btw while I’m still being annoying, my favorite example to bring up in the “hygiene products that you can just pick up off the shelf at the store can have KNOWN carcinogens in them” conversation is coal tar. This one’s still crazy to me. It’s used in anti-dandruff products for its “anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties" but it’s also LIKE. a hazardous substance... but it can still go in your shampoo bc “aww but it’s only SOME poison, it’s not like, a LOT of poison, so we can still sell it and it’s ok”

#BUT IT'S STILL OKAY TO PUT IT IN PRODUCTS... WE'RE NOT PULLIN THIS ONE OFF SHELVES? #like there are OTHER. antidandruff products. GIRL. #also this same product also has a blue dye in it. that ALSO. HAS. A CANCER RISK ON IT #you don't even NEEEEEED THE DYE. shampoo doesn't NEED pigment in it AT all #at least with coal tar they go aww but what if your scalp is itchy! then maybe it's worth skin cancer #okay but is the goo being blue THAT important? crazy crazy #sergle.txt #like you can GO to walmart. pick up a product called Therapeutic Dandruff Shampoo #and use it bc your scalp is itchy and flaky #and you don't know that there's Multiple ingredients in it that are known cancer risks #and several other ingredients that are irritants #which. you're trying to NOT be itchy right? #why would you assume that something innocuous like that could be harmful? well you wouldn't! #bc you shouldn't have to. #but my point stands that you can't do any harm by Checking #There are absolutely NO warnings on the packaging that this has any health risk WHATSOEVER #it just says how therapeutic and soothing and helpful it'll be for you #and you're like that's great! time to buy #how is anyone supposed to know until someone tells you?
