Mom to Mom Health

(Chocolate Cupcakes with Vanilla Swiss Meringue Frosting)

This weekend a friend of mine launched her new website Mom To Mom Health. I made some cupcakes for the event :)

Mom to Mom Health was started after her diagnosis of breast cancer in 2007. After overcoming it, she made it her mission to share what she has learned with others. She had no family history of breast cancer or any serious health issues, which lead her to believe that the chemicals in the environment played a role in my developing breast cancer. The site is dedicated to chemical free personal care products for women, men and children.

Did you know....
~ That cosmetic products we use daily, like shampoo, body wash, make-up, and even baby lotions contain chemicals that have been linked to serious health concerns such as cancer and birth defects? And did you know that it is perfectly legal in the US for companies to make personal care products with these harmful ingredients?
~The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has almost no authority to regulate cosmetics. Most ingredients are never tested for safety.

At Mom to Mom Health you can purchase everything from bath products, skincare, makeup, hair care and more. And with every purchase $1 is donated to Breastcancer.org. Please visit her site - it's a great resource and the donations go to a great cause. (PS - did you know October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month ;-)
