10 Deadly Toxic Products You Can Live Without
4. Fragrance
The synthetic fragrances that are found in almost every home such as dryer sheets, air fresheners, perfumes, cosmetics, laundry soap, and fabric softeners, are known to trigger asthmatic reactions.
Although the formulas for fragrances are well protected and considered trade secrets, it’s well known that many contain the chemical DEP (diethyl phthalate), which is easily absorbed through the skin.
DEP is a carcinogen and disrupts hormones, which can lead to problems with the reproductive system in humans. DEP and other phthalates are rarely listed in ingredients.
Be safe, and look for fragrance free products or those that only use natural essential oils for a pleasing smell.
