The FDA already knows about all the nasties they allow in food and products for the body care. When you ask them why the nasty things in food, they justify themselves saying the quantity is very small and represents no danger. What they dont want to say and people dont think about, is that those nasties are in most of the food people consume in amounts daily... "small amount" multiplied per day, per week, month... (you get the idea...) piles up and then people get sick or ill with what they were never expecting!! The same applies to beauty products, shampoos and all... but in this case, there are brands who make choices that are the best possible and safe for people to use and it is great that Bobby guides us to those brands! We now know better! Should support those brands and buy none of the rest. FDA is not our friend, it is the businesses' friend. Thank God we have Bobby 😁
I can’t stand going the “regular” grocery store anymore and see all these colorful junk. It is so overwhelming. I am glad that are people like you who educate the public about the dangers of harsh chemicals. You are awesome 👏🏻
True. In bars, they ask their customers, "What's your poison?", But it's obvious after viewing so many of these videos that those "regular" franchises and corporations create every possible mixture of expensive good stuff and cheap bad stuff imaginable. So maybe these regular retail and grocery stores should be asking their customers "What's your poison" instead, because you really do have a lot of options of which to take and which not to take, so long as you accept some*.
All we have is people like this that make you think everything out there is bad... When in fact they're just doing it so they can sell their own products to you, the cat, the consumer. There are millions of people that use these products, ender still alive and well and good-looking.. it's people like this guy that make you believe everything out there is harmful. That you have to live your life organically. It's a big lie and it's all money money money money money money money money money money money money money...
I have been using shampoo bars for about 2 years, they last for ages,the brand I use is organic. No more itchy scalp, no more plastic bottles, no messy surprises when you travel.
Shampoo -sodium lauryl sulfate -methylchloroisothiazolinone -methylisothiazolinone -(Blue 1) or any other color name Deodorants and more -Sodium cocoyl glutamate -fragrance or parfume (honeypot for chemicals) -PPG -Petrolium -Butane -Propelyne Glycol -Methylparaben -Carragreenan -Phenoxyethanol -Titanium Dioxide -Propylene Glycol
Imo all dyes too, red,blue,yellow. Don't forget blue "lake". The lake is not a pretty blue lake like its seems; but one full of multiple metals. They should of called it metal lake...
Use organic castille soap for shampoo, dish soap, laundry, bathroom cleaner, floor wash, pet wash, etc. Unscented is best. Don't put anything on your skin that you would not eat. It gets absorbed.
Thank you for this.. I have estrogen driven breast cancer. I recently found you, just in time.. I am making so many changes in all products I use. I can’t believe how they allow greed for these products that harm us..
it's not always greed. there was a time when chemicals were seen as fabulous man made inventions. and a way to save natural resources (and yes cheaper) .. it's just gotten out of hand where our entire environment is chemicals.
The true $ is in medicating the masses for the rest of their lives. How do they ensure that? By making everyone sick first. Their defense is they list the ingredients, even though they use language no one can decipher. The deception runs deep, in all things unfortunately.
May God be with you hun. Don't use anything they recommend for any skin, hair (if you still have it) because they are wrong and if you mention it they will argue with you. I've been through it all and if I can do it you can too. Much 💘
I started baking my own soap because commercial soap broke my hands out so bad. I did my research and ended up using goats milk with olive oil, coconut oil and other oils to make my soap. Now my skin is just fine.
One day I ran out of cleansers to clean the bath and shower with. In desperation I grabbed a bottle of shampoo that I wasn’t using any more. I figured it might get rid of some of the grime until I could go to the store. To my shock and some horror it worked so well I ended up using the rest of my shampoos as the cleaner until they were all gone. Now I use an apple cider vinegar rinse on my hair and that’s it. My hair has never felt more beautiful and I’ve lessened the frizzies quite a lot. If my hair is particularly grubby, I’ll make up a runny paste of bicarb Soda and water and wash my scalp with that, rinse until it’s all gone and end with an ACV rinse. Best thing I ever did for my hair and it’s cheap as chips.
Acv is abbreviation for apple cider vinegar. I am not the one who posted, so I can't say what they do, but I believe it's some apple cider vinegar in water poured over the hair, left on a bit, then rinsed with plain water. Don't do this if you have white hair. It can yellow it.
I started using Cantu brand for my skin. It's all natural with only three ingredients : 100% shea butter, coconut oil and mango butter. They also have one with coconut oil, shea butter and hemp seed oil and another one with cocoa butter, shea butter and coconut oil. Just three 100% natural ingredients!
As a retired hairdresser, it's refreshing to see someone talk about the right things to use. BTW, Dr Bronners can be used as a shampoo as well. You can even use it on your dog as a pet shampoo PROVIDED you use the unscented one. (Certain essential oils are bad for dogs.)
All essential oils are toxic for cats, and yet they sell “natural” products which use various essential oils. I purchased them before I knew. So clearly we do need watchdogs and educators out there both with human and animal products since the manufacturers often don’t have a conscience.
Great video!!! As someone who is being treated for cancer, I have to be SO CAREFUL to stay away from any sort of estrogen disrupters...whether the food or chemicals in the house or what I put on my skin! This video was so helpful.
Suzanne Somers was talking about shampoo back years ago and how you need to be careful what you use close to your brain. Her and Mary Lou Henner we're ahead of their time
I use her products. Her conditioner is amazing. But thanks to Bobby for all his good work. Especially he can grab the younger generation. Love Suzanne!
Inspired by a suggestion about reaactivate hair serum of liitllextra, I thought I’d give it a go. After finishing four bottles, I’m seeing new hair growth.
He talks fragrance 🤦♀️ one of his Bobby approved has fragrance that set off my allergies 😢 it’s Hey Humans so if you’ve severe allergies STAY AWAY from that one!!!
Maybe you already do but it would be FANTASTIC if have had an Amazon store with all your approved products or on Thrive market so we don't have to look up each individual product, we can just shop all your products at the same time! I appreciate what you do! And I want your pots/pans when they come out! ❤
I’ve been studying this for years and a hormonal imbalance is what you put in and not on. What you put on is dealing with radiation, chemtrails, and things coming from the Sun.
Thanks, the hormone disruption creates erratic behavior, when I remind myself this I stop socializing, and its because I stop worrying about what people think of my actions, which makes me a powerful force for good, great video.
Great video. One thing worth mentioning (which was not explicitly mentioned) is that all synthetic fragrances and perfumes contain phthalates - which is essentially paraban’s twin sister and is, from my research, one of the absolute worst hormone disrupters out there. So ladies and men, if your product say Paraban free but still has fragrance then put it back. There’s no point in taking out the parabans if you don’t take out the phthalates too.
So no perfume 🫣😩 I’m going to have to do better by dropping the lotions and watching my skincare products but perfume, I’m going to have to keep that. lol We can’t be perfect.
I love how he explains to us WHY these ingredients are bad. Not just this ingredient is bad don’t use this product. I want to be informed so I can know exactly why I shouldn’t use a particular brand. Thankyou!!!
lol you may want to watch lab muffin beauty science who is a chemist who Debunks everything he and others like him is saying. He is Not a chemist Nor a doctor
I would also like to point out that most people who believe they have dandruff are most commonly seeing just a dry scalp. That doesn't mean you need an anti-dandruff shampoo, it just means you need something that is going to moisturize/not dry out your scalp
💯. I worked as a barber stylist and people generally never have true dandruff. It’s almost always a dry scalp or a build up of products. The need a good scalp cleanser then go to one of these listed products. Tea tree oil is good
I do somewhat agree, a lot of not good stuff are put in self care stuff but for example, petrolium based products aren’t always bad. Sodium, explodes on contact with water, Chlorine, corrosive and incredibly toxic. Sodium-Chloride should be really deadly then right? Nope it’s literal salt. Point is don’t just judge something by what it’s made from.
Thank you for the valuable and eye-opening information. I do have Insulin resistance and PCOS andI'm in my 20s. I've always be told and hear "you need to change your diet, eat clean to reverse these conditions," but no one has ever told me to be mindful of the cosmetics and body products you choose. I didn't know many of these products we know, use, and see on a daily basis were so bad for us( especially for women). I will be scanning all the products with your app tomorrow and throwing out the ones that are not Bobby approved ( which is probably about 80 to 90% of them 🤦♀️). I am eating better, started keto a few weeks ago and I'm already feeling better and starting to sleep much better too and longer. Thank you Bobby for educating the lost and blind like me. You're amazing 🤗
Bobby, I had thyroid cancer! No issues with fertility, but I'm always in a hormonal imbalance. My diet is mostly Bobby approved. I use schmidts aluminum free deodorant but I never thought about shampoos! Thank you very much for this video! I'll try.
Thanks bobby I've followed your tactic of "if there's one bad ingredients it must be entirely harmful" so i stopped everything. I stopped eating because eating can cause stomach problems, and I've also stopped breathing because theres nitrogen in the air which can be harmful so, I'll follow your advice and stop breathing completely.
I admit that every time I read the ingredients & nothing I understand, then I buy what ever I feel is good although all these commercial brands are seriously bad. You don't know how much this really helped me to make a new healthy list !! The good thing, you mentioned a lot of names as not every brand is in every market. Thanks from the bottom of my heart
I go to a herbalist in Arizona. She grows her own herbs and makes organic body soaps and shampoo bars and lotions. Organic oils and herbs are amazing on the skin. My skin is moisturized even without lotion. ❤
She also has healing salves for rashes and burns and eczema, and organic baby rash cream. It is sad that our government is trying to poison us while herbs can heal the body.
I'm feeling a little skeptical. I've been using all of these products my entire life (I'm almost 50), as have my parents, sisters, brothers, children, aunts, uncles; etc. and NO ONE has ever experienced a skin irritation, infertility, cancer, hormone issues; etc. If these items are that bad, wouldn't one of us have had one of these problems at one point?
Doesn’t happen to everyone but for some it loads up the lymphatic system and have lots of side effects. Some things have gluten also so some people that are sensitive to gluten don’t know that are using gluten on their body.
If I’m informed and can choose between products with quality ingredients.. then I’ll say no thanks to tar, petroleum, butane and blue dyes, sulfates etc.
Cetaphyl was what was recommended to me from my oncology team for use during my radiation treatment for estrogen positive breast cancer!! What are these people thinking!! Thank you bobby. In remission now and changing my whole bath and body supply.
So a team of highly trained specialist are dumber than this guy?? I work in oncology. We recommend Eucerin and Cera Ve all the time. Trust me, it is not dangerous like Bobby says it is. If it were, he should be providing evidence based sources with these bs claims.
Being allergic to many things I have always ONLY used unscented products. Baby shampoo has been my friend since the 1950s. Baking soda with a drop of hydrogen peroxide makes for an excellent healthy teeth care - good enough for my grandmother so good for me. Use it carefully on skin as well. I sold Avon, Mary Kay, & other lines years ago. One allergic reaction & it had to go. It's always best to stick with clean clear water to wash your face. Additives add to your body's negative issues.
One tip about Schmidt deodorants. Many women of color have complained about rashes and irritation with this product. It also was not effective for many. There are so many ways to avoid needing antiperspirants unless you have a major problem with perspiration.
I've been using Cerave for 6 years and it has helped my skin dramatically. Finding one ingredient that you say is bad and discarding a product is quite ridiculous in some cases. When it comes to ingredients, you have to pay attention to why it's used and how much is used. An ingredient that far down on the list means it's not much utilized in the product.
I agree. Take this guy with a grain of salt. I've done so much research into ingredients and it's great to be informed, but some of this guys fears are a bit overblown. Derms generally really like Cereve, and petroleum based ingredients aren't necessarily dangerous.
It us rare to find a Dermatologist that can be trusted. I have had to deal with the for many years for an actual medical condition. I'm not the kind of patient they want. Their whole "business" is directed toward those who pay cash for cosmetic procedures.
About 18 months ago I stopped using all shampoos because they contain lots of plastic. If you have shiny hair or you see it on celebrities or news people it’s because there’s plastic in the shampoo and conditioner, coding the hair to make it shine. Anything with PEG, polyethylene glycol, polysorbate, or any of those glycol - poly things are crap. I have been using pure Castile soap for hair and body, and it has done wonders for my hair and my skin.
I would be so appreciative if you did a skin care video - face wash, moisturizer, eye cream, make up, etc I’d love to know what the trusted brands are for your wife on all things beauty products if your willing to share. Great video! Thanks Bobby
No wonder we have so much cancer. I am currently going through breast radiation and the Drs and nurses have me slathering on these thick lotions and Aquafor. Here I am trying to get rid of bad cells and I am putting poisons right back onto my body!
1/4 c Organic Coconut oil with about 20 drops of frankincense essential oil...I used when I went thru radiation on my neck..still use it 7 years later. Frankincense is full of good stuff!!
Radiation itself is poison. Skip that too. Terrible idea to destroy your immune system to kill off cancer cells. It’s better to take iodine and selenium but they tell you not to.Building your immune system is the best way of fighting it at the root. Frankincense is actually cancer killing. Do some research on castor oil too. I’ve learned that it’s a miracle oil. You have to choose the right kind as well… lots of great videos on that topic will lead you in the right direction. Blessings and God speed. ❤️🩹
Yes! Bend Soap company is AHMAZING! Soaps, lotions, ointment etc with goat milk and essential oils. You can eat them if you want to, but not appetizing 😂
Dear God! I'm overwhelmed. One good thing you mentioned is Castile is good; I've been using it for years, forsaking other shampoos & body washes. THANKS.
There is an app called Think Dirty that allows you to scan products similar to your food app. I threw away piles of products including hundreds of dollars of Aveda products full of PEG after a rare skin lymphoma diagnosis. Thank you, as always for the education 🙏🏽
you have to stop trusting apps like that. everything can be toxic, even water - look up water toxicity. if you drink 15 cups really quickly, you get really sick; some people have even died from it. those apps dont base their ''toxic'' ratings on studies where people are getting sick from cosmetic products. theyre based on unrealistic conditions like rats eating massive amounts. these studies are purposely trying to find the line where it becomes toxic so scientists can work out how to make sure it is safe. if youre buying from a reputable brand, theyre using the ingredient in a scientifically supported, safe way. those apps are misinterpreting the science. theyre basicaly saying "drinking 15 cups of water is really toxic, so you need to avoid anything with even one drop of water" its the dose that makes the poison
My grand parents who lived well into their 90’s used baking soda under their pits and also brushed their teeth with it. Both had all their own teeth when they died. BUT, they also didn’t eat sugary junk. So, there’s that too 🤷🏼♀️😊
@@underated17 My grandparents and great grandparents kept honey and sorghum molasses on the table, these would be mixed with fresh butter and eaten on your last biscuit. Cake was made from scratch and there was homemade apple butter and preserves as well as canned fruit. They made their own ice cream and ate what was in season. They ate a lot of pork like bacon and sausage and they didn't have high cholesterol. Eggs and chicken they raised themselves and they smoked and dipped snuff. They all lived into their 80s and 90s.I love to right about culture and history so I may have said more than you are interested in. 👩🏻🌾
I replaced baby oil (petroleum-based) with food-grade organic coconut oil. Also excellent for removing eye makeup. What I care about is NO ANIMAL TESTING.
@@Bronte866 Coconut oil is highly comedogenic, which means it can clog pores. Consequently, it may actually make acne worse for some people (22). When applied to the skin, coconut oil may clog pores and make acne worse. It is not recommended for those with very oily skin.3 Aug 2020
I have been using Head & Shoulders for 30 years. I've tried other brands and I don't like how they leave my hair. I don't have any hormone problems or anything... my hair looks very healthy. I'm 57 and have 3 or 4 white hairs only.
I too use H & S, everytime I stray off for another brand or even the crazy priced "clean" "conscious " ones they are garbage and I suffer til I get back to H & S, usually the first wash relieves most of it & the 2nd washing takes care of it completely. A lot of these purified products are a scam. I've used ACV before but it's not for long term use. It's a once a month thing, nothing more, it deep cleans.
What is causing your dandruff? The chemicals initially make it ‘better’ but then you have to keep using it to keep up your hair, which causes more dandruff. It’s a ⭕️ circle. Look for the cause, treat that and your hair will thrive. 😊
Removing SLS from toothpaste and Shampoos has literally changed my hygiene for the better. I had no clue that SLS was causing my sensitive skin and mouth so much problems.
@H I Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. It is a detergent used to make the product spread and suds more. So really foamy toothpaste and soaps. But, especially for those who have more sensitive skins and mouths, it can be very irritating. And fun fact, that funny taste after you brush when you take a drink is not mint it is SLS which alters taste buds for a short period of time.
I’m sorry Bobby, but you claim these healthy products are pretty cheap and not that expensive compared to the common products. But if a single bar of soap costs me $4.29, I will go broke pretty soon. The issue with these products is that I can’t afford them sustainably. A 12 pack of Dove bar soaps cost me $15 while a 12 pack of your recommended bar soaps would cost me almost $52. It’s just not sustainable for the average person, especially if you are in college and on a budget.
Still not seeing how this isn’t possible. 52 dollars is 3-4 hours of work on a minimum wage. 12 bars, That’s enough soap still for at least 2 months. 52 dollars to put good products into your body instead of synthetic BS is definitely better u can’t make excuses
@@lino2185 Like I said, it’s possible but not sustainable. Imagine using half a day’s worth of work to buy ONE product that is good for you, not multiple products. It’s not about excuses. Go on a college campus and ask students if they rather pay $52 for better soap than $12 for average soap. As one myself, we will always opt in for the latter unless you are financially blessed and do not have to worry about any of the economics of college. And this is just for soap… add those $52 to a list of better products that we could be buying and you will be spending hundreds more. You’ve gotta be realistic. I’m all for buying better, healthier, and authentic products. But what’s the point if it’s going to break the bank every time I do so, potentially causing more harm than good.
