Understanding Harmful Scents
When it comes to fragrance oils in your home or place of work, safety should be your top priority. Sure, you can buy those $6 plug-ins that smell good for three days, or those tiny candles by the register that are tremendously harmful to all household pets (as well as your own long-term health). Unfortunately, not all products on the market are safe. Here are some harmful substances often found in lower-quality fragrance oils:
- Phthalates: Commonly used to extend the life of scents, phthalates are linked to hormone disruption and reproductive issues.
- Parabens: These preservatives prevent bacterial growth but are known to mimic estrogen, potentially leading to hormonal imbalances.
- Formaldehyde: Often used as a preservative & is a known carcinogen (promotes cancer development).
- Synthetic Musks: These compounds are not biodegradable & can accumulate in the body & the environment, posing long-term health risks.
- Petrochemicals: Derived from petroleum, these can be harmful to both health and the environment.
