A recent lawsuit was filed in California over a known Carcinogenic substance found to be used by many leading manufacturer’s of hair shampoo and conditioner.
When the Center for Environmental Health based in Oakland, California performed an analysis on shampoos and soaps, they found that at least 98 included a carcinogen known as cocamide diethanolamine (cocamide DEA).
This coamide diethanolamine is a chemically-modified form of coconut oil used as a thickener or foaming agent in many products, and is a known carcinogen.
Listed below are the 98 products that have, to some degree, lied to the consumer by violating a law that prohibits the use of this known carcinogenic.
The sad truth about this: The FDA allows manufacturers to put any toxic chemical they desire to into shampoos because it may be deemed necessary. For this reason alone – it is YOUR JOB as a consumer to be aware of what you are putting in your mouth and/or on your body.
If I were you, I would immediately stop using the brand of shampoo below. I would also write the company a personal letter that you are also informing everyone in your circles of this violation. Soon a total boycott of this product will follow.
If you are uncertain about what kind of damage you may be doing to your body, watch this video about what Dr. Darrell Wolfe says about toxins. It is an informative video. Please Watch!

WOW! And I use some of these products! I would get rid of the ones that I use and tell my family about this. Thanks Kenneth!
I was just as surprised as you were Von about some of the products on this list. I was even more shocked to learn that it is up to US and not the government to decide if a product is safe to use. I thought it was illegal to knowingly include known toxins in a product. But according to the FDA, manufacturers can add any toxin they deem necessary and that is okay and not against the law… Only a very few toxins are against the law to use. The FDA, EPA and the USDA are corrupted by big money to look the other way. It seems they pass laws to protect manufacturers but not consumers. I ask, “when did that change?”
That’s quite a list Ken.
Now team that up with the toxic soup that could be in the water like; Fluoride, Chlorine, Arsenic and other heavy metals and you’ve taken all the clean out of your next shower.
The public has to know.
Thanks,
Phil
You are so right Phil. I can’t believe the greatest nation on earth still allows certain companies knowingly deceive people by putting toxins into their products and telling the American people that it is “all natural.” It is up to the consumer to read the ingredient label to insure it is safe for their own use. That is another reason why an ingredient label is so vital. New legislation to disuse an ingredient label would allow manufacturers to put “anything” they want into the product without your knowledge.
