Harmful substances

Through all kinds of products that we use every day we get harmful and hormone disrupting substances. Products such as shampoo, body lotion, toothpaste, washing-up liquid, hand soap, makeup, but also detergent, dishwasher agents and more, are substances such as parabens, aluminum, alcohol, s (l) es and triclosan.
This is burdensome for organs such as the liver and intestines, because these organs have to work the substances from our body. This allows us to get all kinds of complaints in the long term.

Fortunately, there are also many natural products that are free of harmful substances.
We use various DIY recipes from the internet and we are grateful for all kinds of brands that make natural products.