Think of it as paying a little extra now for your health, so that you don’t have to pay a ton extra in time and bills for a health problem these can cause.
god bless you for all information and hard work so so helpfull my daughter has keratoconus eye disease caused by pollution also goes bollistic before period we cant go out anywhere she is 40 yrs old she suffered for 20 yrs please keep up the good work much love
I have been using only Desert Essence products for cleansing my hair since 2019 and will NEVER go back to the junk I used before! Desert Essence and Dr. Bronner's products are the only brands that my family uses when it comes to shampoo, body wash, moisturizing, toothpaste, etc. I definitely recommend these brands to anyone who is wanting to stray away from toxic junk. 💚
@@kristenranda3882 I used to bleach and dye my hair on a regular basis before having kids. I went through sooo many boxes of black dye as a teenager as well as beginning my 20's. (Never again will I damage my hair like that! 🤣) I stopped when I was pregnant with my first child and haven't touched my hair with chemicals since. I may color my hair in the future, but I've made peace with my natural color for now.
Necessaire, Naturium, and Iota are really improving body care. Plus, Naturium is at Target at an accessible price. All have fragrance-free options (essential oils can also be irritating to some people). And from what I've learned from dermatologists and cosmetic chemists, CeraVe is a very good brand. Parabens are just a small part of a very good overall formula with ceramides, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin. La Roche Posay is also a pretty good and dependable drug store brand.
CeraVe is garbage. They just spend a ton of money marketing to Dermatologists. The one time I was stupid enough to use a CerVe lotion, my skin broke out!! The Korean brands ( still have to read ingredient lists) are much more better formulated for sensitive skin, use all the active ingredients as CerVe, and don't cause break outs and are often cheaper. CeraVe can rot in the garbage can!
Yes, I use all CeraVe products and they are Dermatologist recommended and better than a lot of brands. Methylparaben is in CeraVe products as a preservative needed to keep bacteria from growing in the products. It's definitely less harmful than people think. Dr. Dray on RUclips has a video from 2018 on Parebens in cosmetics and she is a Board Certified Dermatologist so she has more knowledge on chemicals in cosmetic products.
I just started watching you Bobby thanks to Dr. Burg. I'm getting a great education and am on my way to making much better choices as well as my wife. This is great information and I'm spreading the word!!!!
It be so cool if you wrote a family friendly personal care product book!!!! I'd buy it in a second for all my family and friends. I encourage you to do that some day soon as we want the best for all who buy everyday products. We need to use better quality products...be great to know what's out there. Thank you1
I have looked at this since 2018 when I read up about a girl who got sick and she had tests to determine what's wrong with her. Her dermatologists asked her about her products and after that she put a long list of products that are bad for you.Since then I even make my own body butter. Most shampoos have edta, sls, petroleum, glycerine
@@lifeisdynamic2464 absolutely not. It's made from either vegetable oils or animal fat depending if you're vegan or not, it's odorless, non-toxic and completely safe to use on your hair and skin. You can even make your own
I tried Lume deodorant and it gave me a burn under each armpit - went to a dermatologist and she said she had several people come in with skin reactions to LUME !!!!!
I make most of my own products using essential oils, coconut oil, shea butters, mango butters, vitamin e oil, argon oil, Castile soap etc... it's so much healthier and feel so nice on the skin.
I love how many comments youre getting! It means you're popular!❤ I ve been watching your channel for years! Keep them coming! I like getting informed and ideas.
Petroleum jelly is very good at maintaining the skin hydrated longer and works also for helping in case of small wounds. And parabens are the safest artificial preservatives.
For Anti perspirants - most have Aluminum (toxic like LEAD) , anything you put on your pits is right next to your breast (men and women) ... if you are clogging yout pits with heavy metals that are toxic, right next to your breast tissue !!! Crystal is a mineral salt and it antibacterial so it kills the smellies without clogging your pores (which can cause build up of toxins your body is trying to sweat out. For soap, most all have SLS (sodium laurel sulphate) look for saponified oils ( castille soap , Bonners) so much better than regular soap and not as drying on your skin.
jesus no that aluminium in deodorants scare was debunked many years ago. Try to keep up. You know your body is full of aluminium, especially your blood, and you'd be dead without it?
Cetaphil has another lotion that does not have those harmful ingredients. It looks similar to the bottle you showed in this vid. It's their light weight sensitive skin formula. Been using it for years and it helped my skin improve.
I haven't used deodorant for years, I just shower any time I get sweaty. I'll never forget looking at the label and thinking "rubbing titanium into my skin can't be good".😳
@@Brandon-uy1uv I live in North Carolina so it's hot, I just take as many as 5 showers per day. Just a quick, cool rinse whenever necessary, it's more refreshing. There's almost always air conditioning, and nothing beats a fresh set of clothes after a cool shower. Sounds like a lot but it's actually everyone else who's sweating! 😉
I used to have bad dandruff. It was sodium Laurel sulfates in my shampoo and conditioners. I found yes to carrots tea tree and sage shampoo and conditioner and no more head and shoulders needed.
I tried this Thrive thing you reccommend and they are PRICEY! I have found pretty good success on Amazon with no SLS in shampoo and Native for my deodorant. Much cheaper and you get it in bulk.
@@helenarichard no USE DEODORANT. For the love of god USE DEODORANT. Especially if you’re in school. I have in kid in my class who doesnt use deodorant. Feels like im a jew in the 1940s. Its horrible
❤Old days in india people used- Body wash- Chickpea flour and water (also acts as an exfoliate) Body pack- multani mitti Hair color- henna mixed with (Beetroot juice, tea, lemon and yogurt) Shampoo- shikakai powder Conditioner- amla and reetha powders Body and face lotion- coconut oil❤
But they also bathed in the same river at which they cremate and spread their dead. Religious tradition is going to happen. But the act of also bathing there... Not a great role model of hygeine. Js
@@gothic7821 lol looks like you are a very negative person in general cuz normally positive people don't bring up the negatives just because someone mentioned some positives about something.
@@varsharao86 No, it wasn't "just because someone mentioned the positives." It's because it's *UNHYGIENIC* and personally, I'd rather not wash with things which promote bacterial growth, promote musky body odors, or bathe in city river water known to kill fish and spread of dysentery. Awapuhi is a more effective shampoo alternate, and it doesn't smell like someone bathed in hummus and dahl. But yeah, if you like those smells on your body, go for it. You do you, boo.
Also, coconut oil, is moderately comedogenic. So on the face, expect the possibility of increased blackheads and acne of varying degrees. Following with witch hazel and rose water will help prevent that a bit.
@@gothic7821 ok I don't know about that. Her whole life my grandmother used coconut oil on her face till she was 95 and never did I see one acne on her face the entire time I've been alive. And not only did she put it on her face. She also applied it over her body. Esplly during winters. And I also know many others who use coconut oil.
I worked in the automotive industry for part of my younger adult life... and when I got older, I developed gut issues, and had to use Miralax before colonoscopies... upon reading the ingredients, it occurred to me that the ingredients were very similar sounding to antifreeze!!! 😮
Absolutely correct. 😢 next colonoscopy use a different prep. They have one with just magnesium citrate - cherry flavor I believe. Safe ! Miralax NO! :)
The bar soaps don't contain sodium benzoate either, which with Covid cleaning I found myself to be allergic to. It also cuts down on plastic, and other undesirable ingredients.
This explains all my issues! For years I've suffered from constant skin and hair issues. I grew up using most of those brands. I no longer buy them. I've switched to Japanese brands for my hair and only use scented-free products for my skin. Major improvement. It also made me realize that I wasted money on a Dermatologist.
I had an awful, itchy rash on my arms. A dermatologist just gave me more ( expensive ) toxic goo . I figured out it was the chemicals, switched to pure soap and it's been gone for decades.
It's wise to pay attention to Europe's bans as they may have banned something decades ago, meanwhile here in the US it's still included. Big pharma, food and government here all benefit while we get sick, require medication and hospitalization. $$$ I've heard Europeans say they can taste the chemicals in our food.
Thank you so much Bobby. I have been searching for safer products as I was just diagnosed with advanced Nash last year. I’m fighting not progress for my 2 autistic daughters. Lost 75 pounds this past year and you’ve helped me so much &. this video was like you read my mind.
Search Effects of Yokukansan, a Japanese Kampo Medicine for Symptoms Associated Autism Spectrum Disorder I have researched these herbs and they are fanatic for healing!!! Thank you
I use pure olive oil soap traditionally made in Greece in small family companies, as well these from Aleppo and Nabblus. Its literally among the most pure, cleanest products you can use on your skin and on your hair . No allergies no skin irritations not hormones no plastic . Also suitable for cleaning sensitive clothing and they are much much cheaper.
Appreciate the time and dedication you have to teaching us all of this. Im definitely making some swaps. As someone whose been in Mammography and studying about breast cancer alone, endocrine disruptors definitely play a role.
Endocrine disruptors are in damn near everything, sadly. This is probably why we're seeing more and more cases of breast cancer .. well cancer in general, actually.
Most definitely and that's also why so many people are having trouble conceiving. Most women are literally dousing themselves in these chemicals from fingernail polish to lipstick and other types of makeup and hair dye. Add on lotions & body wash it goes on and on. When I see little girls with nail polish and makeup on, I'm thinking they're already being exposed to these chemicals at 2. What's going to happen to them when they're in their mid-20s early thirties and want to have children? What really makes my blood boil is that the FDA has zero authority over this. When they should be policing what's in these products!!! In Europe and other countries, this is not allowed to occur. Unfortunately in America where lobbyist are King. We get treated like trash. The FDA isn't looking out for your best welfare. Beauty product safety should be the top priority but it seems it's their last priority..
Please dear avoid mammogram, go for ultrasound. Avoid X-ray. My oncologist always asks me to avoid X-ray because gynecologists always ask for mammogram.
What you buy is what you get . Glad I never used deodorant not my genes no hair no smell . I don’t buy cheap I’m 75 now fully retired. I used all the best one my hair almost got lots of compliments. Especially hair oil the most expensive and yes ask me what shampoo or what I used to my hair . You paid what you got .
Today, I just bought Dial Spring Water body wash and I was actually looking for something that's not loaded with artificial stuff and like Bobby stated with other products, it's loaded with Sodium Laureth Sulfate and about 4 PEGS ingredients. I'm returning it back to Walmart. I've been using Suave body wash and I know that's no better. I usually research online ingredients, but I was out of body wash and couldn't' really read the ingredients on the Dial product. I just order from Urban Hydration, black owned personal care business that have nothing but all natural ingredients . I ordered a face wash, face cream and spot treatment cream, all based on Aloe Vera.
Acure is one of my favorite brands. I find it at a low price at TJ Maxx or Marshall's. But finding their products is hit or miss and you might not always find exactly what you are looking for but it worth a shot if your looking to save a little money.
I tried the Acure shampoo and conditioner and I love it. I’ve tried pretty much everything I could find on the market and finally this works for me. Everything else causes my head to itch but not this. Thank you.
I lotion with cold pressed virgin or extra virgin organic coconut oil. My mom used to make it in PR when I was little. She used to put it on our body, hair and gave us a spoon full every day. I also like to use organic shea butter. Love the channel and videos.
Ok but let's not forget that a sit-in/leave-in product is different than one you wash away quickly. Having bad ingredients in a shampoo like S.L.S and PEG-40 is less bad than in a conditioner or a mask, which sink deeper into your skin. Also, it depends how often you use it. Currently, my facial wash has S.L.S, PEG, Propylene Glycol... however I use it like twice a week. Also, it's hard to find the 'perfect' product. You find something without S.L.S and PEG but it has fragrance, or doesn;t have fragrance but has dimethicone.
Modern marketing has convinced many consumers that they need products when truthfully some of them could most likely be eliminated and you would be healthier for it.
Dermatologists would have a field day with you and your assessments. Those are the very products and brands they promote weekly and no doubt they would ferociously defend them. Especially Dr. Dray.
@wandahumphrey9378 I agree with you totally. I second Bobby and his views. Just wanted to say that I think most dermatologists would take an issue with his views, especially one in particular who is very vocal about things she is against. When people speak against what she is promoting, she retaliates. Have a great night, Wanda.
Dermatologists recommend slathering insanely toxic sun block all over yourself before going out and opening your pores in the sunlight. That alone should let you know what kind of "doctors" they are and how much they really care about you.
@@JoaninFlorida This is more because the FDA hasn't approved a new sunscreen ingredient in over 25 years. Compared to Europe and South Korea, both use newer and better ingredients, but there is nothing else Dermatologists in the US can do.
That OGX brand has a pending lawsuit about their ingredients turning into formaldehyde and causing hair loss in people. I used it for years and now have very thin hair!
Thank you so much for writing this! I literally just bought this shampoo the other day. I haven’t tried it yet so I’m going to return it. It looks pretty decent when looking at it in the store and the “ vitamins” for hair growth.
Well unfortunately that won’t happen because some people literally need shampoo for example or need facial stuff for acne or u know what ever the case my be but doing nothing will never work.
I kind of agree. We really are putting too much shit on our bodies and in our bodies every day and we really don't need 99% of it. Yes, we need shampoo, and we need to keep our bodies clean but all of this crap they're selling is ridiculous. We just don't NEED it, but for some reason we WANT it. We're all brain washed; We're easily manipulated, and we're lazy.
Just bought a trial size of Garnier sleek & shine shampoo to try. All my other shampoo, conditioner, deoderant and body wash are not keepers but I bought them and have to use them because it's what I have. Can't afford to throw out what I have but here to learn what are the safest products. I've relied on what is stated on the front of products to try them. My eyesight is not the best and cant see all that fine print on the back. Thank you sir.
I make my own deodorant. It’s baking soda, arrowroot powder, coconut oil and a few drops of essential oils. I like lavender and patchouli mixed. Works great. And for my husband, it doesn’t make his glands flare up. He’s pretty much allergic to all store deodorants
I do it also but use baking soda and cornstarch mix I apply after applying coconut oil on my pits. I never had a deodorant work this well. I used to use Mitchell's and it was the best for me but all of them gradually stop working after a while.
@@franwebb7756 Both my husband and I love the natural stuff and it works better than the store bought brands that have so many chemicals in them. And of course it’s cheaper to make our own. It’s a win win win 👍🏻😊
Thank you for continuing to bring attention to this. The more we all speak out the more it gets serious attention. 🙂 Have you done a video about cornstarch/malodextrin in foods causing allergies?
Several of the products you speak of are things that have been specifically recommended by my Drs, for skin conditions that I have, including my dermatologist, primary care and my vascular surgeon. I have lymphedema on my legs which causes the skin to be extremely dry, and prone to cellulitis so just any lotion for the dryness can’t be used because it causes infections. Both my Dr and the lymphedema clinic I go to prefers Eucerin, CeraVe, or Amlactin. I use Lume products where I can and my main reason for using them was the lack of Aluminum which you had nothing to say anything about. I’m 72 and I’ve heard of connections between aluminum and dementia since I was in my 30s. Why wasn’t aluminum in products an issue that you’ve spoken about ?
Yea always DYOR and cross reference. Anything short or absolute medical conditions that require certain specific things that work to cure the immediate condition I just try to find the least number of ingredients and the most natural possible and stick with that.
Listen to your doctor. He is fear monger if about parabens, petroleum, tar, mineral oil etc. those have been recommended by dermatologists for years and are science backed for many skin conditions. The fragrance, dyes/colors, and penetration enhancing ingredients should be avoided when possible. Natural fragrance is just as bad as synthetic, especially because it is variable.
@@Hyper_Driven This 100%. I use plant based/natural stuff as much as I can. A person with ezcema and sensitive skin might be prescribed any variety of these things. A good natural soap company that many people might not know about is Buff City Soap.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@BobbyParrish at least you could say that you have worked at the FDA at one point in your life.😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣👍🏻
That’s for sure ! FDA is corrupt as the CDC, FBI and all the other 3 letters agencies
@@BobbyParrish someone is using your pic to spam all the comments here with crypto crap.
The FDA already knows about all the nasties they allow in food and products for the body care.
When you ask them why the nasty things in food, they justify themselves saying the quantity is very small and represents no danger. What they dont want to say and people dont think about, is that those nasties are in most of the food people consume in amounts daily... "small amount" multiplied per day, per week, month... (you get the idea...) piles up and then people get sick or ill with what they were never expecting!!
The same applies to beauty products, shampoos and all... but in this case, there are brands who make choices that are the best possible and safe for people to use and it is great that Bobby guides us to those brands! We now know better! Should support those brands and buy none of the rest.
FDA is not our friend, it is the businesses' friend. Thank God we have Bobby 😁
I can’t stand going the “regular” grocery store anymore and see all these colorful junk. It is so overwhelming. I am glad that are people like you who educate the public about the dangers of harsh chemicals. You are awesome 👏🏻
Watch "the pressley girls". They make and sell their own homemade soap.
True. In bars, they ask their customers, "What's your poison?",
But it's obvious after viewing so many of these videos that those "regular" franchises and corporations create every possible mixture of expensive good stuff and cheap bad stuff imaginable.
So maybe these regular retail and grocery stores should be asking their customers "What's your poison" instead,
because you really do have a lot of options of which to take and which not to take, so long as you accept some*.
All we have is people like this that make you think everything out there is bad... When in fact they're just doing it so they can sell their own products to you, the cat, the consumer. There are millions of people that use these products, ender still alive and well and good-looking.. it's people like this guy that make you believe everything out there is harmful. That you have to live your life organically. It's a big lie and it's

