You may wonder why body wash is on this list for cleaner options. What we put on our bodies actually gets absorbed into our systems. Our skin is our largest organ, we need to be mindful of what it is absorbing. If you look at some of the ingredients in typical body care items such as lotions, body wash, sunscreen, make-up, etc it’s no wonder people are having a harder time with hormone regulation. If you still prefer to purchase products, try using the “Healthy Living” app and use the feature where they rank the cleanliness of products, you can actually scan the barcode and most products will pop up.
