Possible Link Between Black Hair Care And Cancer? | Zerlina.

♪ > > >, CONCERNING RESULTS ARE BEING REPORTED FROM A NEW STUDY SHOWING THAT CHEMICALS FOUND IN BLACK HAIR CARE AND COSMETIC PRODUCTS HAVE A GREATER IMPACT ON BLACK WOMEN'S RISK OF BREAST CANCER. If CHEMICALS CALLED PAR BENS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RISKS IN BLACK WIP, BUT THE SAME RESULTS WERE N'T SEEN IN WHITE WOMEN., IT ALSO PROMOTED THE SPREAD OF BREAST CANCER CELLS WITH BLACK PATIENTS.. Joining ME NOW IS DR.. Emily HILLTON. PAR BENS ARE NOT SOMETHING. I WAS COMPLETELY UNFAMILIAR WITH BEFORE THIS STUDY, BECAUSE OFTEN, IF YOU'RE ON THE SEPHORA WEBSITE, IT WILL NOTE THERE ARE PAR BENS IN THIS. HELP US UNDERSTAND THE DIRECT LINK BETWEEN CHEMICALS LIKE THEM AND BREAST CANCER. AND BREAST CANCER.. What DOES THE DATA SHOW US? > >, THE DATA SHOWS IT NOT ONLY HELPS PROMOTE THE CELLS CHANGING TO BE CANCEROUS, BUT ALSO THE PROGRESSION OF IT SPREADING AND WILL BEING MORE MALIGNANT.. There ARE MANY CHEMICALS IN OUR COSMETICS AND FOOD AND AIR AND WATER THAT ARE CONTRIBUTING TO INCREASING RISE IN CANCER. Rates. INCREASING RISE IN CANCER, RATES., AFRICAN AMERICANS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, UNFORTUNATELY -- >, > FOOD AND COSMETICS THAT CAN CAUSE CANCER. But WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT HERE? How DO WE CHECK THE PRODUCTS BEFORE WE PURCHASE THEM TO KNOW WHAT CHEMICALS WE SHOULD AVOID? What INGREDIENTS SHOULD WE BE LOOKING FOR > >? Basically, YOU CAN NOT NAME AN INGREDIENT. Look IT UP TO SEE WHAT IT IS.. There ARE LITERALLY TONS OF APPS. You CAN SCAN THE BAR CODE TO TELL YOU WHETHER OR NOT THIS CHEMICALS THAT MAKE UP THIS PRODUCT HAVE BEEN DEEMED SAFE AND ARE MORE RISKY FOR YOU.. It NEEDS TO BE PUSHED NOT ONLY ON THE CONSUMER, BUT WE NEED TO HAVE POLICIES IN PLACE TO SAY THAT THESE THINGS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED IN PRODUCTS FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION AND UTILIZATION.. We KNOW IF YOU LOOK AT THE FOOD PRODUCTS. There ARE CERTAIN PRODUCTS LITERALLY ILLEGAL TO SELL IN OTHER COUNTRIES OR NATIONS.. Why IS THAT ALLOWED HERE? How HAS CAPITALISM ACTUALLY TAKEN PRECEDENT OVER THAT.? Again, THERE ARE MANY APPS YOU CAN GO TO LOOKING AT THE CHEMICALS LISTED IN YOUR FOOD AND COSMETIC PRODUCTS. The SEE DOES THIS INCREASE OUR RISK AND PARTICULARLY IF YOU ARE ALREADY HIGH RISK, BECAUSE OF EITHER YOUR FAMILY HISTORY OR BECAUSE OF DEMOGRAPHIC, ISSUES., > >. I WANT TO TURN TO THE TOPIC OF COVID.. On TUESDAY, PRESIDENT BIDEN ANNOUNCED VACCINES ARE NOW AVAILABLE FOR KIDS UNDER THE AGE OF 5.. What DO YOU WANT TO TELL PARENTS OUT THERE WHO MAY BE HESITANT, BECAUSE I'M GOING TO ACKNOWLEDGE SOME FOLKS MAY HAVE SOME QUESTIONS WHEN IT COMES TO A CHILD UNDER THE AGE OF 5., SPEAK TO THOSE