Hey guys, welcome back to the Digest This podcast. In today's bite of knowledge, we are talking about

toxic chemicals in our laundry detergent. Now, our skin is the largest organ in our body,

and it absorbs anything and everything we put on it, not just in it. And we all wash our clothes,

our kids' clothes, dishrags, our bed sheets, our bathroom towels, and of course the most

delicate thing we wear, our underwear. So the soap we use to wash these items rub off on our

skin, and then our skin absorbs it. If that wasn't the

case, rash breakouts, itchiness, and allergy type symptoms would not occur in people. But just because

you don't experience noticeable symptoms from laundry soap doesn't mean it's not affecting you.

Common symptoms of toxic laundry detergent

range from headaches, rashes on the skin such as bumps, swelling and redness, dry and itchy

skin, sneezy, itchy, stuffy, or runny nose or other allergy-like symptoms such as watery eyes.

And those are just, quote, noticeable symptoms. But there are many other

side effects such as endocrine disruption, lung inflammation, and organ complications just to name a few.

So today, I'm going to share what toxic ingredients to look out for and what to avoid, as well as safer alternatives when

it comes to laundry detergents. So be sure to share this episode with your family and friends

so that they can be aware and stay in the know too. The great thing about sharing a podcast like

this is that you don't seem like you're nagging.

I get to do that for you.

You're just politely sharing and sending along helpful information without being that person, if you know what I mean.

If you're on a budget but still need to care for your gut health like me, I feel you.

It can be costly, but at the same time, I am willing to do and pay anything if it can benefit my digestion.
