"DEA and its variants are suspected of increasing the risk of cancer. dea and TEA can combine with amines present in cosmetic;formulations to form nitrosamines (N-nitrosodiethanolamine), which are known to be highly carcinogenic.9 dea can also show up as a contaminant in products containing related chemicals, such as cocamide dea. section include of the ingredients in cosmetics listed in the "Not to Buy' lead, mercury, petroleum by-products, fragrance, nanop^rticles, extracts from human and cow placenta, and phthalates." - Frank Lipman, Mollie Doyle, Spent: Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Feel Great Again (Get the book.)

"Avoid cosmetics that include parabens (methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, and butylparabens); phthalates; sodium laureth/sodium laurel sulfate; butyl/ethyl acetate; petrolatum; cocamide DEA/lauramide DEA; diazolidinyl urea; propylene glycol; toluene; synthetic colors and fragrances; and triethanolamine. Likewise, avoid using synthetic perfumes and cologne. Studies show that many perfumes and colognes often contain phthalates and parabens (both of which are known endocrine disruptors)." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.)

"Although dea itself may be used in few products, DEA-related ingredients such as oleamide dea, lauramide dea, cocamide dea, are widely used as emulsifiers or foaming agents, generally at levels of 1 to 5 percent. The FDA is studying the problem and is going to consider legal options at this writing. See Ethanolamines. DIETHYL ACETALDEHYDE • Ethyl Butyraldehyde. A flavoring agent used in many foods. Moderately toxic by ingestion. A skin irritant. DIETHYL ACETIC ACID • Colorless, volatile liquid with a rancid odor used as a flavoring in a variety of foods." - Ruth Winter, Consumer's Dictionary of Food Additives: A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients Vitamin E (Get the book.)

"For example, when used in combination with dea and TEA, they can form nitro-samines, which, as I said above, are a deadly carcinogen. SLS and SLES are some of the most popular ingredients in makeup, shampoo, conditioner, and toothpaste. And because they readily dissolve grease, they are also used to clean engines and garage floors and at car washes. SLS and SLES have been found to contain 1,4-dioxane, a known carcinogen.1011 Though the U.S. Food and Drug Administration encourages manufacturers not to use this contaminant, it is not banned by federal law." - Frank Lipman, Mollie Doyle, Spent: Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Feel Great Again (Get the book.) "DEA can also show up as a contaminant in products containing related chemicals, such as cocamide dea. section include of the ingredients in cosmetics listed in the "Not to Buy' lead, mercury, petroleum by-products, fragrance, nanop^rticles, extracts from human and cow placenta, and phthalates.

Most otherwise toxic." - Frank Lipman, Mollie Doyle, Spent: Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Feel Great Again (Get the book.)

"As I mentioned, cocamide dea, lauramide dea and cocamide MEA could be cancer causing, based on results of experimental studies. In addition, I reported in The Safe Shoppers Bible that TEA and dea can cause the formation of cancer-causing nitrosamines in cosmetic products. Urge companies to pledge to make safer products. Cosmetic companies should not use chemicals linked to cancer, birth defects, and other health harms in their products." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"According to a 1998 report from the federal National Toxicology Program, two DEA-based compounds—cocamide dea and lauramide DEA—have been demonstrated to cause cancer in at least in one species of animal.32'33 Scooby-Doo Bubble Bath contained 3 ppm of 1,4-dioxane. That's a large amount of a chemical toxin to be taking in through your cosmetics. I compare it with three drops in an average size swimming pool. Low levels can have big consequences, we have learned. Then there was L'Oreal Kids Orange Mango Smoothie Shampoo in its orange LPDE #4 bottle." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"The publication was filled with pharmaceutical ads, including one from Sanofi that said I could try Ambien, the pill so tightly controlled by the dea, for free. Late that afternoon, I watched the national news on NBC. In between reports of what the network reporter called an amazing new treatment for Alzheimer's, even though it still had years of testing before possibly being considered for government approval, and a cheerily delivered report entitled "Life-saving Medicine: What's Our Future?" was an ad for Ambien, the pill that "works like a dream." - Melody Petersen, Our Daily Meds: How the Pharmaceutical Companies Transformed Themselves into Slick Marketing Machines and Hooked the Nation on Prescription Drugs (Get the book.)

