Aside from Water, many of the Ingredients are not only difficult to pronounce... they are also not suitable for exposure in Humans and Animals. Additionally, most "Commercial Products" are devastating to the environment (in the manufacturing of and disposal of finished container and ingredient remnants).

So, why do these account for 75% (or more) of all the products in this specific market, in the United States, and some other parts of the World?
