Health Issues Regarding EGF Skin Cream

By Iva Cannon


Skincare products commercially available are believed to have benefits on the skin in ways that are almost too impossible to believe. It is true that there had been a lot of positive feedbacks regarding these products based on testimonials. This is largely because of the formulas being put into these products by the manufacturers. The sad truth is that they could also have side effects on the body.

Transgenic farming has been one of the latest pharmaceutical techniques in which to acquire the components of making products for skin enhancements and other beauty products. This is the process involved in making the EGF skin cream. EGF means Epidermal Growth Factor. They say it replenishes and makes the user look younger.

Numerous scientists have already made studies outlining the dangers of transgenic farming, This involves planting plants using genetic engineering. They are developed in order to contain biochemicals that the plants do not naturally have. There are different risk listed in the studies.

If the pollinators pollinate the genetically engineered plants, they could transfer the chemicals to wild plants and crops. This will endanger the health of humans and animals who are the final consumers in the food chain. Thus, if this is possible, it could also be possible that the EGF will have a direct negative effect on the ones who will use it.

The EGF is a cytokine composed of many cells that communicate with one another. Furthermore, they are growth factors which allow the growth of the epidermis. The name itself implies that it is capable of growing and reconstructing the cellules of the epidermis and the dermis.

Since it can reconstruct cellule, it can tighten the derma especially for older people. As a result, their wrinkles will lessen. But the fundamental function is not merely to hide or remove the wrinkles but to maintain the growth of the cells in the epidermis. Other products have exaggerated specifications written in their labels. But to be sure they are safe, consult your doctor immediately.

The characteristic of the product which is to boost cell growth is a factor that actually disturbs most scientists. This can be a serious threat and can cause cancer. The fact that it proliferates cellules, it can possibly multiply cancer cells as well. Although there is no direct effect, it poses a bigger threat to those who have cancer histories in the family.

And since the EGF has growth factors, they can also indirectly cause cancer which is utterly dangerous. It does not mean that it is possible to everyone who uses it. But for those who are susceptible to cancer or have a history of the disease in the family, this is not advised to be used. Anyone who has an undetected cancer will get worse if they use this product because it literally grows those cancer cells.

Thus, to be safe, use those skincare products that are mild. Ask your dermatologist which moisturizer, lotion, or cream is best suited to your skin type. Expert opinion is highly recommended before trying out a new product for yourself. Another thing is, ageing cannot be stopped no matter how much you try. But you can start living a healthier and more active life.
