How do we choose the shampoo that we use? Or for that matter, any of the cosmetics that are on the dresser? It is funny to hear the answers: Many of us will answer that it is the strength and quality of the advertisement campaign that did the trick.

 

For some it is the shape of the bottle, for others it is the fragrance and yet others fall prey to door-to-door salesmen. How many of us actually look at the ingredients on the back of the bottle to get an idea as to what you are exposing your body to?

 

How to Choose Shampoos – What Ingredients to Avoid

 

Some of the harmful ingredients that are added to shampoos are listed below.

 

·         Formaldehyde: Used as a preservative

·         Coal Tar: Found in anti-dandruff shampoos

·         SLS's Sodium Laureth and Sodium Lauryl Sulphates: Used as degreasers and strip the natural oils from your skin and scalp paving the way for dandruff and other scalp problems to arise.

·         Ethylene diamine (tetracetic acid): Used as a stabilizer

·         D&C Green 5: Coloring agent

·         Ketoconazole: A synthetic antifungal drug

·         Selenium sulfide: Active ingredient in anti-dandruff shampoos

 

Apart from these there are also other toxic substances like Alkyl-phenol ethioxlades, Propylene glycol, Voriconazole, Calcipotriol (INN), or calcipotriene (USAN) that are poison for our skin and body.

 

All these toxins are causing agents of various irritants like itching, fungal infection, lowering of sperm count, fertility problems in women, liver infection, cancer of skin... the list is endless.

 

Most of the anti-dandruff shampoos just act to temporarily address the problem that is in hand by masking the symptom. They do not act in replenishing the irritated itchy scalp with the lost nourishment it needs, and in fact man aggravate the problem further so after a certain dormant period the problem resurfaces.
