these bathroom toxins are throwing off your hormones! use these products instead...
TOXINS: BATHROOM EDITION 🛁 we're in contact with too many toxins a day from the moment we wake up to the moment we go to sleep. these toxins are in common bathroom products and can be totally throwing off your endocrine system which leads to weight gain, hormone imbalances (like missed or painful periods), and impairing your immune system. you might think "it's just a little bit of soap" but the truth is all of these products add up, especially with the environmental toxins + cleaning product toxins + clothing toxins+ food toxins.⚠️⚠️⚠️⠀
⠀
the common chemicals found in your typical soaps, shampoos, lotions, etc are sulfates, parabens, fragrance, polyethylene glycols, aluminium, xenoestrogens, bpas, phthalates, herbicides, triclosan, dioxin, etc. these endocrine-disrupting chemicals throw off your hormones and interfere with the proper elimination of estrogen in your body which can lead to pcos, endometriosis, fertility issues, painful or missed periods and more.
i've put together an easy guide for you to easily reference! i know it can be overwhelming, but just start little by little to make the right switches and eliminate toxins from your life.
