NewVo Beauty Applauds Salons' Decision to Use Healthier Products

Bohemia, NY (PRWEB) April 11, 2013

On April 11, NewVo Beauty commends several salons' decision to begin offering healthier, natural beauty and hair care products, as reported in a recent article on Cleveland.com.

According to the article, chemical-free, produce-based beauty products are on the rise. This has led to a surge in green-focused businesses that are catering to alternatives of conventional beauty products and services. The article reports that salons are among the businesses that are beginning to offer healthier products and services.

The article surveys several of these progressive salons and their owners. The use of chemical-free shampoos, conditioners and treatments are bringing in customers who are looking for ways to switch over to an environmentally sustainable beauty regimen.

The average woman puts more than 500 chemicals on her body each day, says Christine Vadala, the co-founder of GlamNatural, a vegan cosmetic company in Akron. From shampoo and conditioner to deodorant and foundation, we expose ourselves to a laundry list of ingredients -- many of which can be harmful.

Another beauty expert points out that more than half of what we put on our bodies gets absorbed by the skin, a frightening statistic if the product contains chemicals you can't pronounce.

NewVo Beauty, a beauty supply company committed to providing quality products to their customers, commends the forward-looking salon owners for making a change to help better their clients' health. These healthier product options include organic, vegan and hypoallergenic products that consume fewer natural resources and have a smaller environmental footprint. Some of the latest products are even safe enough to eat. Together, these salons are taking a stance on the environment.

Women dont realize how much harm they are causing to their own bodies just from the beauty products that they use on a daily basis, says Sara Greenstone, a representative for NewVo Beauty. We encourage the use of products made by Pureology, which not only has hair care products that are sulfate-free, but are also committed advocates to protecting the environment from harmful ingredients that are traditionally used to make these products. Pureology exemplifies the trend of premium beauty products that push aside the notion that natural hair care cannot also be high quality.

NewVo Beauty sells over 5,000 professional beauty salon products. Committed to providing quality, hard to find products and great service, NewVo Beauty offers high-demand salon merchandise at affordable prices. Theyre available 24/7 to answer any queries to ensure customers have a great buying experience.

SAGES Issues Statement on Benefits of Laparoscopic Obesity Surgery - Governor Chris Christies Decision to Undergo Procedure Provides Opportunity to Educate Patients

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 10, 2013

Committed to enhancing overall patient well-being, the Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons (SAGES) today issued a statement on the benefits of laparoscopic obesity surgery. We echo the NIH consensus that weight loss surgery is the only effective long term method for the treatment of obesity while diet management and other systems achieve temporary results, said Dr. Scott Melvin, Professor and Chief of Gastrointestinal Surgery at Ohio State University and the immediate past President of SAGES. For the right patients, surgery for obesity is life saving, improves quality of life and may even reduce health care costs over the course of time. New Jersey Governor Chris Christies decision to share his experience has provided a valuable opportunity for patients to educate themselves and dialogue with their physicians on such minimally invasive surgical (MIS) procedures, Dr. Melvin said.

SAGES has been at the forefront of best practices in laparoscopic obesity surgery by researching, developing and disseminating the guidelines and training for standards of practice in surgical procedures. Both open and laparoscopic bariatric operations are effective therapies for morbid obesity and represent complementary state-of-the-art procedures however as is the case with a majority of MIS procedures, recovery is generally faster with MIS and there are less complications.

Patients are encouraged to review the SAGES Patient Information Guidelines for Laparoscopic Surgery for Severe (Morbid) Obesity at http://www.sages.org/publications/patient_information to learn about treatment options, the advantages of laparoscopic obesity surgery and if they would be considered as a candidate for this type of surgery.
