Studies have implicated pthalates as an endocrine disruptor, or chemical that mimics the body's natural hormones, and leads to disruptive effects ranging from cancers to birth defects.
Despite these studies the federal government does not limit their use of pthalates, even though California and some European countries will have restricted their use beginning in 2009. And further, the FDA does not require companies to test thier products for safety; this includes products we use on our babies and children! Often times we blindly trust that if the product is made for children it must be safe.
We must protect our children when we can and replace these toxic products with products that are chemical free. Educate yourself so that you can make wise choices. The Enviornmental Working Group set up a database with vital information on the contents of personal care products. You can check it out here
