CHEMICALS FOUNDS IN DIAPERS AND WIPES
May 18, 2008
ARE YOU WONDERING WHAT CHEMICALS MAY BE LURKING IN YOUR CHILDS DIAPER AND WHICH ONES ARE SAFER FOR BABY? Read More Here…
Conventional Baby Diapers contain 2 chemicals of concern.
The first is Dioxin. When manufacturing the diaper one of the ingredients they use is bleach, and bleach creates Dioxin, which can be found in trace amounts in conventional diapers.
The EPA considers Dioxin to be amongst the most toxic carcinogen. Obviously not the most ideal ingredient to be added into a baby product.
On that note, Dioxin is banned in most countries except the United States. Note, this is the case with MANY products in the U.S. they are safe until proven otherwise. In most other countries (European countries for example) it is the other way around. A product is considered unsafe until proven otherwise.
Finally, once again because babies (especially newborns) systems are so small and developing so rapidly they are most susceptible to the effects of these chemicals.
