THORNE ORGANICS

Pure and clean skin-, hair- and body-care for adults and children

• made without the use of 27 commonly used harsh ingredients

• void of any ingredients containing derivatives of wheat or whey

• made from the fi nest certifi ed organic essential oils, resins and botanicals from renewable resources, selected for their matrix of complex antioxidants, nutrients and enzymes

Many people are becoming more aware of the presence of certain ingredients in their health and beauty aid products because of the possible effects on their health, especially with long-term exposure. We often see claims on beauty aid products such as “All Natural!”, “Organic Ingredients!”, “Paraben-free!”, “No Sulfates!”, “ No Lauryl sulfate!”, etc. Let’s take a quick look at a few of these controversial ingredients.

The term “parabens” (e.g., methyl paraben, eth-ylparaben) refers to a group of chemicals used as a stabilizer to help prolong the shelf-life of beauty prod-ucts. They are used in just about every type of beauty aid product, from eye shadow to foundation to lipstick and lip balm. These compounds are a concern because following absorption through the skin, they may inter-rupt the endocrine (hormone) system in the human body. There is some evidence that they may even have estrogenic effects. They are also commonly found to be the culprit behind allergic reactions.

Sodium benzoate is a commonly used food pre-servative and has also been used in cosmetic products. There have been concerns that a chemical reaction between sodium benzoate and vitamin C (ascorbic acid) can result in the formation of benzene, a known mutagen, carcinogen, teratogen, neurotoxin and al-lergen that has been banned from use in cosmetics in Canada. Most studies investigating the formation of benzene has been done on food products, i.e., ex-posure is through the oral route, but certain cosmetic companies highlight the fact that they do not use so-dium benzoate as they believe the risk of this reaction occurring may exist in cosmetic products as well.

EDTA (ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid) and its salts (e.g., calcium EDTA, diammonium EDTA, disodium EDTA, etc) are chelating agents used in cosmetics, foods, medicines and other household products to pre-vent rancidity, maintain clarity, and protect fragrance compounds. These compounds are harmful to the cell and its genes, but have not been found to be carcino-genic. Oral intake in quantities greater than those typi-cally found in foods has been shown to be teratogenic. Although EDTA salts are not well-absorbed through the skin and thus on its own poses little concern, there is potential for it to bind to and increase the penetration of other compounds into the skin.

DEA/MEA/TEA (di-/mono-/tri-ethanolamine) are compounds used to adjust the pH and as foaming agents in cosmetics & personal care products. They can cause allergic reactions, irritation, and dryness of the hair and skin. As they are absorbed through the skin, there is a hypothetical risk of health effects throughout the body.

PVC (polyvinylchloride) is a commonly used, natu-rally hard plastic often used to make children’s toys & other consumer products. Phthalates are added to PVC to make it soft and malleable, whereas heavy met-als (e.g., lead, cadmium) are added to make PVC more rigid. Exposure to the phthalates and heavy metals may cause liver, kidney and reproductive damage and learning and behavioral defects, respectively.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfates (SLS’s) are widely-used foaming agents found in shampoos, toothpastes, lotions, and cosmetics. SLS’s have been found to cause irritation to the eye and skin, and are common causes of allergic reaction to products that contain these chemicals.

Even the scent or parfum and coloring agents used to make health and beauty products more aesthetically pleasing can be a cause of allergy and irritation, especially with long-term use. In addition to watching what we eat to minimize our exposure to pesti-cides and other chemicals, it is increasingly important to be aware of what we put on our bodies. Seeking products that contain organic components would help minimize exposure to pesticides used in the cultivation of herbs or plants from which essential oils are derived. Keep in mind that just because something is touted to be “natu-ral”, does not mean it is void of pharmacological proper-ties and side effects. For example, the same white willow bark extract that claims to reduce redness in the skin could cause skin irritation in a sensitive person. Make a habit of reading the label including the fi ne prints. Seek out product lines that are manufactured by companies that are known to be reliable and have an established reputation in the naturopathic industry. One such company is Thorne Research. They produce a line of beauty aid products named Thorne Organics that is free of allergens, carcino-gens, and harmful substances. They are so careful that they even avoid the inclusion of even whey and gluten. They do not use synthetic scents, insisting on using natural essen-tial oils in all their scented products. If you’re curious how your health and beauty products compare, take a look at the Environmental Working Group’s “Skin Deep” Cosmetic Database, or consult a reliable health care professional.Christine Cheng is a registered pharmacist with training in natural products. Henry Cheng is a graduate of the University of Lon-don, England and is now Natural Products Consultant in the family owned Pharmasave in downtown Cloverdale.

President’s Message Representatives from the Cloverdale and District Chamber

of Commerce and the Cloverdale BIA met yesterday with Jim

Lightbody, Vice President Casino and Community Gaming and Greg

Walker, Manager Public Affairs @ BCLC. This meeting was called

to garner answers on the shocking announcement of the Proposed

South Surrey Casino by Jim Lightbody @ the Surrey Board of Trade

AGM. The board of directors of the Cloverdale and District Chamber

voted unanimously at our last board meeting to support Fraser

Downs as the primary gaming facility in Surrey.

The BCLC has confi rmed that any new facility in Surrey will be the same size as Fraser

Downs and that the revenues at Fraser Downs will not be negatively affected. The benefi ts

to the City of Surrey will be substantial as the total revenue from gaming will more than

double, as Fraser Downs grows and the new facility opens. We do not understand why the

location of the new facility was chosen, as it appears to not meet any of the criteria and is

located very close to existing gaming facilities (within 15 minutes of 3 other facilities).

The BCLC has assured us that Fraser Downs will be both fully supported by them, and

that the new facility will be primarily drawing from non Fraser Downs customers. We

strongly support Fraser Downs both as they currently operate and look to work with them

to expand their operations to maintain their position as Surrey’s primary gaming facility.

President’s Message Representatives from the Cloverdale and District Chamber

of Commerce and the Cloverdale BIA met yesterday with Jim

Lightbody, Vice President Casino and Community Gaming and Greg

Walker, Manager Public Affairs @ BCLC. This meeting was called

to garner answers on the shocking announcement of the Proposed

South Surrey Casino by Jim Lightbody @ the Surrey Board of Trade

AGM. The board of directors of the Cloverdale and District Chamber

voted unanimously at our last board meeting to support Fraser

Downs as the primary gaming facility in Surrey.

The BCLC has confi rmed that any new facility in Surrey will be the same size as Fraser

Downs and that the revenues at Fraser Downs will not be negatively affected. The benefi ts

to the City of Surrey will be substantial as the total revenue from gaming will more than

double, as Fraser Downs grows and the new facility opens. We do not understand why the

location of the new facility was chosen, as it appears to not meet any of the criteria and is

located very close to existing gaming facilities (within 15 minutes of 3 other facilities).

The BCLC has assured us that Fraser Downs will be both fully supported by them, and

that the new facility will be primarily drawing from non Fraser Downs customers. We

strongly support Fraser Downs both as they currently operate and look to work with them

to expand their operations to maintain their position as Surrey’s primary gaming facility.
