One of many reasons we recommend avoiding parabens is that they are ‘estrogenic’, which means they mimic hormones.

Did you know that parabens occur naturally at low levels in certain foods? When you eat these naturally-occurring parabens, they’re metabolised (broken down and eliminated by the body) thus making them less strongly estrogenic.

Parabens used in cosmetics are synthetically prepared (derived from petrochemicals).

When you apply parabens to your skin via skincare, haircare, antiperpirant or deodorant, the parabens are absorbed into the body, bypassing the metabolic process. This means they enter the blood stream and body organs intact.

Reputable research from universities around the world, WHO papers and peer reviewed journals provide a little insight as to why this is better avoided. For example:

>>> 96% of urine samples taken from American adults contained methyl and n-propyl parabens. In the USA population, adolescent and adult women showed higher urinary parabens levels than males, indicating the use of cosmetics as major exposure pathway.

>>> Determination of parabens in urine, serum, and seminal plasma samples from 60 healthy Danish men showed ubiquitous presence of most of the parabens. After certain parabens were banned in Denmark, the studied Danish population had two and a half-fold *lower* urinary parabens levels than the USA population.

>>> Women are commonly exposed to 50 mg per day of parabens from cosmetics.

>>> Parabens (particularly methyl paraben) are commonly identified in breast cancer tumours.

>>> Parabens have been shown to spur the growth of breast cancer tumours.

All very good reasons to avoid applying synthetic parabens directly to your skin.

All Y natural products are paraben-free, of course!

PS If you’re in the area today, stop by Y natural for a strawberry smoothie. Strawberries are an example of a food that naturally contains very low levels of parabens, but as mentioned above, these are metabolised by the body and thus are harmless. Our gut is very clever and this is just one example of how it can protect us more effectively than our skin.

it is rather cold this morning!

😂😂
