Is scalp detoxification useful?

Scalp detoxification is effective because the scalp contains many pores. Pores are one of the ways we secrete toxic substances. We can learn about scalp detoxification methods. For scalp skin, you can massage the scalp and use shampoo, mainly to clean the secretions in the scalp, but be careful to avoid irritating the scalp to avoid causing allergic reactions. For specific methods, please refer to the following.

Harmful substances irritate the skin and mucous membranes, causing allergic reactions, liver damage, and lead to diseases such as uterine fibroids and endometriosis. Avoid harmful substances by paying attention to the ingredients in shampoo and use scalp detoxification massage for home care to prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the body!

The scalp has the highest percutaneous absorption rate, and it only takes 40 minutes for harmful substances to reach the uterus

The scalp is the part of the body that absorbs chemicals most easily, except for the oral mucosa (which has no stratum corneum and has an absorption rate 13 times that of the skin). In aromatherapy, pure natural essential oil is applied to the top of the head at the end, because the scalp is the part of the human body with the highest transdermal absorption rate.

Although it is generally believed that shampoo only stays on the head for a short time and only has a cleaning effect, according to research from a university hospital, it only takes 40 minutes for chemicals to be absorbed from the scalp to reach the uterus. Even a short period of time in the shower may absorb harmful substances.

The rate of skin decomposition of toxins is only 10%, which accumulates in the body and causes uterine fibroids

If the chemical substances are ingested through food, since they are absorbed through the mouth, the liver will break them down and detoxify them. However, toxins absorbed through the skin will not go through the digestive and decomposition organs, but will just be stored in the subcutaneous fat and circulate through the blood to the uterus and brain.

The excretion rate of chemical substances absorbed from the skin is only about 10% even after ten days. Chemical substances absorbed from daily necessities such as shampoo and cosmetics, which are accumulated in the body for a long time, can cause atopic dermatitis, as well as uterine fibroids and endometriosis, which have increased significantly among young women in recent years.

Pay attention to shampoo ingredients

Surfactant alkyl sulfate (SLS): It has good foaming power and excellent cleansing ability, but it may disrupt the skin's oil balance and the skin barrier layer, penetrate the dermis into the blood, and is toxic to the skin, eyes and mucous membranes.

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA): Commonly used as a preservative in cosmetics and food, it is destructive to human health and the natural environment. It can damage the ozone layer, irritate the skin and mucous membranes, cause allergic reactions, and cause liver damage.
