Girl EVERYTHING causes cancer! lol
Last year on the news I SWEAR they had a special report that said orange juice (which was proven to help PREVENT cancer) may actually contribute to you getting cancer. lol ??????
I was like Huhhh? When did that happen!

MsBoinglicious you are correct! Everything is carcinogenic these days.
Here's a tidbit: Peanuts, not only prevent cancer, but cause it as well! Talk about paradox!
Peanuts and cancer risk
Go figure...

Embrya--You're wrong! That's OLD news! Apparently, due to the insane amount of pollutants in the air, you can now catch lung cancer without ever having smoked cigarettes. All you gotta do is breathe, didntcha know?!I heard breathing causes cancer as wellok not really but its coming next in the news!
This USA Today article is from 2002 !

I wonder if this is the reason cancer was once known as the white man/woman disease? They were the only one's that could afford to buy these things.
Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). SLS is an ingredient used in commercial shampoos, but it's also used in engine degreasers. It can be stored throughout the body including in the eyes, brain, heart, and liver, and can even change genetic information in cells. It can react with other ingredients in shampoos and body cleansers to form carcinogenic nitrates and dioxins. With just one shampooing, large numbers of nitrates can be absorbed by the skin and enter the blood supply.
Propylene glycol. Propylene is a major ingredient in industrial antifreeze as well as brake and hydraulic fluid. In personal care products, it helps retain moisture. It’s used in toothpastes, deodorants, lotions and shampoos, and it can cause kidney and liver damage.
Para-dioxane. Para-dioxane, also known as 1,4-dioxane, is a probable carcinogen that is found in some children’s shampoos at levels above those deemed safe by the FDA. In 2007, the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics commissioned a study of baby-care products that found 1,4-dioxane in 67 percent of products tested. The Environmental Working Group estimates that more than 25 percent of all personal-care products contain the chemical. Personal care products containing para-dioxane have been banned in Europe.
Diethanolamine (DEA). DEA is found in hundreds of personal care products and is probably in your soap and shampoo. It causes cancer in rats when applied to the skin as well as damage to the liver, kidneys, and other organs.
Rules of thumb for avoiding harmful products:
• Don’t buy products that contain ingredients with long names. They are usually synthetic and haven’t been tested for safety.
• Don’t buy highly scented products. They contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which easily enter the bloodstream, killing brain cells and causing cancer. Avoid products listing “perfume,” “fragrance,” or “scent,” as ingredients.
Instead, choose products labeled “organic” or “all-natural” and products made with plant-based oils such as almond or jojoba.
