Many consumers are boycotting Kellogg’s due to their refusal to address concerns about toxic ingredients in their cereals that are banned in other countries, such as Canada, the UK, Europe, and Australia. These ingredients include but aren’t limited to:
1. BHT (Butylated Hydroxy Toluene)
2. Artificial Food Dyes (like Red 40, Yellow 5, and Yellow 6)
3. Propyl Gallate - a preservative linked to health concerns.
4. Azodicarbonamide - an ingredient used in baking and banned in some regions.
Despite offering safer versions of their products abroad, Kellogg’s continues to include these substances in their U.S. products, prompting a growing movement for change among consumers and advocates alike.
Together, we can push for food safety regulations that prioritize our health and well-being. Your voice matters—let it be heard!

Reducing chemical exposure with safe and effective products is part of my anti cancer defense along with an active lifestyle and healthy diet. That’s part of why I’m a @beautycounter Consultant and @colorstreet Stylist. I am donating the commissions of my October sales of safe, aluminum free, Beautycounter Clean Deo + Refills (ahem - yes this is a refillable deodorant that ACTUALLY WORKS!) to Breast Cancer Prevention Partners for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There are things we can control like deodorant, and things we cannot control like genetic predisposition. Truth is, MANY of the products we use on our bodies everyday (not just deodorant/antiperspirant) are full of harmful ingredients like carcinogens, endocrine disruptors, phthalates and parabens. One tip - IF YOU SEE FRAGRANCE LISTED AS AN INGREDIENT DON’T USE THAT PRODUCT - anything can be considered a proprietary ingredient and hidden within the “Fragrance Loophole”. So your “Phthalate Free” Shampoo may actually have phthalates in it if fragrance is listed as an ingredient. Another side note - I hate and would never ever ever knowingly support any pinkwashed practices or products. I have no tolerance for plastic pink GARBAGE (or any other color for any other cancer or cause) made out of carcinogenic and hazardous ingredients. There is a fine line between raising awareness and contributing to the problem when it comes to this. Think before you pink! 🧖🏽♀️ 🧬 🌱 . . . #breastcancerawarenessmonth #thinkbeforeyoupink #pinkwashing #ethics #environmentalcancer #cancerresearch #chemicalexposure #safedeodorant #reducingchemicalexposure #fragrance #ingredients #toxicingredients #toxicproducts #refillabledeodorant #womeninscience #womeninhealthcare #womeninsustainability #findthecause #breastcancerprevention #preventbreastcancer #cancerrisk #anticancer #pinktober #bcworks # #sustainablestyle #safeselfcare #thebestdeffense #deffense (at Themis and Thread) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVF3KLmLqnt/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Dunning-Kruger Effect is a strange but unfortunately common phenomenon in which humans get a little bit of info then think they know everything about it — and are willing to argue as if they do. (That’s how we get anti-vaxxers, covidiots and people who think sunscreen is poison.) Swipe left for additional posts to check out from @emersonbrophy, @theecowell and @waltermasterson that explain in other excellent ways. . Real experts in any given complex field understand that although they know some things, there’s a lot they still don’t know and have to learn. They understand that definitive statements aren’t always possible, that sometimes nuance needs to be taken into account to get to an acceptable answer. And they are willing to consider new evidence and their own biases to adjust their beliefs as they acquire new information. . #dunningkruger #cognitivebias #misinformation #cleanbeauty #toxicbeauty #toxicingredients #misinfluencers #fearmongering #sciencenotfear #factsnotfear #experts #scicomm #wearamask #stayhome #staysafe #Beautygeeks https://www.instagram.com/p/CN2pnG9rPps/?igshid=15zxq4b32e163

Hey Guys! Summer is almost at its end and hair needs to have a level up pampering treatment, after all that Sun, Sea and shower 🚿 So I thought to prepare something gentle and nice to wash my hair in these days and to try out something new! So I prepared this #recipe and I recorded the preparation for you! 💚🌾✨ • In this video tutorial I show you how to make your own #zerowaste #naturalshampoo at home with feeeew simple ingredients✨🌱💚 • Can you believe that you will need just 6 things that you have in your kitchen to make it? 🙌🙈💚 When I tried I said "wow, it actually really works!" and I noticed that my hair were brighter than usual on roots. This natural shampoo is very gentle on hair but is perfect to clean well the scalp. You will have also fortified hair thanks to the natural proteins of chickpeas, cleaner hair thanks to honey and sugar and brighter hair with flaxseeds gel and vinegar💚🌾✨ • What I like the most is the fact that is super effective and it's completely #toxicfree since it does not contain ANY #toxicingredients (that unfortunately most of all shampoos have)! 