Comments on: All That Glitters Is Not Organic by Chef Helen, “Talk to me!” http://www.ctngreen.com/wellness/2008/07/all-that-glitters-is-not-organic-by-chef-helen-talk-to-me/ for the health and wellbeing of today's ec-conscious Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:10:49 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Joseph Jackowitz http://www.ctngreen.com/wellness/2008/07/all-that-glitters-is-not-organic-by-chef-helen-talk-to-me/#comment-24 Joseph Jackowitz Tue, 02 Sep 2008 18:32:53 +0000 http://www.ctngreen.com/wellness/?p=13#comment-24 This is a fantastic commentary not only on the English language, but on its misuse. It is amazing how the bandwagon of language has "stretched" the word natural to include all that is good. We oftentimes mention to our customers that many catastrophic, life-threatening, and fatal events are "natural". We, therefore, avoid the use of that word altogether in our company and in the sale of our cosmetic products. We also have tired so much of the word "organic" in the sense that it too is overused and overworked. Your comment regard label reading and research is the most essential. So many cosmetic companies have fancy labels touting their wholesomeness until the label is turned over. Then, the truth is revealed when individual ingredients are subjected to the scrutiny of a microscope. Items such as lead, mercury, arsenic, cyanide, formaldehyde, etc., are then revealed. Again, although those are naturally occurring on our planet, they are not elements which carry with them benefits for the human being. Excellent article. Thank you from Coastal Classic Creations.
