What is it? BHA and BHT.

So where can you find BHA & BHT? These chemicals are used to preserve and remove rancidity in foods and products.
They are in baby shampoos, baby lotions, baby moisturizers, and even baby foods.
What does it do to your baby?
BHA and BHT are considered carcinogens by the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Yet the FDA allows them to be used in foods and baby products?! What’s wrong with this picture?
In the last 40 years or so, the rate of children with cancer has increased by 50%. This is not a coincidence.
You can protect your child!
BHA and BHT are very bad and they’re often used together. Now it is up to you to decide if you’re unwilling to compromise your child’s health.
Switch from processed foods to whole organic foods. Read the labels of everything you buy. If it says it contains BHA & BHT, put it back and choose baby-safe, 100% all natural, water-free products instead. They don’t contain this stuff.