🌱🌾✨ Plus it's completely #biodegradable #pantbased (with the exception of honey) and #earthfriendly. No more plastic on our earth! 🌏🌈🌾💚 • Just few tips: remember to apply this mixture on wet hair and massage it very well con scalp for some minutes. The massage stimulates blood circulation in the scalp and helps you cleaning it. Add a bit more of water and continue the massage the scalp, then proceed with all hair. After this operation you can rinse everything very well until the water is clear. Last rinse with 2 spoons of vinegar and water will make your hair super shiny 😍✨ • You will find all ingredients here in comments 💜 try out and let me know if you find this shampoo very effective like I do. 🌾💚✨ Anytime DM me for suggestions, always super cool to chat with all of you and super happy to share 🌈 • Are you ready for your #greenrevolution? #wowsoaps #soapmakers #soapmaking #soapbars #soaphandmade #soapmakersofinstagram #soaplove #soapcrafting #soaprelaxing #soapmaker #diysoap #diyproject #diysoapmaking #diycraft #diyideas #diyvideos #naturalhair #ecologic https://www.instagram.com/p/CEPCcrFHY8d/?igshid=1d14m720e58t1

Avoid These 15 Toxic Ingredients Found In Everyday Body Care Products
In order for commercially available products to be profitable, companies must sometimes use synthetic materials that have a long shelf life and can be mass produced at a low rate. Products with an unnaturally long shelf life can be detrimental because they don’t break down easily and cause issues in the organisms that absorb them but can’t utilize them properly. The only way to be completely sure your products are safe to use is to make them yourself.
Ingredients Found In Everyday Products That Are Unsafe To Use
Surfactants. Surfactants are what make different products lather with suds. Soap suds don’t occur much naturally, and is often the result of a chemical agent. Surfactants aren’t typically harmful to humans, but they can be toxic to aquatic life given the quantity of soap being washed down the drain every day. In large quantities they can work their way into the food chain and ultimately damage enzyme activity in animals and humans. It’s better to avoid such products. Preservatives. Soaps and shampoos don’t normally come with expiration dates. That’s because they’re full of preservatives to prevent the growth of yeast, mold, and bacteria. But the problem is they don’t break down easily and they accumulate very rapidly. Once they work their way into the food chain, preservatives can have a range of toxicity problems for both humans and the environment because they’re designed to kill things, including healthy bacteria. Fragrance. The term fragrance, aka parfum, is often used as an umbrella term for all kinds of chemicals (at least 3,000) to sneak into your products. About 95% of chemicals used in synthetic fragrances are derived from petroleum. Unfortunately, many of these have been linked to cancer. Triclosan. This chemical is most often found in antibacterial soap. Recent studies have found that triclosan actually promotes the growth of bacteria resistant to antibiotic cleansers. It also creates dioxin, a carcinogen that has been found in high levels in human breast milk. Dioxins have disruptive effects on the endocrine system and negatively affect thyroid functions. It’s also the primary toxic component of Agent Orange, an herbicide used by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War. Parabens. These ingredients are estrogen mimickers—meaning that once applied to the skin, they enter the bloodstream, and the body mistakes them for estrogen. When the body thinks there is an abnormally high amount of estrogen present in the bloodstream, it reacts by increasing fat deposits, causing early onset of puberty, and spurring reproductive difficulties in both men and women. Sulfates. These chemicals are used to produce lather and bubbles in soap. Some common sulfates are SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) and SLES (sodium laureth sulfate). Sulfates strip the skin of its natural oils and increase penetration of the skin’s surface. They are also irritants for people with sensitive skin or eczema.When used in toothpaste, it can cause canker sores for some people. Phthalates. Phthalates are a group of chemicals that are classified as endocrine disrupting compounds and have been linked to a variety of health issues including birth defects. Exposure to phthalates has been linked to changes in genital formation, early puberty, type 2 diabetes, and behavioral problems in humans. Unfortunately, more than 470 million pounds of phthalates are produced each year, and they can be found in a wide range of products from soft plastics and pesticides, to wallpaper and cosmetics. Propylene glycol. Named by the American Contact Dermatitis Society as the 