Antiviral Kleenex! and Bathroom/shower chemicals list

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends;

 

This message was posted yesterday on the [wildharvest] group,

featuring many parents especially essential oils users, where many

topics are well as well as wildly shared. As quality of reproductive

tissues, breast milk, babies in the making and long term health are

all of concern especially for perinatal mothers, I'm sharing these

messages of useful resource and warning here:

just wanted to pass this on... mmy mom was listening to the radio a

couple of days and a news clip mentioned that Kimberly Clark is

*improving* their Kleenexes. they are supposedly adding a pesticide to

them to kill the illness. maybe pesticide isn't the right word, but

that's the word the radio person used.

 

i for one will not be purchasing any *new and improved* Kleenex

Hi Ingrid,

 

It's not their " new and improved " it's their anti-viral tissues and

they're already on the market and have been for some time. And

pesticides is the exact same word I used heard to describe them as

well. To be specific, it's a blend of citric acid and sodium lauryl

sulfate. (Doesn't THAT make one pause....how many other products do

people use with sls in it, that no one has EVER called " pesticide " ???)

 

Hope that gives you some further info on this -

who is NOT impressed with anti-viral tissues and will RUN LIKE THE

WIND away from them! : )

 

does anybody have a list of all the *unsafe* chemicals found in the

different bathroom products we use daily? like shampoo, body wash,

toothpaste...(like sodium laurel sulfate)

 

thanx!

If you go to: www.ewg.org/reports/skindeep2

The Environmental Working Group's data base for toxins most people are

exposed to daily, I'm sure you'll find something you can use.
