Research is important. And true said that “natural” does not mean Better anymore. As moms, we want the best for our children and we have to use sensible treatments. I oppose to antibiotic in general, but when you have to – you give it, because you use your sense.
I looked hard for safe products for me and my family and found an American manufacturer – Neways International with SAFE products:

I’ve been using them for 8 years now, and I was never disappointed. Those are natural products made safe.

I love the above comment from Tailfeather. As an ingredient supplier to the cosmetic industry, I can assure you – none of our ingredients are “supernatural!”

Beyond that our products are “processed” to assure functionality, effectiveness and safety. Mother Nature is very good at making trees – not so good at making shampoos.

((((BeautyBrains)))) I just had to give you a quick hug. Remember back when some sham artist said that women who wore cosmetics on average absorbs about 5 lbs. of chemicals per year? I panicked. I gathered every Dove Pro-Age product I had (and it was a lot!) and threw them in an empty dresser drawer. I wasn’t sure if I was going to throw them away or give them away but I went to the natural foods/products store and racked up on natural soaps, shower gels. etc. I felt so stupid when Beauty Brains exposed this guy. But hey, at least I was able to use my Dove Pro-Age again! So now that I’ve embarrassed my self to the utmost…..

I agree with the above comment. People will argue about whether a product is natural or not based on their feelings regarding it’s alternatives. There are those who feel dimethicone is a natural product compared with mineral oil-based or petroleum jelly-based diaper ointments. While I do agree with some herbal supplements — don’t knock ginger for nausea, it really works; unless prescribed, giving anything beyond breast milk/formula to a 6 week old infant is deplorable.

I am always amazed at the Whole Foods Crowd, following a line without doing their own research.

I’ve always found the categories of “natural” and “unnatural” to be mutually exclusive. They’re jusy buzzwords to keep people from buying or to get them to buy.

To me, for an ingredient to be unnatural it would have to be harvested off-world. You know, like Mars or some passing asteroid.:p Because every ingredient anywhere, in anything is somehow derived from this Earth.

Certain ingredients may not be so good for a person, but still I feel they are naturally derived(and processed). And not wanting to use preservatives is crazy. Our ancestors cured everything with salt. They did that so they didn’t get sick, and parasites.
