Next time you walk down the cleaning product aisle at a hardware or grocery store, carefully inspect the ingredient lists on the various products. Whether you look at a disinfectant, floor cleaner, or bathroom spray, you\u2019ll find that many of the labels contain chemicals that are quite harmful to the human body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleaning product companies tell you that their products are necessary for keeping the home free of bacteria and germs. Sprays, wipes, powders, liquids, and more promise to improve your home and health by removing grime and dirt. Many of these products, including Pine-Sol, exhibit fresh or clean scents that smell similar to lemon or pine<\/a>. What these companies don\u2019t tell you is that their products can contain toxic chemicals. Well, they may explain this, but in the fine print on the label, which people seldom read thoroughly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Do Cleaning Products Affect Your Health?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Popular cleaning product manufacturers include chemicals in their products that may negatively impact your health. For example, it\u2019s possible for these products to cause endocrine disruption, pregnancy complications, allergies<\/a>, birth defects, and cancer. Women\u2019s Voices for the Earth (WVE) published a report that commissioned an independent laboratory to test 20 popular cleaning products<\/strong>. The results indicated that the toxic chemicals they detected were not disclosed on product labels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reality is that manufactures do not always have to disclose the ingredients in their fragrance blends in cleaning products. These signature scents are often copyrighted, meaning that disclosing them would allow other people or companies to produce the same sense. The same applies for perfumes and other products where \u201cfragrance blend\u201d is on the label. Many known allergens are often included in these fragrance blends, but also in products marketed as \u201cfragrance-free.\u201d This is to say that harmful chemicals may hide in your cleaning products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
