Laundry & Detergents

Laundry Room

Your washing machine routine — detergents, pods, softeners, dryer sheets, scent boosters, and stain removers. Many popular brands (Tide, Gain, Downy, Persil, Shout) hide toxins like 1,4-dioxane (carcinogen byproduct), phthalates/synthetic fragrances (hormone disruptors), quats (asthma triggers), optical brighteners, phosphates (environmental harm), SLS/SLES (skin irritants), and formaldehyde releasers. These can cause skin rashes, respiratory issues, endocrine disruption, or indoor air pollution via residues and off-gassing.
