Early Menopause Caused by Makeup & Hairspray
 

Chemicals found in make-up, hairspray and food packaging are causing women to hit the menopause early, researchers warn.

Those exposed to high doses have been found to go through the change almost two and a half years before other women.

And in some cases, these chemicals may be causing women to stop having periods 15 years too soon, say scientists.

So, this will give holiness preachers something to preach about, like don't use hairspray or don't use makeup or don't eat food.

Well, where does the list stop? Phthalates are also found in bottled water, or anything packaged in plastic, and packaged foods! They are found in shampoo, deodorant, hand lotion... take your pick, anything you put on yourself coming from plastic packaging has phthalates in it... unless otherwise stated.

So... if we go back to living like caveman, then maybe we won't have to worry about it.... sigh...

But, I wonder.... how many preachers will take the "makeup" part out of this study, and use it to say... "see I told you so"...

Hmm; I thought the point might be
parts per thousand, instead of
parts per million?

Yes, the question is how do we know how much we are consuming that is dangerous? They still have not reached that conclusion yet... Do we stop using plastics all together?
