Health Risks of Methylene Chloride & Chloroform
Methylene chloride is classified as a probable human carcinogen and can depress the central nervous system, potentially leading to dizziness, nausea, or even loss of consciousness at high exposure levels. Chloroform poses similar carcinogenic and organ-toxicity concerns. FDA regulations prohibit both solvents in cosmetic items, regardless of the amount detected.
