In this natural health book, Dr. Farlow gives well-informed advice to people who want to achieve excellent health by selecting the right products that are truly natural and non carcinogenic. Dr. Christine Farlow has been counseling patients and teaching classes in health and nutrition since 1984. She has helped thousands achieve higher levels of health and well being.

She reveals the disturbing truth about what’s really in your cosmetics, toiletries and personal care products. Your health is affected not only by what you put into your body in terms of food, drink, drugs and nutritional supplements, but also by what you put on your body. Many of the chemicals that can be absorbed through the skin have been detected in the blood stream.

In 2004, the Environmental Working Group evaluated the ingredients in 7,500 personal care products for safety. They found that “1 of every 120 products on the market contains ingredients certified by the government authorities as known probable human carcinogens, including shampoos, lotions, make-up foundations, and lip balms.”

This health book provides 216 pages and a comprehensive resource section that contains contact information for every product and every company listed in the book, so you can easily find the products you want to buy. In addition, this book offers 10 pages of references so that you can confirm the facts given by doing your own research. Also contains new information on topics of special importance, like acrylic nails, antibacterial soaps, hair dyes, permanent make-up, sunscreens and more.

Finally a book one can bring to the local supermarket and or health food store that helps translate the unpronounceable ingredient names in nutritional labels. Furthermore she offers a website along with a login and password to see the latest information on newly found harmful ingredients in the marketplace.

Dr. Ferlow mentions Herbal Choice in her list of pure natural products. See Herbal Choice under Brands.
