"Our Vision for Every Child, Life in all its Fullness; Our Prayer for Every Heart, the Will to Make it So." ----- Forwarded by Erelyne Bautista/PHLO/WorldVision on 05/23/2007 01:32 PM ----- Doche Olayvar/PHLO/WorldVision 25 Apr 2007 08:21 PM To cc Subject Fw: Formalin in Sunsilk Shampoo am sharing this article from an undisclosed sender about sunsilk shampoo. thank god am using pantene and cream silk only so at least these products don't have formalin ingredient. Subject: formalin on shampoo Please read below.......... Sa mga gumagamit ng Sunsilk shampoo basahin nyo ito... ei guys... alam nyo ba yung shampoo and conditioner na SUNSILK SUMMER FRESH?.. One of the ingredients of it is the "Formaldehyde" which is commonly called "Formalin" - Yes, yung ginagamit pang embalsamo ng dead people.. scary noh? (See for your self if you doubt about it).. everytime na nag shampoo tayo ng may Formaldehyde ingredients, parang enembalsamo na rin natin ang ating mga sarili. Actually, I already called the Unilever Customer Care and confirm to them that "Formaldehyde is actually the Formalin, and they said, "Yes, its Formalin, but they just put to the shampoo, a little amount so that it is still safe to the people...".. Pero diba, kahit little amount lang yung nilalagay nila sa shampoo but if everyday tayo gumagamit, everyday din nadadagdagan ang amount na nilalagay natin sa ating ulo na Formalin. I also searched to the internet "What is Formaldehyde?" and here are some definitions of it: A chemical used in manufacturing and chemical industries, and as a preservative by anatomists, embalmers, and pathologists. Being exposed to formaldehyde may increase the risk of developing leukemia and brain cancer. www.stjude.org/glossary is a colorless, strong-smelling gas. It is widely used in household products, such as glue, wood products, permanent press fabrics, flooring, cabinets, and furniture. enviromysteries.thinkport.org/breakingthemold/resources/glossary.shtml Although not common as a primary ingredient, formaldehyde is present as a contaminant in many consumer household products. It is an extremely potent carcinogen and respiratory irritant and may appear as a preservative. Products containing this chemical should be considered unacceptable. www.seventhgeneration.com/site/pp.asp and a lot more... mag search na lang kayo if you need more information about Formaldehyde. :-) Hindi lang naman SUMMER FRESH ng SUNSILK ang may ingredients na Formaldehyde, yung SUNSILK Repair din nila na shampoo meron din. Personally, alarming sya dahil Formalin is not really good for our health. Though maganda nga hair natin, but still.. in long run.. if we keep using shampoo / conditioner na may content na Formaldehyde, bka preserve na ang body natin even if we are still alive. What's the use of the good looking hair, if our health is in at risk.. This e-mail is not for making bad impression to Sunsilk shampoo/conditioner. I just want to share my opinion regarding this alarming discovery. It's up to you if you would care to think / reflect about it or not. Disclaimer: I have nothing against the SUNSILK SHAMPOO, its just that.. so far, sa Sunsilk ko lang kasi nakita ang Formaldehyde na content. For Your Information. Have a Nice Day!!
