In reviewing your household items:
- Were you surprised to find out the toxicity rating of your household products?
- For the Ajax Dish Soap: seeing the powder form may cause allergy or asthma symptoms or breathing difficulties if inhaled scared me. For someone who lives with asthma and loves doing dishes I might have to re-consider what soap I use and how often I wash dishes.
- Clorox Disinfecting Wipes: this product had no significant health impacts other than possible minor skin irritation.
- Did you decide to change any of your consumer behaviors based on your findings?
- I never really thought about the impacts of potential products while cleaning that can influence my asthma. Now I wonder, the potential impacts as a young kid in high school who cleaned houses for a living, I am sure I took any many chemicals from all the various household cleaning products we would use.
- Should everyone know about these risks and why don’t they?
- Yes, everyone should know about these risks and furthermore those that willing sell harmful products should be held accountable. I do think all the blame is with the individual (consumer) and we are told everything in moderation you’’ll be fine, but what about lifetime accumulation??
