I'LL HAVE MY COSMETICS WITH A SIDE OF INFERTILITY, PLEASE

Read the interview with Stacy Malkan titled "I'll Have My Cosmetics With a Side of Infertility, Please." Stacy is a scientist with the EWG (Environmental Working Group) and is the author of the book chronicling her and others' research, Not Just A Pretty Face, truly a must-read for any woman. There is an epidemic of infertility issues among women in their 20's and 30's - something that has never before been seen in such young women. Many, many of the chemicals in cosmetics and body care products, as well as those in plastics and a multitude of other products from our mattresses to our carpets contain chemicals that impact our endocrine (hormone) system.
