    Gulf news 13 Feb 09:

    Dubai Municipality has withdrawn from the local market some 17 shampoos of five brands from China, India and Iran whose samples have been found in laboratory tests to contain a high percentage of dioxane 1.4, which is carcinogenic if used on a long-term basis.

    Alert Danger List:
    • Himalaya Herbals Gentle Baby Shampoo (India)
    • Himalaya Protein Shampoo (India)
    • Himalaya Anti-Dandruff greasy hair shampoo (Few Batches)
    • Sehat Alomond Shampoo (Iran)
    • Sehat Sedar Shampoo (Iran)
    • Olive Essence Shampoo (China)
    • Ginseng Essence (China)
    • Gornia Eggs Shampoo (China)
    For me its surprising to know that Himalayas which i always thought is a pure herbal shampoo is included in this list.
