As part of this new journey in my life I have chosen to try and improve my health to the best of my ability. I look forward to life after treatment and medication and therefore need to get my house in order. The first part of this is obviously diet but what else is going into my body? Having looked at my bathroom products 2 weeks ago I was dismayed and alarmed to discover how many potentially harmful ingredients are contained in my favourite shower gels, shampoos, moisturisers and beauty products. These include sodium lauryl sulphate, parabens, dyoxins and many,many more. So I filled a large carrier bag with what was already in use and put unopened products in a cupboard to deal with at a later date. So what to use now? Of course I turned to the Internet. Good information found in Best Chemical free shower gel in UK (2018). And there are various alternative products I wish to find out about.
My aim is to inform myself, my family, friends and anyone else close to me. As men and women on this cancer journey I feel that this information should be freely available.
