THE GRAHAM SLAM STORY
IT ALL STARTED WITH A RASH...
Graham Slam healing diaper ointment began with what else, a diaper rash? And it was a bad one. Right after we brought Graham home from the hospital we noticed his diaper rash getting worse. It was irritated and nothing the doctors gave us at the hospital worked. So we went to the drug store and bought every diaper paste on the shelf. Still nothing helped his rash.
A SUCCESS STORY
Our family owns a compounding pharmacy that specializes in customized medicines and Graham’s dad, Josh, is a compounder. Josh frantically got to work on researching and creating the perfect ointment to heal Graham’s little bum.
He brought home a jar of ointment and it healed his diaper rash within 24 hours! The ointment was a hit, hence Graham Slam. We passed samples out to other parents at our pediatrician’s office and they too found the diaper ointment a success.
Necessity is the father of invention.
OUR FORMULA
PURE INGREDIENTS
For my son, I only use the purest ingredients from the finest sources. Your baby deserves the same. Graham Slam uses an effective yet gentle blend of active ingredients that will heal your baby’s rash and maintain the health and integrity of the skin.
Best of all, these ingredients are well-researched, safe, gentle, non-irritating, and non-steroidal. That means our hypoallergenic and fragrance-free formula is perfect for the most sensitive baby’s bottom. Our special blend includes:
Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide): Helps the skin produce the lipid components that give it strength, integrity and resistance to external damaging agents.
Vitamin B5 (Dexpanthenol): Improves the symptoms of skin irritation, reduces itching, and maintains skin softness and elasticity. Vitamin B5 is essential for normal epithelial function.
Betaglucan: Derived from oats and yeast, betaglucan stimulates the skin’s defensive mechanisms (Langerhans cells) to defend and repair.
Allantoin: Regarded for its anti-inflammatory effect on the skin and its ability to reduce itching.
Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate): Moisturizes, soothes, and protects the skin against oxidative damage.
Lanolin: Maintains and restores the moisture balance of skin. Our lanolin is so pure it exceeds the standards set by the United States Pharmacopeia.
WHY DON'T WE USE ZINC OXIDE?
This is an ingredient often found in diaper ointments. We conducted an extensive review of the medical literature and simply put, no research supports the claim that zinc oxide resolves diaper rash.
Our own research suggests that zinc oxide may actually hinder the ability of the active ingredients to perform their proper function. When we left it out our friends were happier, as zinc oxide can be sticky and messy.
