Are your cosmetics harming you?

Did you know that many cosmetics contain chemical toxins and can contribute to fat storage?

 What??    Especially for Ladies in the butt and thigh area!  

It may be due to estrogen storage from the chemical toxins in the cosmetics you use.

Men - Don't think you are exempt from this....that hair gel or smelly Axe deoderant you are slathering on is known to lower your testosterone!

Anything in the below picture that says Hormonal Disruptions will contribute to a Hormone imbalance and contribute to body fat storage.

The chemicals are absorbed into the body via the skin, the bodies largest organ.

The chemicals that the body can't detox are stored in fat. 

The good news is just by being aware and avoiding the harmful chemicals you can reduce your exposure and potential for body fat storage dramatically.
