Toxic Products Linked To Cancer That Are Hiding In Almost Every Home
Nowadays, tons of conventional products which are present in your homes can cause cancer. These conventional products, from shampoos to cleaning products, are filled with toxic chemicals.
Most people are unaware that they have toxic products linked to cancer in every corner of their homes. Some of these products are the following:
Shampoos
Baby Powder
The talc-based baby powder produced by Johnson and Johnson is one of the most popular. The company has been sued many times and has paid millions of dollars to those who claimed their baby powder caused their cancer.
Artificial Sweeteners
Aspartame has been linked to numerous health problems, including cancer.
According to a study conducted in 2007, it showed that aspartame can cause breast cancer and leukemias/ lymphomas.
Stay away from artificial sweeteners and try some of the natural alternatives such as Stevia, Xylitol, dates, Maple syrup, and organic sugar cane.
Plastic Bottles and Food Containers
At present, people are becoming more aware of how using plastic containers can harm our health. Since BPA can cause cancer to people, there were lots of plastic bottles labeling “BPA-Free.”
In order for you to be safe, just use a refillable water bottle or glassware as it is better for your own health as well as to the health of the environment.
Toothpaste
Fluoride, a known carcinogen, is one of the worst ingredients found in most conventional and “dentist approved” kinds of toothpaste. It was not actually been proven that it can prevent the build-up of harmful oral bacteria; yet, it has been proven toxic wherein long-term ingestion of it has been linked to bone, brain, and heart complications.
Air Fresheners
For a more natural alternative, you can try using essential oils and water. You can even use natural disinfectants like pine and tea tree essential oils. Also, you can try brands like DoTerra or Saje Natural Wellness.
Conventional Cleaners
Household cleaning products have a chemical content known as 2-BE (causes reproductive problems), coal tar dyes (causes cancer and harms nervous system), ammonia (associated with kidney and liver damage), and the infamous “fragrance” or parfum.
Non-Stick Cookware
A certain study found that once a cookware coated with Teflon is heating for only two to five minutes on a conventional stovetop, it can cause the coating to break apart and produce toxic particles and gases. By just inhaling these, people can become sick with what’s known as the Teflon flu.
Soap
Whether it’s dish soap, hand soap, or body wash, conventional soaps often contain a wide array of chemicals. One example is antibacterial soaps which regularly contain Triclosan, a potential carcinogen. Likewise, conventional soaps often contain parfum/fragrance.
Good day. Any alternative for this harmful products?
