WE'RE NOT A GIMMICKY SALES TRIP ! ! !
LISTEN: STOP POLLUTING
YOUR BLOOD WITH
ENGINE DEGREASERS ! ! !
We're NOT being silly! You are actually doing so! That’s SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) they are using in 90% of the shampoos commonly marketed today. That’s right; it’s been poisoning your scalp and entire body for years. It’s commonly used as an anionic surfactant in car wash soaps, garage floor cleaners, and engine degreasers. Do you want to be crazy? Do you need poisonous chemicals going into your head?
Well, neither do we! We are Neways! We care about all of you, as mothers, fathers, friends or anyone at all, and most especially we care about your children!
Engine degreasers cure nothing that ails you, you know…
“When scientists sampled Andrea Martin’s blood and urine to see what toxins she’d picked up from the world around her, she got a surprise. ‘I had 95 poisonous chemical contaminants in my small body. And it was mind-blowing!’ said Martin.
The test results clearly indicated the average person picks up significant amounts of an astounding number of chemicals that are known to be dangerous in larger doses.
MARTIN AND EIGHT OTHERS were tested by the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York and an advocacy organization called the Environmental Working Group. On average, the nine participants had traces of 53 chemicals known to cause cancer in human or animal tests. In addition, they had an average of 62 chemicals toxic to the brain or nervous system, plus 55 associated with birth defects.
The scientists did not find any single substance in amounts the government describes as unhealthy, but said the sheer number of chemicals was unnerving, especially given the uncertainty about the health effects of trace amounts…”

HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT THIS SAD BUT CORRECTIBLE SITUATION: NEWAYS! TRY US AND SEE, FOR YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY AT ALL! YOU WILL NOT BE POISONING YOURSELF ANYMORE, AND YOU WILL LIVE MUCH LONGER IF YOU ONLY TAKE BETTER CARE OF YOURSELF!
AND SO HERE WE GO WITH A
BRIEF HISTORY OF NEWAYS :
The Neways Story: About six months ago, I was made aware of some disturbing information regarding the personal care products we use every day. Once this information was revealed to me, I became a distributor for Neways International, a natural personal care products manufacturing company located in Utah, with distributors in over 50 countries. Neways is a professional and conscientious corporation, which with the Globous Relief Fund works together to form the Empower Alliance, a world-wide charitable organization.
The company has been in business for over 16 years, and Neways is family-owned and operated by the Mowers. Tom Mower has a degree in chemical engineering, and used to sell industrial chemical products, such as engine degreaser and hydraulic fluid. One fine day, however, a cosmetic company came to visit his place of employment and requested a chemical called propylene glycol. Propylene glycol is a hazardous chemical found in engine degreaser and hydraulic fluid.
It is also a common ingredient found in cosmetics.
Mower was amazed to hear this harmful chemical is used in numerous products that consumers use, every single day! These chemicals were “grandfathered in” by uncaring chemical manufacturers who only want to turn a buck! Therefore, they have never been properly tested to determine their potential long-term affects upon the human body!
THAT’S RIGHT!
CHEMICALS
YOUR CHILDREN ARE STUCK GROWING UP WITH FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES,
DESTROYING THEM -
Unless you DO SOMETHING ! ! !
YOU TOO HAVE BEEN HORRIBLY SUFFERING FROM THESE POISONOUS CHEMICALS FOR YEARS -
PROBABLY - FOR YOUR ENTIRE LIFE!!!
THE STRAIGHTFORWARD FACTS
ABOUT PERSONAL CARE:
Please, let me explain to you about dangerous household products. The products I am talking about include toothpaste, mouthwash, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, skin lotion, body wash, shaving cream, bubble bath, baby wipes, cosmetics and more…the list is long, but not endless.
The chemicals in the products you are currently using have the potential to gradually poison your body and increase your risk exposure to cancer. You and your family members use these products every day without a second thought. But think about it. How do you feel, lately?
Ingredients like DEA (diethanolamine), TEA (trethanolamine), propylene glycol, SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate, mentioned above), fluoride, and alcohol, have all been identified by experts as known or potential carcinogens. Of course, that’s just the start of what they are finishing off in you. Poison, such as the nicotine in cigarettes, is a proven cause of early deaths due to lung cancer. Yes, tobacco is natural, but why would you inhale a concentrated plant? You have to be very careful about what you put in your body, or you will find out that you weren’t careful enough, you see. It catches up with everybody!
