Personal hygiene and endometriosis (I)
The wet wipe business ::
Should we wet wipe or should we not?
Following the heavily marketed idea “from germ removal to skincare”, we discuss why wet wipes are neither a valuable, nor an irreplaceable part of your daily life.
Wet wipes are made from non-woven fabric composed of polyester or viscose fibers. However, the composition of wet wipes also contains various chemical compounds, which can negatively affect the environment and human health.
A research study by the Danish Consumer Council THINK Chemicals has found that household cleaning wipes may also contain harmful chemicals, presenting potential negative effects on the human body.
They tested 36 cleaning wipes available on the Danish market and rated them A, B or C depending on the chemicals found within the wipe. Just five of the wipes attained an A-rating, meaning they were free of problematic chemicals. Twenty products received the lowest rating of C. These lowest scoring products contained allergenic preservatives or, very worryingly, suspected endocrine disrupters.
Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that disrupt the functioning of our sensitive hormone system. Some endocrine disrupting chemicals have been linked to health conditions such as infertility and diabetes, alongside many others.
