Offers a non-invasive way of gathering information on the internal biochemical environment of the body.

Have you ever thought about the chemical containing products that you use on your body or come in contact with everyday that may potentially have an effect on your health? These potentially harmful products are not FDA regulated. Since 1938 the FDA has allowed the cosmetic industry--manufacturers to self-regulate themselves. That means that these products can be marketed without government approval of ingredients, regardless of what tests show.

A few of the following chemicals that you may want to avoid are as follows:

• Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) & Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES): detergents and surfactants that pose serious health threats. Animals exposed to SLS experienced eye damage, depression, labored breathing, diarrhea, severe skin irritation and even death.
• Alcohol, Isopropyl (SD-40): a very drying and irritating solvent and dehydrator that strips your skin’s moisture and natural immune barrier, making you more vulnerable to bacteria, molds and viruses. A Consumer’s Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients says it may cause headaches, flushing, dizziness, mental depression, nausea, vomiting, narcosis, anesthesia, and coma.
• Propylene Glycol (PG) and Butylene Glycol: petroleum plastics, which act as "surfactants" (wetting agents and solvents). The active ingredient in antifreeze, PG is strong enough to remove barnacles from a boat.

Take a look at the ingredient list on some of the products you use everyday and count how many chemicals you come into contact on a daily basis.

It sure does and if you try water that has not been so called "recycled" you probably will agree. Most of the water on the market is recycled, reprocessed water that flows into our homes and businesses. Many water companies do an excellent job convincing us that their water comes from a pristine source. Buyer beware—most offer nothing more than processed tap or well water.

At Massie Family Chiropractic we drink water (Mountain ValleyÒ Spring—713-937-8630) that is not recycled or reprocessed and it is guaranteed to come from a contaminated-free spring. What we find most attractive about the water is that all of the mineral content is 100% bio-available. Most individuals believe that they do not want minerals in their water. This is very true for most of your recycled/reprocessed waters, however if the minerals are bio-available they are completely used by your body. What better way to get your minerals than how nature intended—Don’t you agree?
