These Air fresheners Contain Over 80 Known Toxic Chemicals

September 11, 2018 by Anya 3 Comments

We all love that divine smell of air sprays, but that sweet smell could lead to a whole range of health issues. One of such products is Febreze. According to EWG the Febreze products score a D or an F. (http://www.ewg.org/guides/brand/6531) Air fresheners cause lung cancer, asthma and respiratory issues, skin allergies and irritation, development and reproductive toxicity.

 

Did you know that when the air spray was put to an air pollution test, it released 87 toxic ingredients?

Using Air fresheners is like smoking. Air fresheners cause lung cancer

Did you know that both tobacco and air freshener companies don’t disclose all ingredients they use in their products? In fact, there are  over 600 ingredients that are used to make cigarettes.  and over 3,000 chemicals used to make air fresheners.  Scary!  When you see the word  “fragrance” as one of the ingredients, that means it’s a mixture of several dozen to several hundred chemicals.

Translation – Air fresheners contain the same dangerous ingredients that cigarettes, 

There are eleven common ingredients from air fresheners and cigarettes. Seven of these chemicals cause cancer, 6 are toxic to your respiratory system, 2 are toxic to your reproductive system and 2 are toxic to your cardiovascular system.

This is what I use 

Let’s take a look at the ingredients:

-Acetaldehyde – Known as a carcinogen, toxic to reproductive health, immunotoxin, non-reproductive organ system toxin, skin, eye and lung irritator

-“Fragrance” – One of the three ingredients that is actually disclosed, it’s a neurotoxin, immunotoxin and allergen. Fragrances can be comprised of any number of over 3,000 ingredients. Some have never been tested for safety.

-Propylene Glycol – May cause cancer, allergies, toxic to immune system, builds up in the system, non-reproductive organ system toxin, is classified with “enhanced skin absorption” and I can irritate the skin, eye and lungs.

-Methyl pyrrolidone – Toxic to the reproductive system and development, allergen and immunotoxin, non-reproductive organ system toxin and skin, eyes and lung irritator.

-Butylphenyl methylpropion al – allergen, immunotoxin and skin, eyes and lung irritator

-Ethyl acetate – cause developmental/reproductive toxicity and neurotoxicity. Skin, eyes and lung irritator

-Geraniol – Cause allergies, organ system toxicity and skin, eyes and lung irritation

-Benzaldehyde – neurotoxin, and skin, eyes and lung irritator

-Ethylhezanol – Skin, eyes and lung irritatant and reproductive toxin

This is what I use 

 

Detox your body from these toxic substances

Air fresheners cause lung cancer and more that’s why you must detox. The most effective and inexpensive way to detox your body is to take spirulina. According to many recent scientific studies, spirulina (find it here) helps support healthy detoxification of  built up toxins from the body by binding to  them. Thus, these toxins are  carried out of the body through natural processes of elimination.
