Скачать или смотреть The Toxic Truth About Dish Soap (You’ll Never Look at It the Same Again) Dr. Mandell

Most people think dish soap is harmless, just bubbles, foam, and a fresh scent. But research shows that many dish soaps release toxic fumes, leave chemical residues on your plates, and even contain additives that can disrupt your gut, your hormones, and your immune system. If you’ve ever opened a bottle and felt the smell burn your nose, that’s your body warning you.

🔹 Here’s the truth: many soaps release VOCs (volatile organic compounds) that irritate your lungs and nervous system. Residues like alcohol ethoxylates can inflame your intestinal lining and weaken your gut barrier. Some antibacterial soaps once contained triclosan — linked to hormone disruption and antibiotic resistance. Even without triclosan, antibacterial additives can disturb your healthy gut microbiome. And these chemicals don’t stop with you — they wash into rivers and lakes, fueling toxic algae blooms and harming wildlife.

✅ What you can do instead: look for labels with EPA Safer Choice or EWG Verified. Avoid soaps with synthetic fragrance, dyes, or long chemical names you can’t pronounce. Choose plant-based surfactants derived from coconut or corn that clean effectively without harsh residues. Use essential oils like lemon, lavender, or tea tree for a natural scent. Or make your own: mix 1 cup liquid castile soap, 1 cup water, and a few drops of lemon or tea tree oil. For antibacterial power, use white vinegar (proven to kill microbes), lemon juice (citric acid is naturally antibacterial), hydrogen peroxide (3%) for sponges or boards, and baking soda + hot water for grease and odors.

💡 Dish soap touches you three times: when you inhale it, when it contacts your skin, and when you eat off the residue it leaves behind. Small daily exposures add up over years — but one simple change can protect your gut, lungs, brain, and even the planet. If this opened your eyes, share it with someone you care about. We all deserve to know the truth about what’s hiding in our kitchens.