PARENTS AT HOME.? What DO YOU WANT TO TELL THEM ABOUT? Vaccinating THEIR CHILDREN UNDER 5 AND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS > > RIGHT. FOR ONE I WOULD HOPE THEY SEE IT DID TAKE A LONG TIME BEFORE THIS WAS ROLLED OUT, BECAUSE SAFETY HAD TO BE VERIFIED. OFTEN TIMES IT WAS STATED EARLY ON THAT KIDS ARE PROTECTED.. What WE KNOW IS SIX TIMES OF KIDS DIED FROM COVID THAT THE FLU. WE HAVE 600 CHILDREN NO LONGER WITH US FROM 2021 BECAUSE OF COVID-19. AND THERE'S NOW A METHOD YOU CAN USE TO HELP YOUR CHILD FROM BEING HOSPITALIZED AND KEEP THEM ALIVE TO SEE. Next YEAR., WHAT WE KNOW IS WE'RE GETTING MORE AND MORE VARIANTS THAT WE NOW HAVE BA 4 AND 5 COMING OUT OF SOUTH AFRICA.. How DO WE STAY AHEAD OF THE GAME? There'S A SAYING. If YOU STAY READY, YOU DO N'T HAVE TO GET READY.. Keep YOUR KIDS VACCINATED, MAKE SURE THEY'RE WEARING THE MASK AND PRACTICE THE SAME THINGS. We HAVE BEEN DOING THE PAST TWO AND A HALF YEARS. > >. Can YOU ALSO TALK ABOUT THE LONG-TERM SIDE EFFECTS ON CHILDREN AS OPPOSED TO LONG-TERM SIDE EFFECTS OF THE VACCINE? > >: IT'S ONE THING THAT THE ANTIVAX MOVEMENT HAS STOKED. Those FEARS. COVID-19 IS LINKED TO A NUMBER OF DISEASE PROCESSES. We CAN ALREADY TRACE.. They SAY YOU CA N'T, TELL THE LONG-TERM CONSEQUENCES OF THE VACCINE.. Yes, WE CAN.. I GOT MY VACCINE BACK IN DECEMBER OF 2020.. I WAS THE FIRST PERSON AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA.. We HAVE NOW BEEN ABLE TO TRACK PERSONS LIKE ME TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENED AND IF ANYTHING'S CHANGED., WE ARE TRACKING PEOPLE WHO HAVE COVID-19 CHILDREN AND ADULTS ALIKE AND FWHUN. Every FIVE PERSONS NOW HAVE LINGERING DISABILITY, WHERE THEIR ORGANS, HEART BRAIN, IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONING. The SAME WAY IT WAS BEFORE THEY GOT COVID-19. WHEN YOU TAKE THE DEVELOPING CHILD AND STRITS OUT AND PUT IT ON THAT TREADMILL AND SAY I WANT TO YOU SPRINT WHAT DOES THAT DO FOR THE LONGEVITY OF THEIR LIFE AND WHETHER THEY WILL LIVE A FULL LIFE? But THE QUALITY OF THEIR LIFE., WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES ASSOCIATED WITH THAT INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE? You DO NOT WANT YOUR CHILD TO GET INFECTED WITH A VIRUS WHEN WE KNOW THE IMPLICATIONS OF OTHER VIRAL ISSUES THAT WE HAVE TO FACE LIKE -- AND I'LL GIVE THEM AN EXAMPLE. Hepatitis B, WE KNEW THAT THROUGH THE 1970s AND NOW PEOPLE HAVE TO HAVE LIVER TRANSPLANTS BECAUSE THEY HAVE LIVER CANCERS RELATED TO THAT INFECTION. Back THEN. WE DO N'T WANT TO SEE THAT., WE DO N'T HAVE TO RISK IT BECAUSE WE HAVE A VACCINE. > >. It'S SO IMPORTANT. THIS INFORMATION - I AM ALMOST APPLAUDING OVER HERE.. Thank YOU. So MUCH FOR HELPING US UNDERSTAND THIS.. I HOPE THAT WAS HELPFUL FOR THE PARENTS AT HOME. Thinking THROUGH
