Almost every product you buy contains fragrances of some kind. From the clothes you wear to personal products such as shampoo and deodorant to cleaning products to candles to pet products … chemically-created fragrances are everywhere. And they are very detrimental to your health.
The good news is that you can make changes that allow you to live a (mostly) chemical-free life. In today's episode, we're talking about the myriad of fragrances hidden in products, how fragrances cause problems to physical and hormonal health, multi-chemical sensitivities, and switching out products in your home for fragrance-free alternatives.
What's in this episode:
Why chemicals in fragrances don't have to be listed, and how there are likely more chemicals (perhaps hundreds) hidden in formulas than you think
How fragrances get ingested into the body (e.g. through our skin and respiratory system) and cause problems
How cleaning and personal products with fragrance are toxic to the body, and how these effects accumulate over time
Physical symptoms that are triggered by fragrances, and how chemicals affect our hormones
How multi-chemical sensitivities have become more common, and natural alternatives to chemicals and fragrances
How a chemical detox can be helpful
