Household Products

Household cleaners often release toxic chemicals like ammonia, bleach, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air, creating harmful fumes that can settle on dust particles and persist indoors. Many of these chemicals act as endocrine disruptors, such as phthalates and triclosan, interfering with hormones that regulate metabolism and fat storage. This can make gaining weight easier and losing it more difficult while also increasing the risk of respiratory issues and long-term health problems. Switching to natural, non-toxic cleaning products can help reduce exposure to these harmful toxins and support overall health and weight management.
