Skin Deep pairs ingredients in more than 25,000 products against 50 definitive toxicity and regulatory databases, making it the largest integrated data resource of its kind. Why did a small nonprofit take on such a big project? Because the FDA doesn't require companies to test their own products for safety.

In recent years the term healthy living has been used erroneously to describe isolated parts of a lifestyle that needs improvement. To most, healthy living is simply defined as just eating well and getting some exercise every now and then. However, the truth is that a healthy lifestyle should encompass your entire daily routine, every day of the year, with a holistic approach, rather than an isolated one.

A healthy lifestyle can only result from making right choices about what you eat and drink, what activities you choose to perform, and what you surround yourself with everyday. It can also include such things as getting appropriate exposure to the sun, getting proper rest, eating natural and organic foods, using natural cures, and balancing the mind-body-spirit connection. In short, it means continually surrounding yourself with the right environment for optimum health and well being.
