What is Triclosan? Why Triclosan is dangerous to you?

Earlier I have shared with you on why Triclosan shouldn't appear in your toiletries like toothpaste, shampoo and etc when US FDA officially banned it in 2016.

Click here: Say NO to Triclosan

However when I last visited the local stores, I can actually still find toothpaste that contain Triclosan :(.

So please do yourself a favour to check that if you still have this in your toilet.

I am blessed that we have learnt this 10 years ago on the harmful effects of triclosan in our Nutritional Immunology health seminars from Dr.Chen.

Read below for the final rules from the FDA to ban on triclosan in the USA.

According to a study published by Osteoporosis International, for seniors with osteoporosis, a dietary protein intake higher than the currently recommended levels can help reduce bone loss and fracture risk, if they are not lacking other nutrients for bone health. Researchers found that a higher dietary protein intake is associated with increased bone mineral density or bone strength.

38 out of 60 shampoos found to contain harmful manufacturing solvent

source: http://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/health-environment/article/2106847/38-out-60-shampoos-found-contain-harmful

# Hong Kong’s consumer watchdog has found 38 out of 60 shampoo samples it tested contained a harmful solvent used in manufacturing, with seven exceeding the limit recommended by the European Union.#

It seems getting common nowadays to see the news like above. Day in day out, we are using cosmetics and toiletries after wake up till before sleep eg. toothpaste, facial wash, body shampoo, shampoo, conditioner, facial cream and etc...

Hence it is important to be a wise consumer in choosing our toiletries.

How can we be a wise consumer in choosing our toiletries ?

We may find ingredients like Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES , it's different from Sodium Lauryl Sulfate , SLS).

The concern is not on the use of SLES , but how it is being processed , such that the harmful byproduct can be removed.

Same for Talc. It's used widely in baby powder , cosmetics etc.
Talc by itself is perfectly safe to be used .
The danger arise when talc is contaminated by asbestos ( which the 2 quarry , often exist near to each other)

When such contamination , harmful byproducts exist in our toiletries , our health may be harmed in the long run.

For me, I started using Elemente toiletries and skincare about 10 years ago , and same for my family.

Be a wise consumer not only in choosing food, but on our personal care toiletries too.

Because toxic cancer causing (carcinogenic) chemicals is everywhere - from the air we breathe, the food we eat and the personal care toiletries we use on our hair, skin, and in our mouth. They may be contributing to the spiralling rate of cancer and metabolic disease whilst speeding up aging process too.

Feel free to contact me to find out more on how to be wise in choosing both health food & personal care products.

Losing weight healthily is not hard after all!

As what people always said, fairness can cover ugliness, while fat can destroy everything.

Nowadays, modern city dwellers do not have a balanced diet on every meal, this is why obesity problem is getting serious. Although obesity is not a serious disease, it can lead to a variety of diseases and some negative impacts on our body. On top of that, obesity will combat self-confidence that causes people lack of the thoughts of pursuing new things.

 Some of you maybe wondering why I put on weight so easily as compared to others?

 

We know that every obesity individual is trying to lose weight, but without perseverance, only a few people can lose their weight. In addition, you might have heard of a lot of people using extreme diet control to lose weight. However, extreme diet control may lead to the weaker body as the nutrients in the body is lesser.

 On top of exercise regularly, healthy eating habits are the most important key to losing weight. When you have a healthy diet, you can lose weight in the most effective and healthiest way.

Generally, people who are planning to lose weight should take low calories, low fat, and low cholesterol foods. This is to help our body reduce fats and avoiding the body from storing excessive fats. We need to consume more fruits and vegetables to have enough of nutrients. And, through the consumption of high fibre foods to help on the excretion of waste products.

Apart from that, soybean and psyllium husk are also recognised as the best ingredients for weight loss. Soybean is low-calorie and rich in protein. Psyllium husk contains water soluble fibre, it can help to increase food satiety and let our excretion system smoother.

Soybean is free of cholesterol and contains a lot of protein. Soy isoflavones can reduce the cholesterol index, and can prevent coronary heart disease. On top of that, it contains plant nutrients that can effectively prevent cancer cells. Soy isoflavones have been proven to prevent osteoporosis. Soybean contains tetraphine, which can accelerate the decomposition of fat and help in weight control. In addition, soybean can help to reduce the symptoms of menopause.

