Attention! 4 Common Household Products To Be Banned as They Are Believed to Cause Skin Cancer

Nowadays we are exposed to many different products that contain substances harmful to our health.  A lot of these products are used in households throughout the world on a daily basis.

In order to be on the safe side, below, you have a list of the most harmful products we all use daily. Avoid using them as much as possible and switch to natural, homemade alternatives. Let’s take a look:

1. Artificial Sweeteners

Many people believed that artificial sweeteners are healthier than sugar. Although there are natural ones that are really healthy, but you have to know which ones aren´t!

• Acesulfame K:  it causes tumors and affects pregnancy
• Aspartame:  linked to skin cancer
• Saccharin:  may cause bladder cancer, since it is not easy to digest and it is discharged by the liver Sorbitol:  causes diarrhea, gases, swelling and digestion problems

The following are the natural sweeteners that are healthy and preferable for consumption:

• Stevia can  reduce the levels of sugar and in the blood and lowers high blood pressure
• Xylitol: improves the bone density and reduces the risk of dental caries.
• Yacon Syrup: relieves constipation and provides food to the good bacteria in the bowels.

2. Air Fresheners

In order to keep the house and certain shops clean, most of us use different chemical products. Even though certain cleaning substances are necessary to keep us safe from bacteria, truth is many of them cause health problems such as:

• Respiratory Disorders And Asthma
• Hormonal Problems

We recommend you to use the vinegar and baking soda combination because they contain natural anti-microbial cleaning properties. They don´t provoke secondary effects like commercial cleaners. They fight bacteria such as: E. Coli and Staph Salmonella.

3 ¨Head And Shoulders¨ Anti-Dandruff Shampoo

The anti-dandruff shampoo ¨head and shoulders 2-in-1″ contains methylchloroisothiazolinone and ammonium sulfate which may have been contaminated with 1, 4-dioxine during the production.

Scientific studies have proven these components to be carcinogenic when combined together. United States Department of Health and Human Services said that they should be withdrawn from the market.

That is why we urge you to prepare a natural shampoo with cypress and rosemary if you want to get rid of the issue with dandruff. Make a mixture of 5 tbsp. of common shampoo, 3 springs of rosemary, and the same amount of cypress, and 5 tbsp. of lemon or apple cider vinegar. Place them in a container and close it with a lid, using the shampoo 4 times per week until the issue is gone. 

4. Antibacterial Soap

These soaps serve to remove bad bacteria and germs, however, according to the studies from FDA, these soaps contain Triclosan, an ingredient which increases the risk of cancer and infertility, and cause interference with hormonal levels (in the early age and puberty)

Try to replace these chemical soaps and change them for the natural one, made at home. Homemade soaps are very good for skin and health in general. This is how you can make them:

1. Take a bar of mild, chemical-free soap with a standard grater.
2. Melt the soap on low heat and stir it to avoid the formation of lumps.
3. Add 30 drops of an essential oil to the melted soap and mix it well.
4. Pour the mixture in a container and let it dry. After that you´ll be able to use it.
5. Always pick an essential oil such as: eucalyptus, lavender, rosemary, lemon, clove and tea tree because they have anti-bacterial properties.
