When you said “SLS is in just about every product known to man!” I assume you actually meant “SLS is in just about every product known to THE COMMON man!”

Luckily I am not a common man, I am a Jedi knight, and I now know this gunk for what it is. Gunk!

If you actually go out there and search, you will find whatever you want. If u want mercury free fillings, with a bit of hard work, u can find. Sample applies to fluoride. Same applies to SLS.

If u want SLS free shampoo, toothpaste, bubble bath, shaving foam, soap, aftershave, conditioner, cleansing lotions or whatever….. get off yo lazy arse and find some. Sitting around complaining that “my shops only sells products with SLS” in them is what lazy ignorant common people do.

I only use products without SLS in them. I also try really hard not to use companies that sell products with gunk in them, even if the specific product I want is gunk free. I am not an expert so I have no idea what else they might be slipping in. if these companies are willing to cause harm to half their customers, why should I trust them with my health?

I get most of my toiletries from “Miessence”. Its all organic ingredients, lots of aloe vera. The lemon toothpaste is very good too (although strange at first!). I order them on line, postage cost is peanuts.

Shaving stuff I use “Geo e Trumper” – “west Indian extract of limes skin food” – if u try this, you will never go back to regular aftershave

I research, figure out which company I trust, i.e. no gunk in any of their products, and stick with those companies.

All the products mentioned above cost the same as mid-range regular products for the common man. All of them do a better job. All of them feel nice, smell nicer and have better longer lasting effects. No chemical after taste nor extra effects.

I used this book too.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Chemical-Ma...ks&qid=1191526568&sr=8-4

I sat down, read all the ingredients on all my toiletries, compared them to what in the book, then chucked all the products away and started from scratch.

Why do I know about all this $hit? Because in my quest to regain my health I needed to reduce my toxic load and this was one of the things I did.

And don’t get me started on suntan lotions!

Apologies if this comes across a little aggressive but I’m feeling a tad rough tonight. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
