Say NO to Carbomers
Say YES to Natures Gel
Chiropractors, Physical Therapists and Massage Therapists are known across America as healthcare professionals who care about their patients and who care about natural health as well.
You may not be aware of this fact, but Carbomers are a synthetic acrylic polymer that is used in most all popular pain relieving formulas. A synthetic acrylic polymer is nothing more than PLASTIC. Research scientists and leading doctors are concerned about the over use of plastics in our society and the negative side effects to our heath, the environment and the ecology attributed to these plastics.
Nature's Gel does not add Carbomers to any of our products. Why do other companies use carbomers in their formulas? Because carbomers are a very cheap alternative that helps bind their ingredients together. Informed doctors know the skin is the largest organ of our body and any synthetic chemical you put on it will be absorbed directly into your system where your body will then have to deal with it. Plastics are widespread in our society from plastic bottles and plastic containers to plastic wrap, etc. All this plastic we use daily has been proven to cause a breakdown of our immune system and in general is another deadly toxin your body does not use, need or want.
Unfortunately for our health, Carbomer containing products are widely used in America. The Carbomer using list includes, but is not limited to sunscreens, creams, body lotions, cosmetics, toothpaste, hair products and pain gels.
Here are just a few of the other pain relieving products that routinely use Carbomers in their products. This is not a complete list, mind you. To determine if any or your lotions or gels have carbomers as an added ingredient just check the label.
