Many toxic substances are nowadays being sold without any type of control: impoverished uranium (since 1999), sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), propilenic glycol, diethanolamine (DEA), cocamide DEA, luramide DEA, Fluorides (sodium fluoride and hexafluorosilicic acid), Dioxin, Alum,

Fluorocarbons, Formaldehyde, mineral oil and/or petroleum jelly, etc…

Below you will find some information about these toxic substances (taken from Phillip Day’s book: “Cancer: if you want life, prepare the truth”, Credence Publications)

Dioxin: it is a cancerogenous byproduct of the procedure used to make foam in soaps like shampoo, toothpaste, and to bleach paper in paper factories. Plastic bottles treated with dioxin can transfer it to the food they contain. It is demonstrated that dioxin can cause cancer 500,000 times more than DDT. (1207).

Alum : Medicines containing alum must not be taken; when eating, cutlery containing aluminum should not be used, because this substance de-activates various phyto-complexes, including vitamin E.

NB: the danger of aluminum can be easily demonstrated by taking an aluminum bowl (or covered with tin foil inside), filling it with water and melting some sodium bicarbonate inside: when the aluminum comes into contact with an alkaline substance such as the bicarbonate, it melts and forms a gas: it can therefore be presumed that aluminum causes some kind of poisoning, characterized by a gastro-intestinal inflammation because of the hydroxide in the aluminum, and possibly by a hepatic and renal degeneration.

Fluorocarbons: they are gases or liquids that have no colour, they are not flammable, they can cause irritations in the upper and middle respiratory organs. They are usually contained in hair spray.

Formaldehyde: it is a toxic gas, with no color, irritating and cancerogenous. It is used with water as a disinfectant or a preservative. It is found in many cosmetic products and common nail products.

Mineral oil and/or petroleum jelly: they are used in baby oils. They derive from petroleum, that is notoriously cancerogenous.

Diethanolamine (DEA), Cocamide DEA, Luramide DEA : they are liquids without colour, or crystalline alcohol, used as a solvent, emulsionant and cleanser (inhibiting agent). DEA works as an emollient in emollient lotions or as wettener in other personal care products. If it is present in products containing nitrates, a chemical reaction takes place and nitrosamines are produced, which are potentially cancerogenous. Even though some previous studies seemed to show that DEA was not cancerogenous, more recent studies show that DEA does have the capability of provoking cancer, even in nitrate-free formulations (1208). DEA can also irritate the skin and mucous

membranes. Other types of ethanolamines that must be avoided are Triethanolamines (TEA) and

Monoethanolamines (MEA).

Fluorides (sodium fluoride and hexafluorosilicic acid): fluorides used in drinking water are noxious, they are not biodegradable and they pollute the environment. They are officially classified as “contaminating” by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Such substances are industrial waste, residuals of phosphate-based fertilizer production (Note by Dr. G. Nacci: the latter are suspected to be responsible for the seaweed overproduction in the Adriatic sea during the summer)

that are taken in by industrial pollution depurators and then sent to water pipes. Hexafluorosilicic acid, that is, the mostly used additive for fluorization, contains other noxious substances, including lead, beryllium, mercury, cadmium, arsenic and radionuclides (1209). The noxious action of fluorides is summed up in a clear statement by Dr. Dean Burk of the National Cancer Institute: “Fluoride

causes more deaths due to cancer and causes cancer quicker than any other chemical substance”. Fluoride is an electronegative element, it is extremely volatile, and it is never found isolated in nature, and so it quickly combines itself to other elements. Fluorides were used as toxic gases during the First World War, and at the moment sodium fluoride is used as poison against mice. However it is also used in toothpaste for its alleged action against cavities. In October 1994, the medical journal “Journal of the American Medical Association” published an editorial saying: “…the use of drinking water containing a minimum quantity of fluoride (1.2 to 3

parts per million) could cause dysfunctions to bone development just like osteosclerosis, spondilosis and osteoporosis, and also goiter” (1210). In May 1992, Dr. William Marcus, the scientific consultant in charge and toxicologic head of the US Environmental Protection Agency, was fired after publishing his explicit statements about the scary risks linked to fluorides. Finally, in 1990-1991 fluoride was officially declared as a cause for cancer in animals and humans (1211). Dr. Burk of N.C.I. said indeed: “We conclude that artificial fluorization seems to cause or

induce at least 20-30 more deaths for 100,000 people that were exposed to it for at least 15-20 years…” (www.thewinds.org/archive/medical/fluoride01-98.htm ).

However, it is incredible to think that today fluorization of water pipes and toothpaste is allowed, and furthermore the aim of the US government is to make it mandatory for water pipes in 75% of American cities in the next few years (1209).

This is what medical scientific literature says (1212):

1)Fluoride accumulates in the body just like lead, causing long-term damage

2)Fluoride is more noxious than lead, and slightly less noxious than arsenic (Clinical Toxicology, 1984)

3)Medical research shows that hip breaking occurs 20-40% more often in communities where fluorization is applied (1212).

On 8 December 1993 the American Medical Association (AMA) published an article called “Study

links fluoride to rare bone cancer”. This study also showed that hip breaking occurred more often (27% more) in women and 41% more in men, in American cities with fluorization (1213-1219).