"Several calls and follow-ups later, Dot and Dave came across John and Margaret O'Dea, who ran the Dunstan House Nursing Home in Calne, a small town only a few miles north. "It was filled with elderly people, but they had this one room that was slightly separate," Dot recalled. It was also next to a bathroom well-equipped to handle disabled patients. The plan was that Stephen would be in this nursing home at night, while Dave and Dot cared for him at home in Devizes during the day. "It took quite a while for this all to be set up. You've got to talk about finances, who would pay for all of this." - Philip Yam, The Pathological Protein: Mad Cow, Chronic Wasting, and Other Deadly Prion Diseases (Get the book.)

"The genius of Kerin O'Dea's experiment was its simplicity—and her refusal to let herself be drawn into the scientific labyrinth of nutritionism. She did not attempt to pick out from the complexity of the diet (either before or after the experiment) which one nutrient might explain the results—whether it was the low-fat diet, or the absence of refined carbohydrates, or the reduction in total calories that was responsible for the improvement in the group's health." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.) "What we did not know before O'Dea took her Aborigines back to the bush (and since she did, a series of comparable experiments have produced similar results in Native Americans and native Hawaiians) was that some of the most deleterious effects of the Western diet could be so quickly reversed. It appears that, at least to an extent, we can rewind the tape of the nutrition transition and undo some of its damage. The implications for our own health are potentially significant." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.)

"Sesame Street Elmo Wet Wild Watermelon Bubble Bath by The Village Company brags it is a new non-DEA formula, which is nice, since, as I've mentioned, dea has been shown to cause cancer in some animal models. But they do not mention that the product contains 7.4 ppm of 1,4-dioxane, according to my laboratory study. I bought Huggies Natural Care Baby Wash Extra Gende with sodium laureth sulfate, PEG-80 sorbitan, sodium triceth sulfate, and PEG-150 distearate. It contained 4.2 ppm of 1,4-dioxane." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"After seven weeks in the bush, O'Dea drew blood from the Aborigines and found striking improvements in virtually every measure of their health. All had lost weight (an average of 1 7.9 pounds) and seen their blood pressure drop.Their triglyceride levels had fallen into the normal range. The proportion of omega-3 fatty acids in their tissues had increased dramatically. " - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.)

"By contrast the dea has repeatedly warned that Ritalin has the same abuse potential as amphetamine.2 Numerous textbooks make the same observation, including the chapter on stimulants in Graham Dukes's encyclopedic textbook, Meyler's Side Effects of Drugs (1996), which observes, "Methylphenidate shares the pharmacological properties and the abuse potential of the amphetamines."3 When it came to how Willow's doctors behaved, the more ominous warnings in the Adderall label proved no more discouraging to them than the weaker Ritalin label." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.) "This is a classic description of episodes of withdrawal or "crashing" in between Ritalin bingeing. The dea seems to have been warning us about Willow's destruction when the agency wrote:4 Like amphetamine and cocaine, abuse of methylphenidate can lead to marked tolerance and psychic dependence. The pattern of abuse is characterized by escalation of dose, frequent episodes of binge use followed by severe depression, and an overpowering desire to continue the use of this drug despite medical and social consequences." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.) "Ron was up front about his addiction problem and how it had led to difficulties with both the Dental Board and the dea several years earlier. The psychiatrist diagnosed his new patient with major depression, panic disorder, and "substance abuse—alcohol and drugs." Within a couple of months of first seeing him, the psychiatrist decided that Ron continued to suffer from panic disorder—frequent episodes of dread with physical symptoms like sweating and palpitations." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.) "The pattern of abuse is characterized by escalation of dose, frequent episodes of binge use followed by severe depression, and an overpowering desire to continue the use of this drug despite medical and social consequences. The dea went on ominously, "The high percentage of attempted suicides [among Ritalin abusers] is consistent with the high frequency of depression associated with stimulant abuse."3 Willow's doctor was also continuing to prescribe Prozac, probably adding to worsening emotional instability. As Willow continued to deteriorate, Mrs." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.)

