Everything out there in the market
contains something or the other which is harmful to your health but that
doesn’t mean that you do not have alternatives to such things. Also no one can avoid exposure to toxic
chemicals altogether, but reduction to exposure goes a long way, like mentioned
you should be aware and have the knowledge to know what cookware is harmful to
your or your family and thus you can take precautions not to uses or reduce the
use or find alternatives to that so it is possible to reduce exposure to toxic
chemicals altogether if you want to. Because
the law of the any countries give preference to industries and how they provide
the elected representative the money to run the government and moreover provide
the citizens work is what makes the elected representatives of any democracy
allow such blatant use of such toxic materials in their product which 99% of
the time cannot be proved in any court of law but you need to take care. Some of the worst toxic offenders commonly
found in household cleaning products are:
Phthalates and Naphthalene are found
in many fragrance household products such as air fresheners for home and for
vehicles, dish soap, even toilet paper, toilet products, though you won’t find
phthalates on the label, the word fragrance itself confirms the presence of
phthalates. These are known endocrine
disruptors, although exposure to phthalates and Naphthalene mainly occurs
through inhalation, also through skin contact with scented soaps and unlike the
digestive system, the skin has no safeguards against toxins and the chemicals
absorbed go straight to organs. It is
difficult to do away with fragrance hence alternatives are there, go for
fragrance free or all natural organic products that uses essential oils or
simply opening the windows to freshen the air.
These are natural air detoxifiers so in the interest of your health,
your loved ones, go for natural, healthier safer options.
Experts also warn that use of such
toxic household products cause asthma, tissue damage and even cancer due to
continuous usage over a long period of time even though the manufacturers claim
that their products are safe, you need to realize that manufacturers are only
interested in the profit that their product brings them so your choice whether
you want to reverse your cause of your ill health through banning such items
from your life or go through the misery of pain and symptoms that is associated
with any auto immune illness or cancer.