Use organic castille soap for shampoo, dish soap, laundry, bathroom cleaner, floor wash, pet wash, etc. Unscented is best. Don't put anything on your skin that you would not eat. It gets absorbed.
You would drink Castile soap?
@spark967 the ingredients in my castille soap are safe to consume (organic olive oil, soda and water)
@@silvieb2024mi
Don’t use Castile soap in your hair or it will fall out years before naturally should
Exactly been practicing this for years one of the rule in natural medicine
Thank you for this.. I have estrogen driven breast cancer. I recently found you, just in time.. I am making so many changes in all products I use. I can’t believe how they allow greed for these products that harm us..
Stay well 🙏🏻 I think making these changes will greatly help you in your recovery
Same here, Hope. Mine was stage two and so far, so good.. I had no idea how bad these products are. Definitely making some changes!!
it's not always greed. there was a time when chemicals were seen as fabulous man made inventions. and a way to save natural resources (and yes cheaper) .. it's just gotten out of hand where our entire environment is chemicals.
The true $ is in medicating the masses for the rest of their lives. How do they ensure that? By making everyone sick first. Their defense is they list the ingredients, even though they use language no one can decipher. The deception runs deep, in all things unfortunately.
May God be with you hun. Don't use anything they recommend for any skin, hair (if you still have it) because they are wrong and if you mention it they will argue with you. I've been through it all and if I can do it you can too. Much 💘
I started baking my own soap because commercial soap broke my hands out so bad. I did my research and ended up using goats milk with olive oil, coconut oil and other oils to make my soap. Now my skin is just fine.
How do you smell?
That’s amazing! How do you do it? Do you have a link to a video I can follow?
Sorry no. But there are lots of soap making videos on UTube. Just do some research like I did.
I did too.
You should make a RUclips short. Help us out🙂❤️

