Feel free to move this if i'm in the wrong forum...
i just have to rant about ingredients that are added to products that people have been complaining about lately...for example, a day doesn't pass by at work where someone asks me about parabens, and why they're added to our products. from my understanding, they're added to preserve ingredients needed for the effectiveness of the product, but from what people have told me, they've been linked to causing cancer. supposedly, birth control, deodorant, wearing a bra to bed, etc. have been said carcinogens as well. what's the deal? i mean, granted there aren't any studies proving YES they are cancer-causing, or NO they aren't cancer-causing, but aren't some of these just old wives tales, or do ingredients like parabens/aluminum laureth sulfate/etc. REALLY affect a human body?
please someone enlighten me, because i can't keep standing around ignorant, and i want to be able to tell people the facts...TIA
