxidants to fight free radical damage, and nutrients to help maintain skin firmness. Why settle for a film made from petroleum when you can do so much more for your skin?

PEG in Cosmetics

PEGs (Polyethylene Glycols) – Friends or Foes

PEGs (polyethylene glycols) are petroleum-based compounds that are widely used in cosmetics as thickeners, solvents, softeners, and moisture-carriers. PEGs are commonly used as cosmetic cream bases. They are also used in pharmaceuticals as laxatives.

Why are they harmful for you?

Depending on manufacturing processes, PEGs may be contaminated with measurable amounts of ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane. The International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies ethylene oxide as a known human carcinogen and 1,4-dioxane as a possible human carcinogen. Ethylene oxide can also harm the nervous system. While 1,4-dioxane can be removed from cosmetics during the manufacturing process by vacuum stripping, but there is no easy way for consumers to know whether products containing PEGs have undergone this process. In a study of personal care products marketed as “natural” or “organic” (uncertified), U.S. researchers found 1,4-dioxane as a contaminant in 46 of 100 products analyzed.

While carcinogenic contaminants are the primary concern, PEG compounds themselves show some evidence of genotoxicity and if used on broken skin can cause irritation and systemic toxicity. The industry panel that reviews the safety of cosmetics ingredients concluded that some PEG compounds are not safe for use on damaged skin (although the assessment generally approved of the use of these chemicals in cosmetics). Also, PEG functions as a “penetration enhancer,” increasing the permeability of the skin to allow greater absorption of the product — including harmful ingredients.

Why are they harmful for the environment?

California Environmental Protection Agency has classified Ethylene oxide as a developmental toxicant based on evidence that it may interfere with human development. 1,4-dioxane is also persistent. In other words, it doesn’t easily degrade and can remain in the environment long after it is rinsed down the shower drain.

avoid products which contain Parabens

Why you should avoid products which contain Parabens?

Michelle Scott-Lynch, founder of paraben-free haircare brand Bouclème says, ‘Parabens are a type of preservative, first introduced in the 1950s. They’re used to prolong shelf life in many health and beauty products by preventing the growth of mould and bacteria within them.’

Why are they harmful for you?

In 2004, a British study found traces of five parabens in the breast tissue of 19 out of 20 women studied. The study didn’t prove that parabens can cause cancer but identified that the parabens were able to penetrate the skin and remain within tissue.

Parabens are believed to disrupt hormone function by mimicking estrogen. Too much estrogen can trigger an increase in breast cell division and growth of tumours, which is why paraben use has been linked to breast cancer and reproductive issues.

Why are they harmful for the environment?

A scientific study reported that parabens have been found for the first time in the bodies of marine mammals. Researchers believe that it is likely these parabens come from products we use that are washed into the sewage system and released into the environment.

आयुर्वेद बीमारी की जड़ तक जाकर इसके मूल कारण का निवारण करता है । प्राचीन काल में ऋषि तरह-तरह की जड़ी बूटियों का प्रयोग करके दवाइयाँ बनाते थे । आयुर्वेदिक दवाइयाँ बनाते समय, उपयोग में आने वाली समस्त जड़ी बूटियों का गहनता से (फायदे अथवा नुकसान ) अध्ययन किया जाता है ।

जड़ी बूटियों द्वारा बनायी हुई दवाइयों का कोई दुष्प्रभाव नहीं होता । आयुर्वेद में जड़ी बूटियों का अहम महत्व है । आयुर्वेद की ताकत कभी कभी चौंका देती है । एक छोटी सी जड़ी बूटी से गॉल ब्लैडर एवं किडनी के पत्थर तक समाप्त हो जाते है ।

GreeenCure’s quick guide to common diaper queries

If you are a mommy-to-be or have a baby at home then you definitely know how soft and smooth a baby’s skin tends to be. The gentle baby skin is often prone to severe irritation. All thanks to the baby bums’ 24*7 exposure to diapers, the tiny buttocks work well to act as a breeding ground for bacteria that breed on the excrement and moisture.

Therefore, a diaper rash cream becomes an indispensable part of an infant’s skin care routine. GreenCure Wellness presents to you, NappCure anti-rash cream that’s specially devised for soft baby bums. The active ingredient, Hamamelis flower prevents rashes from reappearing. Through this blog post, undry Wellness aims to answer all questions that you may have about diaper rash creams and impart knowledge as to why they’re important.

What is the role of an anti-rash cream?

The dual action of a baby anti-rash cream works well to-

1. Treat diaper rashes:

Diaper rash creams are devised to heal those harsh rashes. Anti diaper rash cream acts to moisturize and soothe the skin by acting as a barrier to the moisture that allows the skin to heal and further stops the bacteria from multiplying.

2. Prevent diaper rashes:

Using diaper rash creams on to the baby bum when there do not exist any visible signs of rashes is known to prevent nappy rashes. All thanks again, to the barrier that they form between the baby’s skin and the causes of bacteria viz. excreta, moisture etc.