One day I ran out of cleansers to clean the bath and shower with. In desperation I grabbed a bottle of shampoo that I wasn’t using any more. I figured it might get rid of some of the grime until I could go to the store. To my shock and some horror it worked so well I ended up using the rest of my shampoos as the cleaner until they were all gone.
Now I use an apple cider vinegar rinse on my hair and that’s it. My hair has never felt more beautiful and I’ve lessened the frizzies quite a lot. If my hair is particularly grubby, I’ll make up a runny paste of bicarb Soda and water and wash my scalp with that, rinse until it’s all gone and end with an ACV rinse. Best thing I ever did for my hair and it’s cheap as chips.
No shampoo? And what is the ACV rinse?
@@michellealbrecht2222 apple cider vinegar. The vinegar smell goes away.
Acv is abbreviation for apple cider vinegar. I am not the one who posted, so I can't say what they do, but I believe it's some apple cider vinegar in water poured over the hair, left on a bit, then rinsed with plain water. Don't do this if you have white hair. It can yellow it.
I can't stand the smell of apple cider vinegar though 🤢
This is what helps dry flaky hair just use a spray bottle of ACV. leave on 15min. before washing and conditioning..Not every week..Btw is needed.
I started using Cantu brand for my skin. It's all natural with only three ingredients : 100% shea butter, coconut oil and mango butter. They also have one with coconut oil, shea butter and hemp seed oil and another one with cocoa butter, shea butter and coconut oil. Just three 100% natural ingredients!
As a retired hairdresser, it's refreshing to see someone talk about the right things to use. BTW, Dr Bronners can be used as a shampoo as well. You can even use it on your dog as a pet shampoo PROVIDED you use the unscented one. (Certain essential oils are bad for dogs.)
But its awful. It leaves soap film.
@@missmayflower it makes my hair feel like straw.
anyone can be a hairdresser. hairdressers can be just as susceptible to misinformation as the average person
It trashes my hair and would decrease an engine! I can’t use the liquid Dr bronner. Soap bar is good but then i need a lot of moisterizer .
All essential oils are toxic for cats, and yet they sell “natural” products which use various essential oils. I purchased them before I knew. So clearly we do need watchdogs and educators out there both with human and animal products since the manufacturers often don’t have a conscience.

