The United States has also conducted a survey of mercury contamination in the blood of pregnant women in Mexico. The cause is that hospital researchers found that the mercury content in the blood of these pregnant women was abnormal, which exceeded three times the normal level. The last source of pollution identified in this investigation is also a whitening cream with mercury content exceeding 20,000 mg/L, which is 20,000 times the FDA requirement.
Whitening injection are quite popular in Asia in recent years, that is, intravenous injection of glutathione in large doses. Glutathione is an antioxidant normally synthesized by human liver cells. On the surface of the skin, they can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, thereby reducing the production of melanin. It is worth noting that the so-called whitening effect of glutathione is only a temporary local whitening effect, and large-dose intravenous injection can cause renal function damage . Even for oral glutathione used as a nutritional supplement, the daily dosage should not exceed 500 mg.
The US FDA has repeatedly issued warnings that the use of whitening needles may cause serious adverse reactions, including severe abdominal pain, epidermal tissue necrosis, and impaired thyroid and liver and kidney function. Since whitening needles have not passed drug approval in the United States, China and other countries, injection operations are usually carried out in private informal medical places such as beauty salons and small clinics. Irregular operations and over-dose intravenous injections will cause more serious consequences (Such as fatal scurvy caused by bacterial infection). Such important information will not be written on the advertisement of the beauty salon.

Currently recognized safer whitening ingredients include vitamin C and its derivatives, arbutin, etc., while the safer usage of glutathione is to use it orally at a prescribed dose; while creams with excessive mercury are generally products of informal manufacturers. If you buy regular big brand products and don't want the effect of "quick whitening", you usually won't step on thunder.
There is nothing wrong with spending time and money in order to be beautiful. However, if your healthy body is consumed, is such "beauty" still worth pursuing? The point is, is fair complexion and straight hair really the only criteria for testing "beauty"?
An intriguing fact is that when people with other skin colors try their best to whiten, white people, as a high-risk group of skin cancer, are trying to tan themselves in order to obtain a bronzed complexion.
In fact, as the times change, the evaluation criteria of "beauty" are constantly "evolving." For example, in the past 27 years, people’s perception of beauty has changed dramatically: Among the most beautiful people of the year selected by the American "People" magazine, the proportion of non-white people has increased from one-fifth in 1990 to almost half in 2017. The communication and integration between different cultures is unknowingly refreshing our understanding of beauty. Age is also not a problem: in these 27 years, the proportion of celebrities over the age of 35 has increased from 34% to 64%.
The definition of beauty continues to widen its boundaries in all directions. Confident, healthy, and diverse beauty is the general trend of the world today. So, you have to know that beauty does not lie in the color of the skin, whether the hair is straight or curly, let alone age. Be a healthy and confident yourself, you are the most beautiful.
