The Coronavirus has slowly become an unfortunate, yet popular topic in our world, and it's important that we take the necessary steps to educate and prepare ourselves and our families for what could come. While washing hands is said to be one of the best precautions to keep yourself safe, we want you to keep in mind just how many ways our lives can be effected by what what we come in contact with - and that includes the contamination of our clothes and laundry. |
1,4-Dioxane Found in paint and varnishes; EPA listed as a human carcinogen. |
Nonylphenol Ethoxylate Found to mimic estrogen and disrupt human and animal endocrine functions. |
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate Linked to cancer, neuro and organ toxicity, skin irritations and endocrine disruption. |
Naphthotriazolystilbenes (Whew, that one's a mouthful!) Linked to developmental issues. |
While doing a load of laundry may be part of your daily or weekly cleaning routine, when it comes to disinfecting our clothes, towels and bedding - it can be quite the opposite, especially if someone in your home is sick. In fact, just one germ infested item in your washing machine will spread to 90% of your other items, even if they are not washed in the same load.
