See comment below about expensive medical care not necessarily being any good. This story is a repeat of what my wife and I went through regarding years of severe joint pain she suffered. The orthodox medical industry, totally focused on selling patients new products, totally missed that the solution was simply to take something away; in this case formaldehyde. My wife suffered through 8 years of crippling pain before we ourselves figured out the cause using internet resources (many of them publicly decried as "dangerous" by that same medical establishment that utterly failed to detect the problem in the first place).

Poison kiss: lead alert
The blood-red Dior lipstick, sold at beauty counters across Australia, was among dozens of lipsticks found to contain lead, after US lobby group Campaign for Safe Cosmetics commissioned an independent laboratory to test lead levels in 33 brand-name lipsticks. The results, made public in a report last October, revealed 61percent of the lipsticks tested had detectable lead levels. One-third of the lipsticks exceeded the US Food and Drug Administration's accepted level of lead (0.1 parts per million) for products that are ingested. The Dior lipstick was found to contain 0.21ppm of lead.

Chemicals in beauty products have never been intelligently regulated, because they were alleged by the industry lobbyists as being used solely on the exterior of the body.
However, here's an experiment: rub garlic on your foot, and wait to see how long before you can actually taste it.
If you use cosmetics at all, please do your best to know what's in them, because what you don't know can really make you ill if you have any chemical sensitivity whatsoever.
We went through a really traumatic half-decade when my wife had horrendous joint pain that the doctors couldn't diagnose.
Ultimately, through a lot of research on the web, we found out that she is highly allergic to what are called "formaldehyde precursors", which are present in many scented soaps and detergents, and definitely in cosmetics.
We cleaned out the bathroom and kitchen cabinets of any products using these chemicals.
Within 24 hours, she was able to walk without pain, as miraculous as that sounds.
Unfortunately, we have yet to find a medically peer-reviewed study of the damage these chemicals can cause. That, however, would be a boon to both patients and their doctors.

Fresh scent may hide toxic secret
The scented fabric sheet makes your shirts and socks smell flowery fresh and clean. That plug-in air freshener fills your home with inviting fragrances of apple and cinnamon or a country garden. But those common household items are potentially exposing your family and friends to dangerous chemicals, a University of Washington study has found.

The problem is simple. These chemicals are legally considered "external" even though you breath them into your lungs, sinuses and potentially absorb them through your skin. Because they are legally "external" companies are free from legal requirements to list all ingredients or to test the chemicals for toxicity. There are some 400 different artificial scent chemicals, of which less than 50 have actually been tested for toxic effects on humans.

Aren't you against the Codex describing every chemical compound from vitamins to elements being listed as a poison if high enough doses are bad for you?
"poison" is an misused label. Overdosing on anything is poisonous.
The liquer I drink at parties is far more a poison than Aspartame but screw you if you think it should be banned.
Water overdosing recently caused brain damage in england on a detox diet. (Search BBC)
Aspartame is not unusually dangerous. Consume similar levels of other common food items and see how your health fares.

Health Hazards in Household Cleaners Exposed
Recent research suggests that exposure to cleaning products or air fresheners that contain a certain volatile organic compound (VOC) called 1,4 dicholorobenzene (1,4 DCB), can reduce lung function by 4 percent. Another study found that the use of spray household cleaners could increase the risk of developing asthma by nearly 50 percent.