Where should an anti diaper rash cream be put and what safety considerations need to be kept in mind?

An anti-rash cream primarily needs to be applied onto the cheeks of the buttocks. One may also apply the cream around the anus and in between the cheeks of the buttocks if rashes tend to develop in your child’s genital area.
While diaper creams are safe for use on bare skin and widely used worldwide by parents, there exist a certain things one needs to be aware of. One must carefully go through the composition details of the cream for anti rash creams generally contain potential allergens. Do not use baby powder in conjunction with your cream. One must take a note of the fact that the cream should not be applied inside the vagina of a girl child. One must always wash their hands using soap and water before and after applying diaper cream.

Should an anti-rash cream be applied at every diaper change?

Whether you use diaper rash cream post every diaper change or not is purely a matter of personal choice. Some mothers use the diaper rash cream after every diaper change as a preventative measure while others use it as and when they feel it is needed. One must use diaper rash cream when-

• the baby’s butt has a red appearance.
• the baby is suffering from diarrhea, so as to prevent irritation from frequent stool.
• the baby has a sensitive skin type

What is NappCure? How is it different from other available anti-rash creams?

NappCure is an anti diaper rash cream from the house of GreenCure Wellness which brings for you specially formulated range of wellness products. Formulated by German scientists, Ayurveda lies at the heart of GreenCure’s Wellness products. This Western meets traditional fusion makes GreenCure your ideal choice. The entire GreenCure Wellness range is EDTA, Paraben, PEG, PPG, Mineral and Paraffin Oil free and hence, ensures natural care throughout.

NappCure is an anti diaper rash cream specially devised for soft baby skin. It is different from other similar products on offer in the sense that it is fully natural. Its active ingredients (not to forget, the star ingredient Hamamilis flower that nourishes the cream and the baby skin with softness) work instantly to soothe inflammation. GreenCure Wellness’ NappCure is safe for application on to the skin of the child irrespective of gender. Moreover it is non greasy, the fact that makes sure the mess remains out of your baby’s bottoms. NappCure not only treats rashes but also prevents them.

How to apply NappCure anti-rash cream?

As important as choosing a proper diaper cream is its correct application. Following steps should be followed-

1. Remove the dirty diaper.
2. Clean the butt area and apply a dime-sized amount of anti-rash cream over baby’s butt.
3. Cover the butt with clean diaper.
4. Rinse your hands properly.
5. In case the cream is ineffective on the rashes, it is advised to consult a pediatrician.

When it comes to babies, we at GreenCure understand that nothing but the best would do. Here’s to bidding adieu to harsh rashes because no nappy-rash bums are happy bums.

Herbal Remedies vs Conventional Medicine: What to opt for?

Herbal vs Conventional

Herbal Remedies vs Conventional Medicine: What to opt for?

Treatment of illnesses revolves around two main philosophies. These two approaches are called the conventional and the holistic approach. The conventional approach involves the use of prescription drugs whereas the holistic approach makes use of herbal remedies. Most of our lives, we’ve been using pharmaceutical drugs but lately, we have been hearing terms such as natural and organic, which have us completely drooling over them.

Like they say, every coin has two sides; both conventional and holistic approaches have both pros and cons. In this blog, we’ll discuss and differentiate the conventional approach from the holistic approach in detail, thereby helping you hush all the opinions that you may have about the prescribed medicine and the alternative medicine.

We differentiate herbs and drugs on the basis of the following –

1. Regulation

The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is the national regulatory body that takes care of the regulation of Indian pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

Generally, the Department of AYUSH acts as the regulatory authority and governs the manufacture and marketing of herbal drugs after obtaining their manufacturing license.

2. Effectiveness

Prescription drugs undergo a series of thorough trials before they are let out into the market. During the trial, their quality, safety and effectiveness is evaluated. If the disease is rightly detected and an appropriate prescription is prescribed, effectiveness can be ensured.

Though there do not exist reports, the word of mouth evidently credits natural supplements to effectively cure/treat diseases. This result owes to the fact that natural/herbal products are made using products from nature and do not contain any harmful chemicals or toxins in them.

3. Negative effects

The drugs are evaluated on the basis of how they react with other drugs and how effective they are on different age groups, races and genders. In order to avoid any adverse reactions, several strict laws have to be complied with before the drug finally hits the market.

The known negative side effects of natural supplements are comparatively lesser than compared to those of pharmaceutical drugs.

4. Cost

Prescription drugs are costly. With the average audience now popping a pill on a daily basis for problems such as blood pressure, diabetes and such; the monthly budget of a house tends to shoot up.

On the other hand, natural supplements, generally cost less, thereby saving quite a lot of money.

So, really, which is better for us to take?

We understand that you, as users want nothing but the safest, the most effective, and the most economical one. The route that you wish to proceed is dependent on your choice. You yourself have to make the necessary research and evaluate all the pros and cons.
