In the so-called “chemical-free” nail polishes contain toxins associated with infertility and even cancer. To such conclusion scientists from Harvard.
Supposedly chemical-free nail polishes can have toxic components associated with different problems ranging from infertility, and ending with the tumors. We are talking about the lucky category 3-Free, which are promoted as containing the “toxic trio” of DNBF, toluene and formaldehyde. However, they still contain ingredients associated with toxicity to the brain, and even fetal abnormalities. In the European Union, many chemicals banned for use in cosmetics since 2004, but a skilled paint manufacturers simply change one toxin to another.
Especially dangerous such cosmetics in the US, where it is allowed to put on the market without necessary checks. The researchers tested 40 different nail polishes, ranging from 3-Free and ending the 13-Free. These varnishes were made of red and pink shades are the most popular. Note that lucky category 3-Free was introduced for the first time in 2006, then this trend has spread. The paint manufacturers began to increase the number not contained in their ingredients, so I had a lucky 5-Free, 7-Free and 10-Free.
Scientists checked 40 varnishes produced 12 brands, the researchers call them. The results showed that all the “chemical” lucky still had dangerous ingredients, including those that disrupt hormonal activities like TPHP. These hormonal violators are associated with infertility, endometriosis, polycystic ovaries, and even some tumors, including breast cancer. (READ MORE)
