Ingredients to Avoid in Hand Sanitizer
When picking a hand sanitizer, the first step is to read the label and understand the active and inactive ingredients. Active ingredients are those that kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria, viruses, or fungi. The most common active ingredients in hand sanitizers are ethyl alcohol (ethanol) and isopropyl alcohol. However, some harmful ingredients could be lurking within the product.
1. Methanol
Methanol, also known as wood alcohol, is a toxic substance that should not be used in hand sanitizers. It’s absorbed through the skin and can cause a variety of health issues, such as skin complications, nausea, headaches, and even blindness or death if ingested.
2. Benzene
Benzene is a carcinogen, meaning it can lead to cancer. It’s commonly found in petroleum products, and some hand sanitizer manufacturers have been found to use it as a substitute for ethyl alcohol.
3. Triclosan
Triclosan is a synthetic pesticide commonly added to soaps and personal care products for its antibacterial properties. However, it has been associated with hormone disruption, liver damage, and the development of super-germs.
4. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and Sodium Laureth Sulfate
These ingredients are used to make soaps and detergents foam, but they can cause skin irritation and dryness, and even lead to lung diseases and eye irritation.
