Glycol: It is the most common
moisture-carrying vehicle other than water that
is used. Found in most shampoo and conditioners,
even foodstuffs such as cakes & muffins. Derived
from petroleum products. Also used in anti-freeze,
de-icer, latex, paint, and laundry detergent. It
can cause irritation of nasal and respiratory passages
and if ingested, can cause nausea, vomiting, and
diarrhea. It is documented to cause liver abnormalities
and kidney damage. Research also shows it is mutagenic,
and a contributor to cardiac arrest. Japanese studies
show it damages cell DNA (genetic code). Strongly
degreases and dries the skin.
