What is Diethal sulphate

People have asked why Wendy and Joseph have devoted some time to creating pure botanical products. Part of the answer can be found by listening to the news or reading the paper as more and more chemicals that have been called safe for the past 40 years have been discovered to cause cancer. The list of these chemicals are being revealed to the people in power and the Canadian Government has created a list of chemicals to ban. Diethal sulphate can be found in shampoos, nail polish remover, fabric softeners, and of course fragrances. There is a good chance that when you read fragrance on any product, it contains diethal sulfate. Originally it was created as a chemical warfare agent. Below is a paragraph from the Environment Canada Website page. Feel free to research this and other chemical information yourself.

A notice summarizing the scientific considerations of the draft screening assessment report was published for diethyl sulfate by Environment Canada and Health Canada in the Canada Gazette, Part I, on January 24, 2009, under subsection 77(1) of CEPA 1999. The draft screening assessment report proposes that, based on the carcinogenic potential of diethyl sulfate for which there may be a probability of harm at any level of exposure, it is concluded that diethyl sulfate is a substance that is entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that constitute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health.
