Re: My deodorant has freaking POISON in it!? - Racer X - 04-16-2007 It doesn't have to make sense. Your surviving family members just need a good lawyer. Victim's lack of common sense is no defense. Re: My deodorant has freaking POISON in it!? - M A V I C - 04-16-2007 [quote Lew Zealand]Someone should have told the woman who drank 2 gallons of water for that radio stunt that it's toxic in those quantities. Eh, pure water is not toxic. Yes, you can die from having too much and not balancing out your electrolytes, but that doesn't mean it's toxic. tox·ic [tok-sik] –adjective 1. of, pertaining to, affected with, or caused by a toxin or poison: a toxic condition. 2. acting as or having the effect of a poison; poisonous: a toxic drug. –noun 3. a toxic chemical or other substance.

Sorry if your topic got watered down ![]() Re: My deodorant has freaking POISON in it!? - Racer X - 04-16-2007 I would have checked back earlier but I was swamped....just flooded with requests. Re: My deodorant has freaking POISON in it!? - incognegro - 04-16-2007 the problem with scientific studies is that they need to be funded by someone. more often than not, there are interested (biased) companies footing the bill, so an untainted study can be hard to carry on. example: the tobacco lobby, and big Pharma. don't get me started on the FDA, either. they want to classify FRUIT JUICE as a DRUG now... yeah, you haven't seen this on the news because they want to SLIP IT UNDER THE RADAR! More info: http://www.fda.gov/cber/gdlns/altmed.htm The easy-to-understand breakdown: http://www.newstarget.com/z021789.html Health freedom action alert: FDA attempting to regulate supplements, herbs and juices as "drugs" Re: My deodorant has freaking POISON in it!? - OWC Jamie - 04-16-2007 It's water intoxication. -and it can kill you. http://www.hhp.ufl.edu/faculty/pbird/keepingfit/ARTICLE/toomuchwater.htm Pets will often lick you for the salt on your skin.

More like they want to regulate the practice of holistic/alternative practices where such things are proscribed as supposedly valid alternatives to real medicine. 'Bout friggin' time, I say.

From my link: Handing a cup of raw vegetable juice to someone and telling them it's good for the detoxification of their liver will get you arrested for practicing medicine without a license and promoting an "unapproved drug." I think more people have been killed by FDA-approved drugs in the last 10 years than those who use herbs or juice to treat themselves. Think about it. Re: My deodorant has freaking POISON in it!? - Lew Zealand - 04-16-2007 MAVIC's right — water is non-toxic though of course it can still kill you and not only from drowning!
