Update: Tea tree, lavender controversy - rebutted by R. Tisserand

[Guest guest]

Robert Tisserand has written a rebuttal article on the subject of

gynecomastia (breast enlargement) in young boys. You may recall that

the New England Journal of Medicine recently published an article

stating that the use of certain unnamed aromatic products containing

those oils caused gynecomastia in three young boys.

 

The article and the press release can be read at

For those who use these oils in either their perfumes or toiletries,

it may be beneficial to refer to the article when questioned by customers.

 

I just uploaded the pages tonight, and if you find any errors, please

let me know. I have to correct some font and background problems, but

that will have to wait until tomorrow. Thanks for any feedback.
