Are your products safe?

A couple of weeks ago I came across an article about how unsafe our toothpaste, mouthwash, and other personal care products might be. The article went into paid archive land, but I found another site with an equivalent article as well as a website that grades these various products. I'm only a little bit surprised that the news media hasn't made a fuss about this.

You can find the article at: http://www.ewg.org/issues/cosmetics/FDA_Warning/index.php
Also check out: http://www.safecosmetics.org
Site that grades products: http://www.ewg.org/reports/skindeep2/index.php

While I will only go so far in being paranoid about these things, I will at least look for better products to use.
