Air fresheners are the most common household item that almost all Americans have in their homes. So, every time you think that your house or apartment smell bad, you don’t hesitate to go and grab that air freshener and start spraying it all over the place. No one can deny that the smell of these air fresheners is pleasant but its impact on our health is not!
In fact, these household items that contain some type of fragrance or “perfume” are lurking with toxic chemicals such as phthalates which were found to negatively influence the production of male hormones.
In 2008 another study was published and found that 5 out of six tested products for toxic chemicals, where three of which were air fresheners, are known carcinogenic.
Normally, the household cleaning industry would never reveal this toxic product in the ingredients of its products that’s why you’d better stay away from using them for the sake of promoting your health and that of your loved ones! Wondering about the best room or home refreshers, opt for fragrance-free products such as essential oils and natural cleaning products.
