Dying to be beautiful—hair colorants and the cancer connection

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

As a culture obsessed with youth and beauty, it’s easy to fall into the trap of using hair dyes to cover those telltale gray hairs. However, using these commercial products is risky since the chemical formulations are linked with a range of cancers. Even so-called ‘natural’ dyes can compromise health. Where do we turn? With a measure of creativity and knowledge, do-it-yourself hair color can give you glossy, rich locks without the drawbacks of pre-made colorants.

 

Beware of youth in a bottle

 

In the quest for an ageless appearance, scores of women and men have substantially increased their risk of cancer through the use of commercial hair dyes. Concoctions of poisons that can lead to cancer of the breast, ovary and bladder, as well as leukemia, the hazards of hair colorants outweigh the temporary cosmetic benefits. According to NYR Natural News, several studies over the years have found:

 

“87 out of 100 breast cancer patients have used hair dye long-term.Women who changed their hair color (instead of simply masking the gray) tripled their risk of breast cancer.Ovarian cancer rates increase by 70 percent for those women who color their hair one to four times per year.Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and multiple myeloma rates quadruple in women who color their hair.
The use of hair dye is responsible for a 90 percent increase of multiple myeloma in men.”

 

It’s no wonder the incidence of serious disease has spiked with hair dye use considering most contain the following toxic chemicals: propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, isopropyl alcohol, phenylenediamine, para-toluenediamine, ortho-phenylenediamine, para-aminophenol and ortho-aminophenol, while ‘natural’ hair dyes can contain para-phenylenediamine (PPD) as well as heavy metals.

 

All in all, for the sake of health and well-being, it behooves us to seek out safer, less toxic alternatives than what is available commercially. Read more: http://www.thrive-living.net/2014/08/-hair-dye-breast-cancer-natural-products.html
