In the last few days I read of 3 people who were diagnosed with ALS which I thought was a rare disease. A friend in the medical branche who is jabbed, is now very scared to get Alzheimers, which runs in the family. Anything that alters body functions should be avoided. Knowing what PEG is I decided rightaway I don't want this. I even don't want it in my shampoo, where it is a common ingredient

Some toothpastes also contain PEG.

yes indeed, most regular toothpastes have all kinds of distrust causing ingredients. I tend to use Jasons, auromere, weleda when on sale, and desert essence, and I always read the ingredients before ordering, because toms of maine got taken over by bigchem and then you buy colgate for 4 times the price !

I brush my teeth with water, a toothbrush, and nothing on the toothbrush. Am I missing anything?

I don't know. For years my dad brushed his teeth with a piece of wood with nothing at all on it. He had very strong teeth until about 10 years ago. He is now almost 89 and has partial dentures. Mom has cleaned her teeth all her life and lost most of her teeth in her 20s. One dentist told dad that most people ruin their teeth by cleaning them too much ! A friend cleans hers with baking soda. I like the fresh taste of the toothpaste.

The shots introduce prions into the brain.

Well, I just looked at Dawn Dishwashing Liquid ingredients on their website and it says it contains PEG-24.

Check your toothpaste tube.

PEG8 is in Arm & Hammer PeroxiCare toothpaste.

Nothing like putting polyethylene glycol in your mouth.

Yep, a lot of products. I was on board with personal care but forgot about other household stuff. Thanks.

Thank you for the tip about your shampoo. I got straight up and checked mine, and yes PEG is listed there. Gonna chuck it out and buy another brand (hopefully I'll find one).

These little bits of information make the comments infinitely worth my while. Thank you again.

In toothpaste also.

Yes, and that's even worse I'd think. Shampoo says PEG-55, Oral-B has PEG-6. I also seem to recall PEG-24. Makes me wonder at the differences between one PEG and another. Kinda confusing. It didn't use to take a degree in chemistry to wash one's hair and brush one's teeth.

Try Dr Bronner's soap... all natural ingredients and so on. The liquid version is a good shampoo; the bar soap is even better (makes more bubbles! <G>)

I've been using Kirk's bar soap for years. Purchased at Walmart. I use it for body and hair. Other soaps had me breaking out. Same with deodorant. Most of it is pure chemistry. I actually use sauve. I don't get rashes.

you are very welcome and yes there are shampoos without it. Right now I got at least 10 different ones LOL. A cheap one from the regular store is head and shoulders and that is now my favorite.

Having taken care of my mother with ALS for the last year of her life, I can attest that no one who did the same would ever take the clot shot. Like you, as soon as I saw PEG in the ingredient list, I said no way in hell would I take this. The sad thing about doctors is that such a huge percentage of them took the shot right away. My brother was in the Monsanto trial, was thrilled about it. I told him for a physician, he was pretty stupid. Agree with you about shampoo, with PEG in, shampoo is out.

MDs/DOs had to demonstrate their capitulation somewhere - so why not just act like you were excited about 'helping' science with participation in a really unique trial. As opposed to all the poor slobs advised to take an experimental drug administered as an experiment en masse.

Understood. And I was always the family rebel , so very glad I am.
