By: Annie Cheney“You are a little soul carrying around a corpse.” —Epictetus
“Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will follow.” —Matthew 24:28
Body Brokers is an audacious, disturbing, and compellingly written investigative exposé of the lucrative business of procuring, buying, and selling human cadavers and body parts.
Every year human corpses meant for anatomy classes, burial, or cremation find their way into the hands of a shadowy group of entrepreneurs who profit by buying and selling human remains. While the government has controls on organs and tissue meant for transplantation, these “body brokers” capitalize on the myriad other uses for dead bodies that receive no federal oversight whatsoever: commercial seminars to introduce new medical gadgetry; medical research studies and training courses; and U.S. Army land-mine explosion tests. A single corpse used for these purposes can generate up to $10,000.
As journalist Annie Cheney found while reporting on this subject over the course of three years, when there’s that much money to be made with no federal regulation, there are all sorts of shady (and fascinating) characters who are willing to employ questionable practices—from deception and outright theft—to acquire, market and distribute human bodies and parts. In Michigan and New York she discovers funeral directors who buy corpses from medical schools and supply the parts to surgical equipment companies and associations of surgeons. In California, she meets a crematorium owner who sold the body parts of people he was supposed to cremate, generating hundreds of thousands of dollars in profits. In Florida, she attends a medical conference in a luxury hotel, where fresh torsos are delivered in Igloo coolers and displayed on gurneys in a room normally used for banquets. “That torso that you’re living in right now is just flesh and bones to me. To me, it’s a product,” says the New Jersey-based broker presiding over the torsos. Tracing the origins of body brokering from the “resurrectionists” of the nineteenth century to the entrepreneurs of today, Cheney chronicles how demand for cadavers has long driven unscrupulous funeral home, crematorium and medical school personnel to treat human bodies as commodities.
Gripping, often chilling, and sure to cause a reexamination of the American way of death, Body Brokers is both a captivating work of first-person reportage and a surprising inside look at a little-known aspect of the “death care” world.

Love it 🥰 Highly recommend
I got this because I had the scented one and its fragrance was too strong for me but I like the cleanser but this one is scent free and I love it.
I do the double cleansing with the oil first then this product and the really help keep my skin feel protected and soft. So gas as the foaming I use less than a dime maybe a quarter the size of a dime and get great foaming. Definitely add the soup first then some water to get the foaminess. Since I started using this cleanser I feel the effects are not hearsay or stripping.
Pros: Scent free, requires small amount for a good cleansing and leave you feeling soft yet cleaned and ready for your next step like toner or witch hazel.
Cons: None for now.
I really like this product and recommend to anyone who needs a good scent free cleanser

Dry skin+ psoriasis friendly
My partner has dry skins and psoriasis and this is his go to face wash. When he runs out he grumbles about having to use mine. Makes his face feel clean without over drying or agitating it.

Amazing Gentle and Acne-safe Cleanser!
This gentle yet effective cleanser is great for daily use!
This product is very safe for sensitive, acne-prone, and fungal-prone skin, as there are no comedogenic ingredients and fragrance-free.
When applying and emulsifying the cleanser, it transforms from a gel to a foam-like consistency, which helps remove sweat, dirt, and sunscreen from the face.

Great simple gentle cleanser
Love this cleanser. I use it night for after oil cleansing. I have oily, dehydrated mature skin. I have roseca on my cheeks so I have to be careful of harsher cleansers. I wanted just a simple hydrating cleanser. Since I have oily skin, I need a gel cleanser for the evening & this fit the bill. Doesn't strip my face, but doesn't leave any residue like so many hydrating cleansers do. It doesn't irritate my roseca & doesn't break me out. I have also used this as a morning cleanser while traveling & it doesn't disappoint. I have a different morning cleanser that is more creamy, but isn't enough at night. I'm going on my 3rd tube & will continue to buy! I would say if you have dry skin, this may not be suited for you because it is a gel cleanser.