"Kerin O'Dea, the nutrition researcher who designed the experiment, accompanied the group to monitor and record its dietary intake and keep tabs on the members' health. The Aborigines divided their seven-week stay in the bush between a coastal and an inland location. While on the coast, their diet consisted mainly of seafood, supplemented by birds, kangaroo, and witchetty grubs, the fatty larvae of a local insect. Hoping to find more plant foods, the group moved inland after two weeks, settling at a riverside location." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.)

"The FDA, dea, and CMS have fulfilled the dire prediction of the founders that the union of the three governing powers in single hands would beget tyranny, as those in charge of the agencies use the instrumentalities of government to pursue their own self interest. Each of these agencies is ruled by one all powerful leader, an essential dictatorship. The FDA has one head in its Commissioner." - Jonathan W. Emord, The Rise of Tyranny (Get the book.) "There is little real check on the exercise of the dea Administrator's discretion, not from the Courts, not from the Congress, and not from the President. Here too, corruption exists in the form of industry favoritism. The Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services through Medicare contract carriers (insurance companies under contract to administer the payment of Medicare reimbursements to physicians) exercises vast control over the nature, quality, and quantity of medical care provided to almost every American aged 65 and older." - Jonathan W. Emord, The Rise of Tyranny (Get the book.) "Likewise, FDA maintains a pervasive censorship over therapeutic claims for foods and dietary supplements to ensure that the drug industry enjoys a federally enforced monopoly on the right to communicate treatment information. At dea, the agency's Administrator has driven out of existence some 50 independent suppliers of cough and cold remedies, resulting in the loss of thousands of jobs, actions that financially benefit drug company suppliers to the traditional pharmacies." - Jonathan W. Emord, The Rise of Tyranny (Get the book.)

"These included the use of an ethanol solvent as a potential confounding factor; the potential for the mice to have orally ingested the DEA; claims of undefined "serious limitations in analytical chemistry"; and "inadequate time available for proper review of the studies." While these objections —all highly contrived —were considered by the National Toxicology Program, its conclusions remained unchanged in the final 1999 report." - Samuel S. Epstein, Randall Fitzgerald, Toxic Beauty: How Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Endanger Your Health . . . And What You Can Do about It (Get the book.)

"FDA AND dea DESTRUCTION OF COMPETITION Adrug is statutorily defined not by its physiological effect but by the claims made for it.179 Thus, anything that is said to cure, mitigate, prevent, or treat a disease is a drug. The decision to define a drug by claims made for its use rather than by its biochemistry provides those who obtain new drug approval considerable market protection." - Jonathan W. Emord, The Rise of Tyranny (Get the book.)

"Nature's Gate Spring Fresh deodorant, which is aluminum-free, still contains dea. Nature's Gate Spring Fresh deodorant also includes propylene glycol, a common solvent in toothpastes, deodorant, mouthwash, and other personal care items, that is a penetration enhancer and best to avoid. Another kind of ingredient in deodorants and anti-perspirants that may contribute to breast cancer are hormone-disruptive parabans, discussed in more detail in chapter five. At least a dozen rodent tests since 1998 have documented parabens' hormonal effects." - Samuel S.

"And some of the trainers and 291 DEA: Drug Enforcement Administration other athletes are able to get their hands on it and provide the drugs. But one can easily buy them over the Internet or go to Mexico and buy them legally there." "Why Mexico?" Dr. Greg Olson: "They don't have any legal restrictions on it. Even young people are able to get a hold of these drugs." "Do young athletes have a problem with steroid use also?
