Does artificial sweetener eliminate the toxic, smell effects of hair dye?


I add artificial sweetener to my hair, bleach dye mix to eliminate the toxic smell. Does this also eliminate the toxic effects from the smell or should I still apply the shower cap to contain the toxic effects?
----------

Well as a stylist I've heard of people doing things at home, but I've never heard of artificial sweetener before, lol. And I don't really know what toxic effects you're worried about. Unless you're working with chemicals all day long for many years, you'll be fine.  (+ info)

Is it true that the ingredients in the swiffer wet jet is toxic to animals?


One (or more) of the ingredients are supposed to be toxic when licked from your pets paws. I have heard this a few times, but never what that ingredient is, & if swiffer may have changed the formula.
----------

My daughter-in-law asked me not to use that because they bring their 2 dogs to visit. So, if you are asking, it must be something many, many people have heard and is of great concern to animal owners. She told me exactly what you said about licking their paws. (I re-read what you wrote and it looks like the person is licking their pets paws. I know you didn't mean that, but it struck me funny. LOL) I haven't heard that Swiffer changed their formula. I just got rid of it. I haven't heard any recalls, either. And what about babies??? I wouldn't take a chance. (Now I'm talking like you - I didn't mean a recall on babies. LOL)  (+ info)

what happens when your blood become toxic from medication?


my brother takes meds for schizophrenia and his doctor said he needs his blood taken once a month to make sure it doesn't become 'toxic'..could you die as a result of this?
----------

Certain medications have to be monitored to make sure their levels are not high or to low. In this case your doctor said "toxic" to much medication (depending on the medication) can lead to seizures, other problems including death. But by having his medication levels tested once a month it insures that he is not getting to much, but enough to help control is Schizophrenia. It sounds like your brother found a doctor that knows what he is doing.  (+ info)

If someone does not want amalgam or the other toxic filling what can they request for their fillings?


What is the name of a non toxic dental filling material and which ones do you beleive are toxic? What do you think, thanks?
----------

Whether amalgam actually causes toxicity is a big controversy. The ADA says that it is safe to use amalgam and in certain cases it is the best choice to build up the tooth.
One things is for sure that you have alternatives. If the area will be taking a lot of load (like back teeth) then you can go in for composites which are tooth colored filling materials. If the area is not taking as much load (front teeth) you can go in for Glass Ionomer cement or Composite.
Other than this you can go in for casted metal restorations or ceramic or porcelain crowns, inlays, onlays but those are not fillings.  (+ info)

Is toxic level different if meds are taken orally, and same med crushed and injected into chest line?


Would crushed pills liquidified injected by syringe into a chest line have a higher toxic level than the same meds taken orally? If only 1/2 the syringe of crushed/liquidified meds had gotten injected, the line was clogged?
----------

yes of course.

The delivery of a medication determines dosage - a med that is taken orally, first goes through the liver which removes/processes some of the med; what is left is the theraputic level. That is why medication given orally tends to be a higher dosage.

IV meds bypass the liver and go directly into the bloodstream. there is much more potential for overdose if the dosage is incorrect.

you should NEVER inject a med that was designed to be taken orally. It is a good way to die.  (+ info)

why exactly is toxic paint on toys bad for babies and children?


I've got some farm animal toys from argos and they smell really strong. are they still allowed to use toxic paint on toys, it doesn't say on the package. i don't know whether to take the risk but surely somewhere like argos wouldn't sell harmful toys?
----------

if the package has a CE mark on it they are OK for use as they have been tested for harmful products, dangerous mechanisms etc. Under EUROPEAN LAW!!
The packaging should have an indication of what age they are suitable for 0-6mths, 3-5yrs or a symbol, usually a triangle with a baby head in it and an age group they are NOT suitable for eg) 3+ (not suitable for under 3's)

Paint is rarely an issue in this day and age - but cheap toys from china / hong kong etc u do have to be careful  (+ info)

What food ink or dye is used to mark the date of production on egg shell and is it toxic?


What ink or dye is used to mark the date of production on egg shell and is it toxic?
Now every egg bought from supermarket is marked the date of production on its shell with red colour ink or dye. When boiling the egg I found that the red colour disappares and the ink or dye may go into the egg and binds to egg protein. If the ink or dye is toxic or even slightly harmful, it will be no good for our health in long run.
----------

No, it is NOT toxic, don't worry. If it' was harmful the would be a major class action law suit going.
