Can cosmetics that you put on hard in the morning and evening to look pretty cause disease? I would like to know what this means, but in fact, some ingredients in cosmetics can cause diseases because they are not excreted well when accumulated in the human body. In particular, some preservative ingredients can cause cancer, and it is impossible to blindly believe that they are natural ingredients.
Originally, cosmetics contain various nutrients and moisture at the same time, so they are easy to become a breeding ground for microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and fungi. Preservatives inhibit the development of microorganisms and prevent chemical change or contamination.Therefore, it is essential for the production of cosmetics.
Parabens, developed in the 1930s, have antiseptic effectsNot only is it excellent, but it is cheap and easy to add to products, enabling mass production of cosmetics. However, parabens are a representative chemical that has been steadily raised since the 1990s. Let’s look at three ingredients in cosmetics that have the potential to cause disease and accumulate in the human body.
◆ Parabens > cause breast cancer and infertility
“Paraben” Ability to remove contaminants such as yeast, mold, and bacteriaIt is excellent and is included in most cosmetics and skin care products such as shampoos, cleansers, lotions, and sunscreens. Once in the body, it is not discharged well and accumulates in the internal organs or muscles. In 2004, the relevant research team Chemical preservatives of parabens found in breast cancer tissuepublished research results.
Parabens have the potential to cause several diseases, including breast cancer, even when used in small amounts. According to data from the Korea Food and Drug Administration, it causes dermatitis and is toxic to the digestive and respiratory organs. There are also research results that cause endometriosis, cause infertility, and increase the possibility of menstrual cramps.
◆ Phenoxyethanol > Men secrete hormones, women affect the uterus
‘Phenoxyethanol’ is being used as an alternative ingredient after research results that parabens are toxic have been announced and consumers have turned away. However, phenoxyethanol was tested by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. A preservative synthesized with ethylene oxide, which is defined as a first-class carcinogen.all. It can cause allergies, and if it is absorbed into the skin for a long time and accumulates in the body, Men have problems with hormone secretion, women have problems with the uteruscan occur It can also irritate the skin mucosa and cause skin inflammation and allergies.
◆ Plant-extracted natural ingredients > Natural toxicity, long-term overuse prohibited
Recently, there are many cosmetics made using natural preservatives. mostly Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Lavender, Cypress Extracts etc. are used. However, it is dangerous to think that natural ingredients will not have any risks. Natural ingredients extracted from plants are required in large amounts to maintain the preservative power of cosmetics, but the content standards are not announced.
Natural ingredients derived from plants are also toxic, it can cause problems if you use a large amount for a long period of time or if it does not suit your skin. It is necessary to recognize that the more cosmetics are used, the greater the risk of exposure to chemicals, and to select products whose safety has been sufficiently verified.