2018 allergen of the year, this petroleum based material is commonly found in foods, cosmetics, fragrances, and pharmaceuticals. Mostly, it’s used as a texturizer and as an emulisfier to prevent ingredients from separating. In large quantities, studies have shown that proplylene glycol can cause damage to the central nervous system, liver, and heart. amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit0"; amzn_assoc_search_bar = "true"; amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "mercuriousmin-20"; amzn_assoc_search_bar_position = "bottom"; amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "search"; amzn_assoc_ad_type = "smart"; amzn_assoc_marketplace = "amazon"; amzn_assoc_region = "US"; amzn_assoc_title = "Shop Related Products"; amzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = "natural care products"; amzn_assoc_default_category = "All"; amzn_assoc_linkid = "a68e45e0a2f2916107b248892b041169"; Ethanolamines. Ethanolamines are used in cosmetics as an emulsifier, foaming agent, and pH balancer, and have been linked to liver tumors. Legally, ethanolamines can only be used in products intended to be rinsed off, but studies show that even when rinsed, 52-68% of it can still remain on the upper layers of skin, which is a highly absorbent organ. Octinoxate. As an inexpensive chemical to produce, octinoxate is commonly used as a sunblocker in sunscreens and other products that offer UV protection. It’s so easily absorbed by the skin that is has been found in urine, blood, and breast milk, and can even carry other chemicals with it. Studies have been done that show octinoxate causes complete bleaching of coral reefs, even at very low concentrations. Many places around these reefs have banned this chemical, among others, and even require biodegradable sunscreens. Oxybenzone. Oxybenzone is another popular ingredient found in at least 80% of UV blocking cosmetics. While it absorbs harmful UV rays, studies show that the skin absorbs it, and can stay in the body for an unknown amount of time. While in the body, oxybenzone mimics hormones and can disrupt the endocrine system, causing endometriosis; a disorder in which tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus, grows outside of it. The Federal Centers for Disease control and Prevention reported oxybenzone has been found in more than 96% of the U.S. population. Formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is widely used as a preservative and a bonding agent. It is a natural occurring chemical produced in small amounts by most organisms, but exposure to elevated levels has been linked to cancer.Many preservatives used in cosmetics release formaldehyde as a gas or vapor and can be easily absorbed by the body. Some of these preservatives include: quaternium-15, DMDM hydantoin, imidazolidinyl urea, diazolidinyl urea, polyoxymethylene urea, sodium hydroxymethylglycinate, bromopol,and glyoxal. Glycerin. The majority of commercially available toothpaste contains glycerin. Glycerin isn’t toxic, but it’s a soap that strips your mouth of it’s natural mucous membrane and leaves a thin film. This film eventually weakens tooth enamel by preventing minerals in your saliva from interacting with it. It can take up to 30 days of not using glycerin for it to completely wash away from tooth enamel. Artificial colorings. Most dyes are a petroleum derived product. Certain ones labeled “D&C” have been approved by the FDA to be used in drugs, cosmetics, and toothpaste, but not food. These dyes have been linked to health concerns ranging from asthma to skin rashes, but if you can’t use them in foods, why would you put it in your mouth at all? Stay away from toothpastes containing any artificial dyes. Titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide is used as coloring agent to make toothpaste, soaps, and other things white. Most reports show it’s safe and not absorbed by the skin, but there are no studies that measure absorption by oral tissues. It’s only purpose is to make toothpaste white, so why risk it?

One of the worst ingredients in beauty products is fragrance and that’s because we have no idea what comprises it. Fragrance is protected by trade-secret laws so companies do not have to disclose what the exact components are. It can be a mix of up to 500 different chemicals. • It is a skin irritant that causes discoloration, rashes, and breakouts. Some ingredients that make up fragrance are known neurotoxins (poisons that wreak havoc on our nervous system) and allergens. Take a look at the ingredient labels on your products. I guarantee you’ll find this toxic ingredient listed on many of them. • • • #cleanbeauty #toxicingredients #cleanupyourbeautyroutine #cleanbeautyrescue #naturalbeauty #nomoredirtylooks #cosmeticindustry #cosmetics #makeup #skincare #fragrance #parfum #perfume #chemicals #neurotoxin #ingredientlabels #tradesecrets #greenbeauty #organicbeauty #ecobeauty (at Nashville, Tennessee)
