Dishwashing might seem like a harmless daily task, but if you’re using chemical-based dish wash bars or liquids, you could be exposing yourself to harmful substances that affect both your health and the environment. Many people opt for liquid dishwashing products, but they often come with downsides, such as being packaged in plastic, requiring more water to produce, and leaving behind residue that can harm your skin and waterways.
At Goli Soda, we believe in offering a safer, natural alternative—our All Natural Probiotics Dish Wash Bar. Bars, unlike liquids, use less water to make, are easy to rinse off, and come with the added benefit of no plastic packaging. Let’s explore the dangers of chemical-based dishwashing products and why switching to natural solutions is a better choice for your skin and the planet.
How Chemical-Based Dish Wash Bars Harm Your Skin
Most conventional dishwash bars are filled with harsh chemicals designed to cut through grease and grime. While they may be effective, they come with risks:
- Irritation and Dryness Common ingredients like sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and artificial fragrances can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving your hands dry, irritated, and more prone to cracks. Prolonged exposure to these chemicals can lead to dermatitis, eczema, and allergic reactions. According to Healthline, SLS is a known irritant, especially for sensitive skin.
- Residue That Gets Into Your Body Many chemical dishwash bars leave a residue on your dishes, even after rinsing. When you use these dishes for eating or drinking, traces of chemicals like triclosan and synthetic fragrances can enter your body. Studies have shown that triclosan, an antibacterial agent, can disrupt your hormones and has been linked to various health issues, including antibiotic resistance (FDA). This is particularly concerning for families with children, as kids are more sensitive to chemical exposure. Using a natural dish wash bar, like our All Natural Probiotics Dish Wash Bar, ensures your dishes are free from harmful residues, making mealtime safer for everyone—especially young children.
Impact on Waterways and the Environment
Chemical dishwash bars also harm the environment. Every time you rinse your dishes, harmful chemicals are washed down the drain and into our waterways. These chemicals can:
- Disrupt aquatic ecosystems: Surfactants, phosphates, and other toxic ingredients can harm marine life by altering their reproductive systems and growth patterns. According to EPA, phosphates lead to nutrient pollution in water bodies, causing harmful algal blooms that deplete oxygen and kill aquatic organisms.
- Contribute to water pollution: These chemicals aren’t easily broken down in nature, leading to long-term water pollution that affects not just marine life but also human health.
