A study carried out Environmental Working Group (EWG) on blood and urine samples in 20 young women aged 14-19 years showed that it contains dangerous materials. Most of them are the triggers of cancer, some can affect the hormonal balance.

The researchers identified no fewer than 16 kinds of dangerous compound that believed to come from either powder cosmetics, perfume and so on. 16 hazardous materials then classified into 4 groups.

Here is a fourth class of dangerous material meant.

1. Phthalate

These materials are also used in the manufacture of plastic to elastic properties. Impact on the health if inhaled or ingested in some measure are triggering the reproductive system disorders, asthma and allergies.

In cosmetics, phthalates used as an extra solvent in a variety of fragrance products.

2. Triclosan

Directly, triclosan used in some soaps and toothpaste products that can lead to health problems when it reacts with the aquatic or watery environment. One of them is a disruption in thyroid hormone balance.

Excessive use of triclosan also trigger indirect effects on health, ie, by triggering germ resistance or immunity to antibiotics. Effects are the emergence of super germs (superbug) that cause disease that not susceptible to eradicate with antibiotics.

3. Paraben

These compounds are used as a preservative in instant noodles. this compounds have side effects if used over the safety threshold. Because of its similar to the hormone estrogen. in the body this compound will lead to imbalances that could increase the risk of breast cancer.

In cosmetics, parabens are often used as a mixture of soap, shampoo, toothpaste and deodorant. direct contact with the skin can cause allergies in sensitive people.

4. Synthetic Fragrances

Some animal species naturally spend fragrance called pheromones, whose function was to attract mates in the breeding season. By humans, this fragrance was made ​​copied and used in perfumes, as well as some types of soap and hair care products.

Several types of synthetic fragrances are known to cause cancer in animals. Although not yet tested in humans, strongly suspected this compound also increases the risk of cancer in humans.

In fact, lack of sleep not only makes the flagging during the move, but also can result in dangerous illness, even death.

Here are five negative impact of sleep deprivation on health:

Breast cancer

Graduate School of Medicine researchers at Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan has been studied almost 24,000 women aged 40-79 years.

Researchers found that women who slept less than six hours a night have an increased risk of breast cancer 62 percent higher, while those who slept less than nine hours a night have a 28 percent lower risk.

Cardiovascular disease

A 2010 study published in the journal Sleep,

Researchers found participants who slept less than seven hours a night have an increased risk of heart attack. In fact, for women aged under 60 years old and slept five hours or less a night had twice the risk of heart attack.

Researchers from West Virginia University School of Medicine is reviewing data from 30 397 people who participated in the National Health Interview Study in 2005.

Diabetes

According to a study in the journal Diabetes in 2011, the University of Chicago and Northwestern University found that people with type 2 diabetes who sleep less at night have elevated levels of glucose nine percent higher. In fact, insulin levels rose to 30 percent higher, and insulin resistance rates 43 percent higher.

Diabetic patients with insomnia even worse condition, glucose levels can be 23 percent higher, rate 48 percent higher insulin and insulin resistance rates 82 percent higher than diabetics who do not have insomnia.

Colon cancer

A study published in 1240 people in 2011, researchers from Case Western University found people who sleep less than six hours a night have a 47 percent greater risk of colorectal polyps, which can become cancerous, than people who have at least seven hours of sleep.

Death

A study conducted for 10 years at around 16,000 people by researchers at the University of Copenhagen link between lack of sleep and the risk of death. Apparently the men who reported having poor sleep habits, especially those aged under 45 years old, has double the risk of death than men who sleep well.