Exactly, then we wonder why so many women deal with hormonal imbalance! Thank you for spreading the word on this!
I’ve been studying this for years and a hormonal imbalance is what you put in and not on. What you put on is dealing with radiation, chemtrails, and things coming from the Sun.

Thanks, the hormone disruption creates erratic behavior, when I remind myself this I stop socializing, and its because I stop worrying about what people think of my actions, which makes me a powerful force for good, great video.
Thanks for that wisdom.
Great video. One thing worth mentioning (which was not explicitly mentioned) is that all synthetic fragrances and perfumes contain phthalates - which is essentially paraban’s twin sister and is, from my research, one of the absolute worst hormone disrupters out there. So ladies and men, if your product say Paraban free but still has fragrance then put it back. There’s no point in taking out the parabans if you don’t take out the phthalates too.

This is great information, thank you!

Can you tell me if Thrive Market deliver to the Isle of Man please. Many thanks 😊
So no perfume 🫣😩 I’m going to have to do better by dropping the lotions and watching my skincare products but perfume, I’m going to have to keep that. lol We can’t be perfect.

I love how he explains to us WHY these ingredients are bad. Not just this ingredient is bad don’t use this product. I want to be informed so I can know exactly why I shouldn’t use a particular brand. Thankyou!!!
Except is spreads misinformations. Do your research about parabens for example, they are not neeearly as bad as people paint them to be.
He actually gives no information. And does he not know that essential oils are some of the most irritating sources of fragrance on the skin?!

I would also like to point out that most people who believe they have dandruff are most commonly seeing just a dry scalp. That doesn't mean you need an anti-dandruff shampoo, it just means you need something that is going to moisturize/not dry out your scalp
💯. I worked as a barber stylist and people generally never have true dandruff. It’s almost always a dry scalp or a build up of products. The need a good scalp cleanser then go to one of these listed products. Tea tree oil is good
@@barbaramiller349 same 🙋♀️ I can't tell you how many people over the years told me they used head and shoulders because they had dandruff 🤦♀️
I agree. Might want to hydrate your body more and less inflamed foods.
what about with psoriasis ?
That makes sense. Thank you for pointing that out❤️
I use organic olive oil as my daily moisturizer. It doesn't make your skin greasy or oily like you might think.
I do somewhat agree, a lot of not good stuff are put in self care stuff but for example, petrolium based products aren’t always bad. Sodium, explodes on contact with water, Chlorine, corrosive and incredibly toxic. Sodium-Chloride should be really deadly then right? Nope it’s literal salt. Point is don’t just judge something by what it’s made from.
Thank you for the valuable and eye-opening information. I do have Insulin resistance and PCOS andI'm in my 20s. I've always be told and hear "you need to change your diet, eat clean to reverse these conditions," but no one has ever told me to be mindful of the cosmetics and body products you choose. I didn't know many of these products we know, use, and see on a daily basis were so bad for us( especially for women). I will be scanning all the products with your app tomorrow and throwing out the ones that are not Bobby approved ( which is probably about 80 to 90% of them 🤦♀️). I am eating better, started keto a few weeks ago and I'm already feeling better and starting to sleep much better too and longer. Thank you Bobby for educating the lost and blind like me. You're amazing 🤗
Bobby, I had thyroid cancer! No issues with fertility, but I'm always in a hormonal imbalance. My diet is mostly Bobby approved. I use schmidts aluminum free deodorant but I never thought about shampoos! Thank you very much for this video! I'll try.
Thanks bobby I've followed your tactic of "if there's one bad ingredients it must be entirely harmful" so i stopped everything. I stopped eating because eating can cause stomach problems, and I've also stopped breathing because theres nitrogen in the air which can be harmful so, I'll follow your advice and stop breathing completely.
I admit that every time I read the ingredients & nothing I understand, then I buy what ever I feel is good although all these commercial brands are seriously bad.
You don't know how much this really helped me to make a new healthy list !!
The good thing, you mentioned a lot of names as not every brand is in every market.

I've been using all of these products my entire life (I'm almost 50), as have my parents, sisters, brothers, children, aunts, uncles; etc. and NO ONE has ever experienced a skin irritation, infertility, cancer, hormone issues; etc. If these items are that bad, wouldn't one of us have had one of these problems at one point?
Agreed
Absolutely
just good genes
Doesn’t happen to everyone but for some it loads up the lymphatic system and have lots of side effects. Some things have gluten also so some people that are sensitive to gluten don’t know that are using gluten on their body.
If I’m informed and can choose between products with quality ingredients.. then I’ll say no thanks to tar, petroleum, butane and blue dyes, sulfates etc.
Vaseline is "petroleum derived" but its super refined. My grandmother used it and she looked years younger than her actual age lived to be 100+
Cetaphyl was what was recommended to me from my oncology team for use during my radiation treatment for estrogen positive breast cancer!! What are these people thinking!! Thank you bobby. In remission now and changing my whole bath and body supply.

They told me to use Vaseline. They are definitely not looking out for our best interest.

