Doctors told about the dangers of women’s cosmetics.
Women who are actively using the bronzer and hairspray, were at risk of developing diabetes. To this conclusion came a group of Swiss scientists who work in the Geneva hospital Brigham.
After analyzing the data 2350 American women 20-80 years, scientists have identified a clear link to the availability of a product is phthalates and metabolic disorders. High levels of phthalates (in particular, mono-benzyl phthalate and mono-phthalate isobutyl) in the body increased the risk of diabetes twice. It was also noted insulin resistance. If the concentration was relatively moderate (we are talking about mono-n-butyl phthalate and the di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate a), the risk was increased by about 70%.
Phthalates can be found almost everywhere (in nail Polish, shampoo, soap, plastic containers). In properties they are similar to hormones produced in the human body. Most likely, compounds interfering with the metabolism of adipose tissue. By the way, during independent study, the staff of Children’s environmental health center at Medical center of mount Sinai has established that obesity in children can be triggered by the influence of phthalates. The experts called for the abandonment of these compounds.
