Read your labels, and not just on your food. It’s important to be aware of the ingredients in your body care (soaps, lotions, sunscreens, etc.) because these ingredients have been shown to irritate the respiratory, immune, and digestive systems… and some even have been linked to cancers!
Here is my list of ingredients to always avoid:
CLEANSERS
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Sodium Laureth Sulfate
Sodium Myreth Sulfate
PETROCHEMICALS
Petrolatum
Mineral Oil
Paraffin
PRESERVATIVES
Parabens (all of them) (methylparaben, propylparaben, etc)
DMDM Hydantoin
CHEMICAL SUNSCREENS
Oxybenzone
Avobenzone
Octinoxate
MOISTURIZERS
Propylene Glycol
Butylene Glycol
Polyisobutene
Stay happy, be healthy!