So a team of highly trained specialist are dumber than this guy?? I work in oncology. We recommend Eucerin and Cera Ve all the time. Trust me, it is not dangerous like Bobby says it is. If it were, he should be providing evidence based sources with these bs claims.
I'm in Canada and my Cetaphil doesn't contain parabens
Being allergic to many things I have always ONLY used unscented products. Baby shampoo has been my friend since the 1950s. Baking soda with a drop of hydrogen peroxide makes for an excellent healthy teeth care - good enough for my grandmother so good for me. Use it carefully on skin as well. I sold Avon, Mary Kay, & other lines years ago. One allergic reaction & it had to go. It's always best to stick with clean clear water to wash your face. Additives add to your body's negative issues.
One tip about Schmidt deodorants. Many women of color have complained about rashes and irritation with this product. It also was not effective for many. There are so many ways to avoid needing antiperspirants unless you have a major problem with perspiration.
I've been using Cerave for 6 years and it has helped my skin dramatically. Finding one ingredient that you say is bad and discarding a product is quite ridiculous in some cases. When it comes to ingredients, you have to pay attention to why it's used and how much is used. An ingredient that far down on the list means it's not much utilized in the product.
I agree. Take this guy with a grain of salt. I've done so much research into ingredients and it's great to be informed, but some of this guys fears are a bit overblown. Derms generally really like Cereve, and petroleum based ingredients aren't necessarily dangerous.
There's nothing wrong with Cereve. It was created by a doctor
It us rare to find a Dermatologist that can be trusted. I have had to deal with the for many years for an actual medical condition. I'm not the kind of patient they want. Their whole "business" is directed toward those who pay cash for cosmetic procedures.
Cerave products are generally very good. For a start they are all unscented. I only wish they became more animal friendly...
Regular normal Cerave + regular unscented petroleum jelly are the only two products most people need.
About 18 months ago I stopped using all shampoos because they contain lots of plastic. If you have shiny hair or you see it on celebrities or news people it’s because there’s plastic in the shampoo and conditioner, coding the hair to make it shine. Anything with PEG, polyethylene glycol, polysorbate, or any of those glycol - poly things are crap. I have been using pure Castile soap for hair and body, and it has done wonders for my hair and my skin.
They put that in the 💉 too!
I would be so appreciative if you did a skin care video - face wash, moisturizer, eye cream, make up, etc I’d love to know what the trusted brands are for your wife on all things beauty products if your willing to share. Great video! Thanks Bobby
For makeup I like honeybee gardens. Its online only.
No wonder we have so much cancer. I am currently going through breast radiation and the Drs and nurses have me slathering on these thick lotions and Aquafor. Here I am trying to get rid of bad cells and I am putting poisons right back onto my body!
1/4 c Organic Coconut oil with about 20 drops of frankincense essential oil...I used when I went thru radiation on my neck..still use it 7 years later. Frankincense is full of good stuff!!
Radiation itself is poison. Skip that too. Terrible idea to destroy your immune system to kill off cancer cells. It’s better to take iodine and selenium but they tell you not to.Building your immune system is the best way of fighting it at the root. Frankincense is actually cancer killing.
Do some research on castor oil too. I’ve learned that it’s a miracle oil. You have to choose the right kind as well… lots of great videos on that topic will lead you in the right direction. Blessings and God speed. ❤️🩹

There is an app called Think Dirty that allows you to scan products similar to your food app. I threw away piles of products including hundreds of dollars of Aveda products full of PEG after a rare skin lymphoma diagnosis. Thank you, as always for the education 🙏🏽
you have to stop trusting apps like that. everything can be toxic, even water - look up water toxicity. if you drink 15 cups really quickly, you get really sick; some people have even died from it. those apps dont base their ''toxic'' ratings on studies where people are getting sick from cosmetic products. theyre based on unrealistic conditions like rats eating massive amounts. these studies are purposely trying to find the line where it becomes toxic so scientists can work out how to make sure it is safe. if youre buying from a reputable brand, theyre using the ingredient in a scientifically supported, safe way. those apps are misinterpreting the science. theyre basicaly saying "drinking 15 cups of water is really toxic, so you need to avoid anything with even one drop of water" its the dose that makes the poison
Thanks for the tip:)
My grand parents who lived well into their 90’s used baking soda under their pits and also brushed their teeth with it. Both had all their own teeth when they died. BUT, they also didn’t eat sugary junk. So, there’s that too 🤷🏼♀️😊

I felt nervous and shame when I saw you going towards Head & Shoulders lol. I just started using it a few weeks ago for the medicated ingredient.
I have been using Head & Shoulders for 30 years. I've tried other brands and I don't like how they leave my hair. I don't have any hormone problems or anything... my hair looks very healthy. I'm 57 and have 3 or 4 white hairs only.
Apply white vinegar on your hair for dandruff half hour before you wash it and it will leave your scalp healthy and give your hair a nice shine !!!
I too use H & S, everytime I stray off for another brand or even the crazy priced "clean" "conscious " ones they are garbage and I suffer til I get back to H & S, usually the first wash relieves most of it & the 2nd washing takes care of it completely. A lot of these purified products are a scam. I've used ACV before but it's not for long term use. It's a once a month thing, nothing more, it deep cleans.
What is causing your dandruff? The chemicals initially make it ‘better’ but then you have to keep using it to keep up your hair, which causes more dandruff. It’s a ⭕️ circle. Look for the cause, treat that and your hair will thrive. 😊