But don’t think you can’t do anything!
Neways is careful. We do not carelessly throw “cleaners” into our products, without carefully lab-testing them first to see how they tick. YOU CAN TRUST US! We sell no such “junky” products. We sell NATURAL products, and unlike tobacco, they can all be trusted to NOT poison your family’s bodies and your minds! They will clean you, and leave you refreshed, feeling clean and healthy!
And think of your children. They are growing people. They NEED something better than what they are getting. Think of the time you washed once, and the soap went into your eyes. You know exactly how that felt!
Well, be prepared for a shocker. “Normal” baby shampoos are all made from the same types of harmful chemicals we mentioned! Even if it seems to not hurt your child’s eyes, it harms them subtly, without seeming so awful. They HAVE harmful chemicals in them…the manufacturers just don’t tell you about that. They use other chemicals to make the shampoo SEEM safer. That doesn’t mean the poisonous chemicals aren’t there!
ABOUT SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE, WHICH YOU ARE NOW USING:
SLS, more commonly known as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, (a common foaming ingredient found in everything from shampoo, body wash, bubble bath and toothpaste) is the culprit in thousands of complaints to the FDA. According to Ruth Winters, author of “A Consumer’s Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients” the FDA has received reports from consumers that include reactions to SLS such as eye and scalp irritation, tangled hair, swelling of hands, face and arms, and split and fuzzy hair. But this isn’t the worst of it.
SLS is a wetting agent, or surfactant, whose purpose is to reduce the surface tension of the water, thus allowing the shampoo to spread easier and penetrate more easily. It is a cheap ingredient and mixed with Sodium Stearate, it usually composes approximately fifty percent of a shampoo’s ingredients. About forty percent is water and the other 10 percent is preservatives, fragrance and color. Many shampoos that claim to have herbal extracts usually include them in the water content. However, with all the other chemicals, the risks far outweigh the benefit these herbs provide. You need a larger amount of the natural herbs.
Judi Vance, a pioneer in the fight to educate consumers about the chemicals contained in most personal care products and author of “Beauty to Die For” has done exhaustive research on SLS.
Here are some of the results of her findings:
There are four categories of SLS. They include Anionic, Nonionic, Cationic and Amphoteric. Amphoteric and Anionic are the types found in most shampoos, conditioners and lotions. Anionic are the cheapest and foam the best, while Amphoteric are the mildest group and are used in shampoos for their conditioning abilities. The Nonionic group is used in spray-on oven cleaners. But here is where the problem lies.
A study citied in the Wall Street Journal (November 1, 1988) linked SLS to cataracts and nitrate absorption (nitrates are carcinogens-or cancer causing substances). Apparently, this absorption occurs when the SLS becomes contaminated with NDELA (N-nitrosodiethanolamine) during processing. This contamination comes about as a result of SLS coming into contact with chemicals such as TEA (triethanolamine), which is a commonly used ingredient in commercial shampoos as a detergent.
The equation looks like this: SLS + TEA = NDELA (a nitrosamine and a recognized carcinogen).
What bothers us is while many companies claim that SLS is a safe ingredient (the jury is still out on this) the problem is what we refer to as a “chemical cocktail”. When these ingredients come into contact with one another, some will bond, forming cancer causing nitrosamines. This is where the danger lies. So, while some chemicals may be mild or classified as safe independently, once you combine them, dangerous things can happen. Just because SLS supposedly comes from coconuts doesn’t mean the molecular structure isn’t potentially damaging.
There is a lot of information available on SLS - it is very controversial these days. The presence of the “chemical cocktail” is a very real and ticking time bomb. Read labels and choose alternatives. Many companies have developed products that foam just as or nearly as well as many large-scale commercial products (check out our organic herbal shampoo!) And just because a product claims to be natural (they can say the product is natural if it contains SLS since it’s derived from coconuts) doesn’t mean it’s safe. Read labels, research and ask questions. We’ll have more to come on this area in the future!
