Dr. Christine H. Farlow, D.C. is "The Ingredients Investigator." She has been investigating and researching the safety of ingredients used in food, cosmetics and personal care products since 1991. She is committed to finding the truth about these chemicals, many not adequately tested and used far too often, by manufacturers in products we put in and on our bodies.

Dr. Farlow's interest in the study of ingredient safety started with the "Healthy Eating" classes she held in her office. Each class included learning how to read and understand the ingredients on food labels. This led to the writing of her first book, FOOD ADDITIVES: A Shopper's Guide To What's Safe & What's Not, first published in 1993, and now in its fifth revision, the 2007 Revised Edition.

Her awareness of the importance of the ingredients in products used on the skin and the potential for harm from unsafe ingredients absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream, led Dr. Farlow to writing her third book, DYING TO LOOK GOOD, now in its completely revised and expanded, second edition. It classifies over 1300 cosmetic ingredients according to safety and lists over 750 safe products and where you can buy them.

In Latin, doctor means teacher. Dr. Farlow takes this seriously. She is dedicated to getting her message out and teaching people about how the choices we make about simple things like the food we eat and the products we use on our skin can have long-term detrimental effects on our health. Many of the diseases we see today, like cancer, heart disease and diabetes are related to our lifestyle choices. And we have control over the choices we make.

The study of nutrition and holistic health has been a passion for Dr. Farlow since 1975. Before she ever earned the title of doctor, people were coming to her unsolicited and asking for her advice. It just seemed natural that the next step would be to become a doctor and make it her business to counsel patients in health and nutrition.

Dr. Farlow is a Doctor of Chiropractic with a specialty in Nutrition. She practices chiropractic and nutritional counseling at her office in Escondido, CA, and also does nutritional counseling by telephone.

She is a veteran at teaching people how to make healthy choices about what they put in and on their body. She has been counseling patients since 1984 and has helped thousands of people improve their health through chiropractic, nutrition and healthy lifestyle choices.

Dr. Farlow is the author of three health and nutrition books:

Her books evolved out of her teaching and her nutritional counseling. These were the tools she found that people needed most to get started toward eating healthfully, making healthy eating a lifetime habit and developing an overall health consciousness. They are written in a practical, easy-to-use format so that you can take charge of your health and start benefiting from the information in the books within minutes of first opening them, without investing a lot of time doing it.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Christine Farlow

Your life is a gift. Good health is your reward for taking care of it.

You can preserve and regain your health by living a healthy lifestyle. An important part of a healthy lifestyle includes choosing healthy foods to eat, nutritional supplements designed specifically for your body chemistry and healthy products to use on your body and around your home.

You can't tell if a product is healthy just by looking at the label on the front of the package. Manufacturers know that consumers are more aware of healthy products these days and they purposely design the packages to make it look like the product inside is healthy. Too frequently products with harmful ingredients are marketed as natural and healthy. You need to read and understand the ingredients in the fine print on the back of the label to get the truth about the safety of the product inside the package. Make sure that you choose products with only healthy ingredients.