But, especially for those who have more sensitive skins and mouths, it can be very irritating. And fun fact, that funny taste after you brush when you take a drink is not mint it is SLS which alters taste buds for a short period of time.
@@kpov2533 thank you for taking the time to explain
I no longer use toothpaste with fluoride ,it is not good for thyroid, now I make my own toothpaste I alternate baking soda or coconut oil.
I’m sorry Bobby, but you claim these healthy products are pretty cheap and not that expensive compared to the common products. But if a single bar of soap costs me $4.29, I will go broke pretty soon. The issue with these products is that I can’t afford them sustainably. A 12 pack of Dove bar soaps cost me $15 while a 12 pack of your recommended bar soaps would cost me almost $52. It’s just not sustainable for the average person, especially if you are in college and on a budget.
Still not seeing how this isn’t possible. 52 dollars is 3-4 hours of work on a minimum wage. 12 bars, That’s enough soap still for at least 2 months. 52 dollars to put good products into your body instead of synthetic BS is definitely better u can’t make excuses
@@lino2185 Like I said, it’s possible but not sustainable. Imagine using half a day’s worth of work to buy ONE product that is good for you, not multiple products. It’s not about excuses. Go on a college campus and ask students if they rather pay $52 for better soap than $12 for average soap. As one myself, we will always opt in for the latter unless you are financially blessed and do not have to worry about any of the economics of college. And this is just for soap… add those $52 to a list of better products that we could be buying and you will be spending hundreds more. You’ve gotta be realistic. I’m all for buying better, healthier, and authentic products. But what’s the point if it’s going to break the bank every time I do so, potentially causing more harm than good.
Think of it as paying a little extra now for your health, so that you don’t have to pay a ton extra in time and bills for a health problem these can cause.
I just read that "TOCOPHERAL" causes CANCER and Dr. Bronner's has it in its products.🤬 Is there anything safe anymore‼️👹☠️
@@ChoppyJamesAh yes just get money! Great solution.
god bless you for all information and hard work so so helpfull my daughter has keratoconus eye disease caused by pollution also goes bollistic before period we cant go out anywhere she is 40 yrs old she suffered for 20 yrs please keep up the good work much love
i too have keratoconus. i never really thought of how i got it other than my eye doctor saying i probably rubbed my eyes too much as a child
I have been using only Desert Essence products for cleansing my hair since 2019 and will NEVER go back to the junk I used before! Desert Essence and Dr. Bronner's products are the only brands that my family uses when it comes to shampoo, body wash, moisturizing, toothpaste, etc.
I definitely recommend these brands to anyone who is wanting to stray away from toxic junk. 💚
Thanks...I will look these up!
you dont color your hair do you?
@@kristenranda3882 I used to bleach and dye my hair on a regular basis before having kids. I went through sooo many boxes of black dye as a teenager as well as beginning my 20's. (Never again will I damage my hair like that! 🤣)
I stopped when I was pregnant with my first child and haven't touched my hair with chemicals since. I may color my hair in the future, but I've made peace with my natural color for now.
Dessert essnce give me an horrible skin reaction
The bestttttt ...I love Desert Essences Fregnance Free it saved my life !
I walk the aisles in amazement. Some of this stuff would clean the boilers in locomotives .You are so cool.
The sad part is that the good products are so expensive. Unaffordable for many.
Necessaire, Naturium, and Iota are really improving body care. Plus, Naturium is at Target at an accessible price. All have fragrance-free options (essential oils can also be irritating to some people). And from what I've learned from dermatologists and cosmetic chemists, CeraVe is a very good brand. Parabens are just a small part of a very good overall formula with ceramides, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin. La Roche Posay is also a pretty good and dependable drug store brand.
CeraVe is garbage. They just spend a ton of money marketing to Dermatologists. The one time I was stupid enough to use a CerVe lotion, my skin broke out!! The Korean brands ( still have to read ingredient lists) are much more better formulated for sensitive skin, use all the active ingredients as CerVe, and don't cause break outs and are often cheaper. CeraVe can rot in the garbage can!
Yes, I use all CeraVe products and they are Dermatologist recommended and better than a lot of brands. Methylparaben is in CeraVe products as a preservative needed to keep bacteria from growing in the products. It's definitely less harmful than people think. Dr. Dray on RUclips has a video from 2018 on Parebens in cosmetics and she is a Board Certified Dermatologist so she has more knowledge on chemicals in cosmetic products.
CeraVe is great
I always go shopping with Bobby!!! I don't buy anything anymore if it's not Bobby approved. Luv his videos and the App. Forever Grateful!!!
I love using pure coconut oil or castor oil instead of lotion, very clean and bang for your buck!
@time time I put it on night after showering so I don’t really mind if my pajamas get some oil on them. But that is good to note for those that do!
Almond oil is good too
Castor oil stinKs.
I just started watching you Bobby thanks to Dr. Burg. I'm getting a great education and am on my way to making much better choices as well as my wife. This is great information and I'm spreading the word!!!!
It be so cool if you wrote a family friendly personal care product book!!!! I'd buy it in a second for all my family and friends. I encourage you to do that some day soon as we want the best for all who buy everyday products. We need to use better quality products...be great to know what's out there. Thank you1
I wouldn’t be surprised if Bobby would come up with his own line of soap/shampoo/toothpaste/deodorant in the future 😅
Yes plz!! I try following what he talks about with everything in our lives, I get overwhelmed!!
YES PLEASE!!! 🎉🎉🎉
there are so really good ones out there, I will stick to supplements and food for now ;) Thanks!
I hope so 👍
That’s what it is all about.
I have looked at this since 2018 when I read up about a girl who got sick and she had tests to determine what's wrong with her. Her dermatologists asked her about her products and after that she put a long list of products that are bad for you.Since then I even make my own body butter. Most shampoos have edta, sls, petroleum, glycerine
Homemade body butter-this sounds awesome!! Do you have a simple recipe you could share or a link to it? 👏
Is glycerine bad to use?
Is glycerin bad too?
@@lifeisdynamic2464 absolutely not. It's made from either vegetable oils or animal fat depending if you're vegan or not, it's odorless, non-toxic and completely safe to use on your hair and skin. You can even make your own
Nothing wrong with glycerine.
I tried Lume deodorant and it gave me a burn under each armpit - went to a dermatologist and she said she had several people come in with skin reactions to LUME !!!!!
I make most of my own products using essential oils, coconut oil, shea butters, mango butters, vitamin e oil, argon oil, Castile soap etc... it's so much healthier and feel so nice on the skin.
Maybe for you. Most essential oils are irritants for someone with sensitive skin. Castile soap leaves a soap film and makes me itch like crazy.
Thank you Bobby! Your teaching on personal care products are so so valuable. Thank you
I love how many comments youre getting! It means you're popular!❤ I ve been watching your channel for years! Keep them coming! I like getting informed and ideas.
Petroleum jelly is very good at maintaining the skin hydrated longer and works also for helping in case of small wounds. And parabens are the safest artificial preservatives.
For Anti perspirants - most have Aluminum (toxic like LEAD) , anything you put on your pits is right next to your breast (men and women) ... if you are clogging yout pits with heavy metals that are toxic, right next to your breast tissue !!! Crystal is a mineral salt and it antibacterial so it kills the smellies without clogging your pores (which can cause build up of toxins your body is trying to sweat out.
For soap, most all have SLS (sodium laurel sulphate) look for saponified oils ( castille soap , Bonners) so much better than regular soap and not as drying on your skin.
jesus no that aluminium in deodorants scare was debunked many years ago. Try to keep up. You know your body is full of aluminium, especially your blood, and you'd be dead without it?
Lies
@@g3t4c5allycia_explain how it’s a lie so I know what to do
We need a GRWM video from you - your skincare routine and a day in your life , what u use and do in a day 😊
The problem with natural deodorants is that they suck! Use them if you want to stink in about 3 hours.
True I tried a few ending up going back to Mitcham unscented . Done of the natural ones worked
Gotta detox and eat cleaner.
Antibacterial wipes work.
I have the problem that if it has baking soda in it my pits are done👎🏽
I use it and have no problems
I use my Yuka app when I go shopping for food, vitamins, body care items, makeup etc. and don’t buy anything unless it comes up as safe.
Cetaphil has another lotion that does not have those harmful ingredients. It looks similar to the bottle you showed in this vid. It's their light weight sensitive skin formula. Been using it for years and it helped my skin improve.
Cetaphil ruined my skin. I can’t use it.
The facial moisturizer has benzene and proplyne glycol in the sensitive formula. Yikes!
@@antihipsterboho Have you found a better lotion alternative for sensitive skin?
@@TheABEliacerave is good
I haven't used deodorant for years, I just shower any time I get sweaty. I'll never forget looking at the label and thinking "rubbing titanium into my skin can't be good".😳
I love *Secret, powder scent. Smells divine. Works
How do you manage not sweating buckets? I can't skip my antiperspirant because I will sweat a lot even if nobody around me does.😢
@@Brandon-uy1uv I live in North Carolina so it's hot, I just take as many as 5 showers per day. Just a quick, cool rinse whenever necessary, it's more refreshing. There's almost always air conditioning, and nothing beats a fresh set of clothes after a cool shower. Sounds like a lot but it's actually everyone else who's sweating! 😉
Slice lemons and rub under your dry under arms after a week if you miss a day no problem no odor
@@faithsfarmlife1424 great tip, ty!
I used to have bad dandruff. It was sodium Laurel sulfates in my shampoo and conditioners. I found yes to carrots tea tree and sage shampoo and conditioner and no more head and shoulders needed.
I tried this Thrive thing you reccommend and they are PRICEY! I have found pretty good success on Amazon with no SLS in shampoo and Native for my deodorant. Much cheaper and you get it in bulk.
I’ve worked in skincare & cosmetics for over a decade & I try soooo hard to teach people all this information 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Keep teaching and spreading a good word. We need to stop giving this trash companies our money. They don’t care about us.

@@karine8738 great question 🙋♀️ for dry damage curly hair, thanks 🙏
It’s about time someone addressed this !!!! We need to just get rid of these horrendous products intent on harming us !!!
- Deodorant: don't use anything. Just shower or wipe with water.
- Soap: use solid Marseille (Castille) soap or Avene
- Toothpaste: use Kingfisher
Don't be a Nazi. You don't just destroy and cancel stuff you don't like. Most people don't care and are happy to risk it.
@@helenarichard no USE DEODORANT. For the love of god USE DEODORANT. Especially if you’re in school. I have in kid in my class who doesnt use deodorant. Feels like im a jew in the 1940s. Its horrible
@@cincin4515 Yeah some people just love having cancer and other diseases.
❤Old days in india people used-
Body wash- Chickpea flour and water (also acts as an exfoliate)
Body pack- multani mitti
Hair color- henna mixed with (Beetroot juice, tea, lemon and yogurt)
Shampoo- shikakai powder
Conditioner- amla and reetha powders
Body and face lotion- coconut oil❤
But they also bathed in the same river at which they cremate and spread their dead. Religious tradition is going to happen. But the act of also bathing there... Not a great role model of hygeine. Js
@@gothic7821 lol looks like you are a very negative person in general cuz normally positive people don't bring up the negatives just because someone mentioned some positives about something.
@@varsharao86 No, it wasn't "just because someone mentioned the positives." It's because it's *UNHYGIENIC* and personally, I'd rather not wash with things which promote bacterial growth, promote musky body odors, or bathe in city river water known to kill fish and spread of dysentery.
Awapuhi is a more effective shampoo alternate, and it doesn't smell like someone bathed in hummus and dahl. But yeah, if you like those smells on your body, go for it. You do you, boo.
Also, coconut oil, is moderately comedogenic. So on the face, expect the possibility of increased blackheads and acne of varying degrees. Following with witch hazel and rose water will help prevent that a bit.
@@gothic7821 ok I don't know about that. Her whole life my grandmother used coconut oil on her face till she was 95 and never did I see one acne on her face the entire time I've been alive. And not only did she put it on her face. She also applied it over her body. Esplly during winters. And I also know many others who use coconut oil.
I worked in the automotive industry for part of my younger adult life... and when I got older, I developed gut issues, and had to use Miralax before colonoscopies... upon reading the ingredients, it occurred to me that the ingredients were very similar sounding to antifreeze!!! 😮
Absolutely correct. 😢 next colonoscopy use a different prep. They have one with just magnesium citrate - cherry flavor I believe. Safe ! Miralax NO! :)
I'm on Team Bar Soap - no plastic and less liquid weight. Every little bit helps!🐬
Same here 🙌 I switched last year permanently. Dr. Bronner Bar Soap for the win.
@@ricklopez8431 That's great! When you're ready, I suggest exploring other natural soaps, too! But I like Dr. Bronner's bar soap, as well. 😊
The bar soaps don't contain sodium benzoate either, which with Covid cleaning I found myself to be allergic to. It also cuts down on plastic, and other undesirable ingredients.
@@klharris391 maybe try another version or another brand
@@ricklopez8431 i tried it and it didn't work with my skin, sugar and spice company has some nice soaps, hand made too.
Bobby, I have scalp psoriasis and use Derma-E for dry scalp and flakes. They sell it at Ulta. Pretty clean ingredients and great for the scalp. ❤
This explains all my issues! For years I've suffered from constant skin and hair issues. I grew up using most of those brands. I no longer buy them. I've switched to Japanese brands for my hair and only use scented-free products for my skin. Major improvement. It also made me realize that I wasted money on a Dermatologist.
I had an awful, itchy rash on my arms. A dermatologist just gave me more ( expensive ) toxic goo . I figured out it was the chemicals, switched to pure soap and it's been gone for decades.
Please share what you use. It sounds like a good idea.
Thank you for all you do Bobby. I admite your courage and determination to inform the public
Ok, this is very strange. We have CeraVe in Europe and ingredients are very different. Non of their product contains bad stuff Bobby mentioned.
It's wise to pay attention to Europe's bans as they may have banned something decades ago, meanwhile here in the US it's still included. Big pharma, food and government here all benefit while we get sick, require medication and hospitalization. $$$
I've heard Europeans say they can taste the chemicals in our food.
Full of chemicals read & understand the meaning of words
It’s never too late to get educated and change it up!
Thank you so much Bobby. I have been searching for safer products as I was just diagnosed with advanced Nash last year. I’m fighting not progress for my 2 autistic daughters. Lost 75 pounds this past year and you’ve helped me so much &. this video was like you read my mind.

