Protect Your Hands With
Organic-Dishwashing-Liquid
An organic-dishwashing-liquid is much gentler natural-soap for your skin rather than the
standard household toxic cleaners we use everyday without thinking.
The amount of skin-irritants that our porous skin soaks up in a day is
amazing. This leads to a number of itchy rashes and allergic reactions
for many people, and calls are made to poison control centers frequently
over toxic reactions.
Chemicals in the home cause this kind of skin reaction or at least mild
forms of it all the time.
Organic pesticides and and organic insecticides are replacing harsh chemicals
in the garden. Why not find a modern-organic-product for hands when washing your dishes?
You have to learn to become familiarized with modern organic products and their
ingredients and their labels these days to be sure of what you are buying.
Cleaners that aren't organic contain substances like formaldehyde, silicones,
synthetic fragances, and foambuilders.
These types of products need to be avoided. Products that don't contain
chemicals or preservatives are what is best.
Of course, anything labelled with a danger warning, or a long
list of symptoms to watch out for, should be the first clue that
it's not good for your health, let alone your skin.
Remember also, that your dirty dishwater has to go somewhere when you are
finished with it, and no matter where it goes, it is never completely
recycled. This water will make contact in one way or another with fish,
animals and soil.
Avoid products containing sodium lauryl sulfate. This chemical is used
in cleaning products to clean up oily stains. It is used in high doses
in industrial cleaners, but is also used in shampoos, and bubble bath
liquids and other cleaning soaps as well. It has the ability to create
a wonderful lather.
It also has the ability to cause dryness, redness, and even worsen existing skin
conditions that some people suffer. In fact, there is a concern about
the amount of SLS that is found in shampoo. It also builds up in your
organs after prolonged use.
The important thing to note, is that this is not needed to wash a dish
and get it clean.
Organic-dishwashing-liquid may contain olive-oil, which is a plant-based
ingredient and that is what we need to look for when purchasing.
Coconut-oil is an acceptable ingredient as well.
Try your local health-food store for organic-dishwashing-liquid if you
can't find it in your regular grocery store.
