274>You may have heard of it, its a chemical called Triclosan and its found in most liquid soaps, anti-bacterial soaps, deoderants, toothpaste and even cosmetics. However research has shown that this stuff harms human cells, and destroys good bugs as well as the bad and causes anti-biotic resistant bugs to thrive. ANother finding is that it produces a cancer-causing carcinogin called dioxin to be released when this chemical reacts with UV light and water.
How can we avoid this stuff if its in almost everything?
Reply:Go natural! Make your own soap or buy organic soap. There are many plants in nature that native cultures used to use in the past to clean themselves.
Reply:It%26#039;s also being found in surface water I think... I generally look for products that don%26#039;t have triclosan, and there are a surprising amount of products without it. I tend to use antibacterial hand sanitizer which is ethanol based (alcohol) which does the same thing, kills good and bad bacteria...
