We all want to look after our health in terms of exercise, and what we eat, but how often do you consider that your cosmetics may be damaging your health?
Applying nail varnish is part of most women’s beauty regime, but recent research has shown that your nail polish could actually be harming your health.
WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR BODY 10 HOURS AFTER YOU APPLY NAIL POLISH

TOXIC NAIL POLISH

The study conducted was on 24 women to find out what chemical toxins were present in their bodies.  Evidence of toxins were found in every participant, the source of these chemicals? It was their nail polish. The participants were tested just 10 hours after applying nail varnish and triphenyl phosphate was found to be present in every single participant.

MOST POPULAR

The chemical toxin was absorbed into the body just from the application of varnish onto the nails.
The same researchers followed up this study by testing 10 different nail polishes for triphenyl phosphate, and the chemical was discovered in 8 out of the 10. Worse still, 2 out of the 8 that tested positive had not disclosed this particular ingredient on the bottle, meaning that up to 20% of nail polishes sold in our country may possibly contain dangerous chemicals that aren’t listed on the bottle as an ingredient.

WHAT EXACTLY IS TRIPHENYL PHOSPHATE?

Triphenyl phosphate (TPHP) is an undesirable ingredient in that it is known to disrupt humans’ endocrine system, the system that controls our hormones. Head researcher, Dr. Heather Stapleton stated “There is growing evidence suggesting that TPHP may affect hormone regulation, metabolism, reproduction and development”.
This is especially worrying considering the amount of young girl who are putting themselves at risk of absorbing this chemical, as healthy hormone development is essential to their growth.
However TPHP should be a worry for anyone at risk of being exposed to it. It has also shown to be:
– Neurotoxin (developmental effects)
– Endocrine Toxin
– Reproductive Toxin
– Skin irritant and allergies

OTHER DANGEROUS INGREDIENTS WE KNOW ARE FOUND WITHIN NAIL VARNISHES INCLUDE:

-Formaldehyde
Formaldehyde is a carcinogen that dissolves in water and in air meaning it is easily ingested. It gives nail varnish it’s pungent smell. It also produces symptoms such as a scratchy throat, asthma, and difficulty breathing. If you have a chronic illness you are more at risk from poisoning from formaldehyde.
– Toluene
Is known to impair development in children, some scientists even found traces of this in breast milk, and can also be a skin irritant.
– Dibutyl Phthalate
Often swaped  instead of TPHP, but it’s actually no better for your health. It holds similar health risks such as hormonal disruption and disruptions to the reproductive system.

Alternatives to Nail Polish
Thankfully there are alternatives to toxic nail varnishes, here are some other non-harmful options:
1. Honeybee Gardens produce a range of all natural nail varnishes which contain absolutely no traces of dangerous chemicals or carcinogens whatsoever.
2. Acquarella has a selection of over 50 nail polish colors, which are all water-based, and don’t contain any formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl phthalate, mercury, or wheat products.
3. SpaRitual is a toxin-free nail varnish brand, and is also vegan.
4. Peacekeeper Cause-Metics has a selection of nail polishes that are infused with argan oil, as well as being toxin-free.

We’ve all had those restless nights of tossing and turning, staring at the ceiling, unable to get more than a couple hours of shuteye. The more you worry about not sleeping, the more your mind races, and next thing you know, the sun is peeking through the window.I’ve spent one too many nights this way and needed to put an end to my poor sleeping patterns. I came across this delicious tea recipe and it improved my cycle completely.
BOIL BANANAS BEFORE BED, DRINK THE LIQUID AND YOU WATCH THE MIRACLE HAPPEN

I’ve spent one too many nights this way and needed to put an end to my poor sleeping patterns. I came across this delicious tea recipe and it improved my cycle completely.
Irregular sleeping patterns or even insomnia can stem from several different things like depression, stress, and anxiety. Almost every night, I would get into bed and my mind would be racing. Whether I was thinking about work, family, or simply the things I needed to get done the next day, I just couldn’t allow myself to relax. If your mind is active, chances are you won’t fall asleep.
Certain medications can also cause insomnia. Pain medications, antihistamines, and heart and blood pressure medicines are among the many that contribute to sleep loss.Yes, some meds might actually make you drowsy at first, but they can also trigger frequent bathroom trips or anxiety which can further disturb your rest.
Yes, some meds might actually make you drowsy at first, but they can also trigger frequent bathroom trips or anxiety which can further disturb your rest.
Whether it’s one of these issues or maybe it’s that you’re addicted to your phone when you should be sleeping, something needs to change.

BANANA TEA

Using only a couple items that are likely already in your kitchen, you can whip together a banana tea in no time! This organic, banana-infused sleep remedy works wonders and tastes so good.
How does it work?
Bananas, especially the peels, are loaded with potassium and magnesium.
While magnesium helps prevent sleep disturbances, both magnesium, and potassium work together to help relax muscles. In fact, magnesium is one of the best minerals for relaxation!
Keep in mind, this recipe calls for 100% organic bananas. Bananas that are not organic are loaded with harmful pesticides and since we encourage you to eat the boiled peel, it must be chemical-free.
This tea takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and can be enjoyed every night before bed.

INGREDIENTS:

1 organic banana
1 small pot of water
a dash of cinnamon (optional)
All you need to do is cut off both ends of the banana and place it, peel and all, into boiling water. Boil it for around 10 minutes. Using a colander, pour the water into a mug. If you’re feeling adventurous, sprinkle the cinnamon into the tea. Drink it one hour before bedtime.
If you’re worried about being wasteful, you’ve clearly never had a boiled banana before! After the banana has been boiled, sprinkle some cinnamon over it. Eating the warm, gooey fruit and its peel along with the tea will increase its soothing effects… Not to mention it makes a yummy dessert!
Why Sleeping Pills Are Bad
Out of despair, many of us have resorted to sleeping pills and with almost half of the American population suffering from insomnia or poor sleep, it’s no wonder. But here’s the thing: sleeping pills cannot help you long-term. They provide a short-term fix.
The majority of sleeping pills are a specific type of drug that induces and maintains sleep. They’re classified as something called sedative-hypnotics. Among other sedative hypnotic drugs are benzodiazepines and barbiturates. Benzodiazepines—like Xanax and Valium—can be addictive and are used to treat anxiety disorders by increasing drowsiness. Barbiturates depress the central nervous system are used as anesthetics and sedatives.
As with all drugs, there’s a list of side effects that accompany sleeping pills. Aside from the likeliness of them being habit-forming, they can cause the following:
Constipation
Dizziness
Difficulty focusing and remembering
Stomach pain
Weakness
Uncontrollable shaking
Parasomnias (Doing things without realizing it… Scary!)
Sleeping pills also cause your breathing rhythm to slow down and significantly lighten. This means that if you’re already suffering from lung diseases like COPD or even asthma, these meds can be dangerous and even fatal.
