Thank you for this interesting article - This is so true... “We seem to be accepting as a society that it’s acceptable to load up our next generation with chemicals in an unregulated manner and hope they’re not bad. We need to change that entire culture.” states one of the authors of the study, R. Thomas Zoeller, professor at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.

About two years ago I stopped using regular soaps and shampoos. I use a bar soap which contains only saponified organic extra virgin coconut oil and water for my soap and shampoo. I noticed a huge difference in the way I feel, but it took about a year to feel that way. I sleep better, usually, more soundly.

Whatever is in the soap is absorbed through the skin and would build up over time. It makes sense that you would get the full benefit over quite a period of time of using a more natural product. I am trying cider vinegar as a cleanser - I was a bit shocked at how grubby my face was when I first used it - took ages to get all the grime off! I will look out for that soap it sounds lovely ;-)

I purchase it online from soapforgoodnesssakes, no affiliation.

This is a link directly to the 12 pack of bars I buy about every two to two and half months.