I use pure olive oil soap traditionally made in Greece in small family companies, as well these from Aleppo and Nabblus.
Its literally among the most pure, cleanest products you can use on your skin and on your hair . No allergies no skin irritations not hormones no plastic . Also suitable for cleaning sensitive clothing and they are much much cheaper.
Appreciate the time and dedication you have to teaching us all of this. Im definitely making some swaps. As someone whose been in Mammography and studying about breast cancer alone, endocrine disruptors definitely play a role.
Endocrine disruptors are in damn near everything, sadly. This is probably why we're seeing more and more cases of breast cancer .. well cancer in general, actually.
Most definitely and that's also why so many people are having trouble conceiving. Most women are literally dousing themselves in these chemicals from fingernail polish to lipstick and other types of makeup and hair dye. Add on lotions & body wash it goes on and on.
When I see little girls with nail polish and makeup on, I'm thinking they're already being exposed to these chemicals at 2. What's going to happen to them when they're in their mid-20s early thirties and want to have children?
What really makes my blood boil is that the FDA has zero authority over this. When they should be policing what's in these products!!!
In Europe and other countries, this is not allowed to occur.
Unfortunately in America where lobbyist are King. We get treated like trash. The FDA isn't looking out for your best welfare.
Beauty product safety should be the top priority but it seems it's their last priority..
Please dear avoid mammogram, go for ultrasound. Avoid X-ray. My oncologist always asks me to avoid X-ray because gynecologists always ask for mammogram.
What you buy is what you get . Glad I never used deodorant not my genes no hair no smell . I don’t buy cheap I’m 75 now fully retired. I used all the best one my hair almost got lots of compliments. Especially hair oil the most expensive and yes ask me what shampoo or what I used to my hair . You paid what you got .

Today, I just bought Dial Spring Water body wash and I was actually looking for something that's not loaded with artificial stuff and like Bobby stated with other products, it's loaded with Sodium Laureth Sulfate and about 4 PEGS ingredients. I'm returning it back to Walmart. I've been using Suave body wash and I know that's no better. I usually research online ingredients, but I was out of body wash and couldn't' really read the ingredients on the Dial product. I just order from Urban Hydration, black owned personal care business that have nothing but all natural ingredients . I ordered a face wash, face cream and spot treatment cream, all based on Aloe Vera.
Acure is one of my favorite brands. I find it at a low price at TJ Maxx or Marshall's. But finding their products is hit or miss and you might not always find exactly what you are looking for but it worth a shot if your looking to save a little money.
Acure is sold at Whole Foods
I tried the Acure shampoo and conditioner and I love it. I’ve tried pretty much everything I could find on the market and finally this works for me. Everything else causes my head to itch but not this. Thank you.
I lotion with cold pressed virgin or extra virgin organic coconut oil. My mom used to make it in PR when I was little. She used to put it on our body, hair and gave us a spoon full every day. I also like to use organic shea butter. Love the channel and videos.
Oils are not moisturizing.
Ok but let's not forget that a sit-in/leave-in product is different than one you wash away quickly. Having bad ingredients in a shampoo like S.L.S and PEG-40 is less bad than in a conditioner or a mask, which sink deeper into your skin. Also, it depends how often you use it. Currently, my facial wash has S.L.S, PEG, Propylene Glycol... however I use it like twice a week. Also, it's hard to find the 'perfect' product. You find something without S.L.S and PEG but it has fragrance, or doesn;t have fragrance but has dimethicone.
You wash your face twice a week??? 🫥
SLS is just horrible for hair because it strips your hair of all the natural oils. It's SO drying
Modern marketing has convinced many consumers that they need products when truthfully some of them could most likely be eliminated and you would be healthier for it.
Dermatologists would have a field day with you and your assessments. Those are the very products and brands they promote weekly and no doubt they would ferociously defend them. Especially Dr. Dray.
The problem with dermatologists is just like doctors, they get kickbacks on all recommendations. I don't trust any of them.
@wandahumphrey9378 I agree with you totally. I second Bobby and his views. Just wanted to say that I think most dermatologists would take an issue with his views, especially one in particular who is very vocal about things she is against. When people speak against what she is promoting, she retaliates.
Have a great night, Wanda.
Dermatologists recommend slathering insanely toxic sun block all over yourself before going out and opening your pores in the sunlight. That alone should let you know what kind of "doctors" they are and how much they really care about you.
@@JoaninFlorida This is more because the FDA hasn't approved a new sunscreen ingredient in over 25 years. Compared to Europe and South Korea, both use newer and better ingredients, but there is nothing else Dermatologists in the US can do.
@@dwilliu How about not recommending people use it? Geesh.
That OGX brand has a pending lawsuit about their ingredients turning into formaldehyde and causing hair loss in people. I used it for years and now have very thin hair!
Wow, I used to use that back in the day. Crazy!
Thank you so much for writing this! I literally just bought this shampoo the other day. I haven’t tried it yet so I’m going to return it. It looks pretty decent when looking at it in the store and the “ vitamins” for hair growth.
Well now I know why my hair is falling out
Not all of their products contain the ingredients that cause the hair loss. There is a list on line. I love the Hugs and Kisses one
Take Biotin for thinnng hair
I like the information that Bobby Parish has given. Thank you Bobby Parrish.
Lavender oil and tea tree oil are also hormone disrupters. If anyone really wants to be free from “bad” ingredients, don’t put anything on your body.
Well unfortunately that won’t happen because some people literally need shampoo for example or need facial stuff for acne or u know what ever the case my be but doing nothing will never work.
I kind of agree. We really are putting too much shit on our bodies and in our bodies every day and we really don't need 99% of it. Yes, we need shampoo, and we need to keep our bodies clean but all of this crap they're selling is ridiculous. We just don't NEED it, but for some reason we WANT it. We're all brain washed; We're easily manipulated, and we're lazy.
@@crazyassboybumorganic castille soap (olive oil, soda and water ) is a good choice
Just bought a trial size of Garnier sleek & shine shampoo to try.

Can't afford to throw out what I have but here to learn what are the safest products. I've relied on what is stated on the front of products to try them.

I make my own deodorant. It’s baking soda, arrowroot powder, coconut oil and a few drops of essential oils. I like lavender and patchouli mixed. Works great. And for my husband, it doesn’t make his glands flare up. He’s pretty much allergic to all store deodorants
I do too! Works great! I also make my own soap with just 3 ingredients. Water, organic coconut oil and NaOH.
I do it also but use baking soda and cornstarch mix I apply after applying coconut oil on my pits. I never had a deodorant work this well. I used to use Mitchell's and it was the best for me but all of them gradually stop working after a while.
@@franwebb7756
Both my husband and I love the natural stuff and it works better than the store bought brands that have so many chemicals in them. And of course it’s cheaper to make our own. It’s a win win win 👍🏻😊
Beware of store bought essential oil, especially from China.
Thank you for continuing to bring attention to this. The more we all speak out the more it gets serious attention. 🙂 Have you done a video about cornstarch/malodextrin in foods causing allergies?
Several of the products you speak of are things that have been specifically recommended by my Drs, for skin conditions that I have, including my dermatologist, primary care and my vascular surgeon. I have lymphedema on my legs which causes the skin to be extremely dry, and prone to cellulitis so just any lotion for the dryness can’t be used because it causes infections. Both my Dr and the lymphedema clinic I go to prefers Eucerin, CeraVe, or Amlactin. I use Lume products where I can and my main reason for using them was the lack of Aluminum which you had nothing to say anything about. I’m 72 and I’ve heard of connections between aluminum and dementia since I was in my 30s. Why wasn’t aluminum in products an issue that you’ve spoken about ?
He was working in the Fiance field before this, so I take his info with a grain of salt.
Yea always DYOR and cross reference. Anything short or absolute medical conditions that require certain specific things that work to cure the immediate condition I just try to find the least number of ingredients and the most natural possible and stick with that.
stick YOUR doctor's advice.
Listen to your doctor. He is fear monger if about parabens, petroleum, tar, mineral oil etc. those have been recommended by dermatologists for years and are science backed for many skin conditions.
The fragrance, dyes/colors, and penetration enhancing ingredients should be avoided when possible. Natural fragrance is just as bad as synthetic, especially because it is variable.
@@Hyper_Driven This 100%. I use plant based/natural stuff as much as I can. A person with ezcema and sensitive skin might be prescribed any variety of these things. A good natural soap company that many people might not know about is Buff City Soap.
