Why don't we just all live in huts and eat dirt like they do in Africa?

this is the MOST ignorant comment i have read..its people like you that go around spread false rumours about Africa without taking out some time to educate yourself on different parts of the world. Granted, Africa might be 3rd world but there is progress, there are buildings and they do not eat dirt. Please grow up and think before you make comments like this...even if you are too lazy to do proper research on Africa..go to wikipedia

Eat the dirt all you want. The website it's just telling you of what to avoid. Wait until you have cancer, you'll know why.

Perfume

Synthetic fragrances, whether in your perfume bottle or added to personal care products, contain a host of hidden hazards: Neurotoxins, phthalates (which are banned in Europe) and synthetic musks, which are toxic to marine life and are possible hormone disrupters. Plus, fragrances are one of the top five allergens. Opt for essential oil-based scents instead.
