DISHWASHING DETERGENT
Dishwashing
Detergents and Indoor Air Pollution
What
household cleaning product causes the most poisonings? It’s not
bleach, Lysol, or drain unblocker – according to the Center for
Science in the Public Interest, it’s dishwashing detergent. Most of
them contain naphtha, a fuel ingredient that is also a nervous system
depressant similar to hemlock or Valium.
Dishwashing
detergent and other cleaning agents may also have diethanolsamine (a
liver poison), chlorophenylphenol (a toxic metabolic stimulant),
chlorine, or carbamazepine (another central nervous system depressant).
Not only are these chemicals dangerous to your children and pets if
ingested, but whenever you wash dishes or clean with them, you’re
releasing fumes containing these toxins into the air you’re breathing.
Doesn’t
sound like that’s too bad? You eat two or three pounds of food each
day and drink about three pounds. But you inhale fifteen or more pounds
of air – and any toxins in the air come inside as well. In addition,
your lungs aren’t as good at removing toxins as your stomach is, so
more toxins get into your system. The
EPA recently announced that indoor air quality is our most significant
environmental issue today.
Consider
the following facts:
-
Many
homes have airborne pollutant levels 25 to 100 times that of the air
outside the home.
-
Cleaning
and personal care products you use in your home are three times as
likely to cause cancer as airborne pollutants from outside.
-
1500
hazardous substances can be found in the typical North American
home.
-
About
50% of ALL illnesses are caused by or aggravated by indoor
pollution.
-
Americans
spend 90% of their time indoors.
-
Housewives
may have a 55% higher risk of cancer than women working outside the
home.
-
Maybe
natural cleansers like lemon oils would be a better way to go?
