We live in a world where we are bombarded with artificially scented products. The chemicals that are often used to formulate these fragrances are toxic to the human body over time. There are many people who are allergic to heavy scents. This is because these often contain chemicals that cause irritation to the nose, eyes, and throat. These chemicals are found in artificially scented products. Many of the chemicals used formulate certain aromas are actually petrochemicals derived from natural gas and petroleum. Petrochemicals are like many other ingredients in synthetic fragrances in that they build in the body over time. Repeated exposure has been linked to endrocine disruption and several types of cancer. Chemicals from the phthalate family are also commonly found in synthetic fragrance. They go by the names (DEP) di-ethyl phthalate, (DBP) di-n-butyl phthalate and benzyl butyl phthalate. Phthalates are known endrocrine disruptors and suspected carcinogens. They are often used in perfumes and body care products such as scented lotions. They are inhaled as well as absorbed through the skin. The chemicals enter the blood stream and are absorbed into the body via the lungs. One study linked di-ethyl phthalate to birth defects and learning disabilities in children. The production of artificially scented products has increased substantially just over the past few years. With this increase weve also seen a leap in allergies. This is not surprising as thousands of chemicals are used to make these synthetic scents. Common symptoms of exposure include ear, nose, and throat irritation, and nausea and headaches. Read the labels of the products you buy. See any of the above mentioned chemicals, heavily scented, a list of ingredients a mile long, multiple unrecoginzable chemical names then try and avoid.