On the other hand, experts from National University if Singapore, the British Cancer Research Center and the National Cancer Society (NCI) have conducted a study of soybeans and breast cancer. They concluded that women who consume a large amount of soybean had lower mammograms density on breasts. In which it means they have a lower risk of breast cancer compared to women who do not consume large amounts of soybeans.

Weight lose is through a lifestyle and correct knowledge.

Take care of your body and it will take care of you!

Medical errors is the 3rd leading cause of death!

The recent news on 11month old baby girl died due to carelessness of hospital and mistreated by doctor remind me of an article by Dr.EE on Medical Errors.


A recent study done by Johns Hopkins Medicine, says that Medical error is the third leading cause of death in the United States, after heart disease and cancer.

The analysis done on the rate of death due to medical error, taken from U.S. CDC, estimated that at least 250,000 people in the United States died not from the orignal illness or injury that brought them to hospital, but from preventable mistakes.

Source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2016/05/03/researchers-medical-errors-now-third-leading-cause-of-death-in-united-states/?utm_term=.6a59d3ae299c

Why does medical errors happens?

In a study by the FDA that evaluated reports of fatal medication errors from 1993 to 1998, the most common error involving medications was related to administration of an improper dose of medicine, accounting for 41% of fatal medication errors.

Other than that, when people are admitted to hospital, they are at risk of more than just their illness. There are:

 Miscommunication

Misdiagnosis

 Poor Coordination

Missing or incomplete patient information 

Wrong blood group transfusions

Infections due to poor hygiene 

Why does medical errors happens?

Because doctor and nurses are human too!

As patients, we like to think that our doctors know it all, that they know what they are doing, and that they will do it right. But like patients, doctors are only human too.

So what we can do to help ourselves?

Prevention is the best course of action!!!

When ill or injured, it is always a good idea to seek medical help. However, the best course of action would be try to avoid illness and injury to begin with. This, of course, starts with taking good care of our health!

As advanced as medical care is, we cannot cure an illness.

A good diet and exercise on daily basis are key to keeping good health.

Other than that, knowledge is our strongest defense!

Article about Ensure nutrition drink

Saw this article few days ago:

Do you know, in fact many of these harmful ingredients and synthetic vitamins can be found in our baby formula milk - in any brands.

Also juices where we buy from the supermarkets.

What we can do for a healthier family is when we start to get curious to read the ingredients on our food label, and understanding wht is healthy vs luxury food.

What is healthy food? Healthy food is what we can eat daily in abundance as it's nourishing our immune system.

What is luxury food? They are comfort food where we indulge occasionally.

Again my message to you is simple and clear - be a wise consumer as we are what we eat :).

We are having regular NI workshop to educate public on how to be a wise consumer, do pm me for details ya :)

Have you heard of Triclosan before?

TRICLOSAN - Have you heard of Triclosan before?

Triclosan is one of the very common anti-bacterial agent used in toiletries like toothpaste, handwash and etc.

It can damage our liver and causing depression worst cancer after it reacting with chlorine in our tap water. Latest research has shown it can cause destroy thyroid function too.

We actually learnt about this harmful ingredients from Dr.Chen many years ago through Live With Dr.Chen. (https://nutritionalimmunologylifestyle.blogspot.sg/2016/10/opportunity-to-learn-from-drchen-before.html)

Yet, now US FDA only officially banned it.

Indeed, it's our blessing to get to know the science of Nutritional Immunology & learn the updated knowledge from Dr.Chen 7 years ago. I cant imagine the damage in my body by Triclosan if I didn't know about this and been using for 7 years.

Other than Triclosan, do you know Flouride is actually another neurotoxin.

We are not surprise to see arsenic as neurotoxins, but Fluoride?!

It's something that we need to be concern about. So please check the ingredients label of your toothpaste.

Actually we can choose a safer source instead of using these harmful chemicals.

For healthier option, you can choose a toothpaste with safer ingredients.

I am letting my both gals and of course adults too using Elemente fluoride free toothpaste :)

It's refreshing and safe as does not contain cancer causing agents like SLS and fluoride.

Feel free to contact me if you want to get one for your LO.

What about the product safety? Read here:
