Dr Axe: Fake Fragrances (in soap) Cause Cancer, Child Autism, Birth Defects, Allergic & Toxic Bodily Reactions, Asthma & Other Breathing Difficulties

In an article recently published in "Food Is Medicine" Dr Axe really puts teeth into an argument Cosgrove & Lewis have been making for years: FAKE FRAGRANCE OILS MAY BE DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH!

"Fragrance oils", also called "synthetic scents" and "parfum" are used to add scent to soaps and cosmetics. C&L uses some fragrance oils, (and we clearly label those products as such) but most of our products are made with pure all natural Essential Oils instead.

Essential Oils are all natural, derived from plants. "Fragrance oils", synthetic scents, and "parfum" are not natural. They are made from any of more than three thousand industrial chemicals, many known to cause serious health problems.

Dr Axe: "I really want to emphasize how important it is that you and your loved ones avoid the dangers of synthetic scents as much as possible. I also want to remind you again about what’s so much better than those fake smells — essentials oils."

Unfortunately some soap shops and their affiliated resellers claim their products using fragrance oils are "all natural", and their employees will tell you that TO YOUR FACE. But, that's a lie - a VERY DANGEROUS LIE!

For example, they might tell you that a soap named "Black Raspberry Vanilla" is "all natural". But here's a fact: There is no black raspberry vanilla essential oil! This scent is a mixture of man-made synthetic chemicals that Dr. Axe considers dangerous. Here, I'll prove it. [This is the actual Black Raspberry Vanilla scent] they use, and [this is a list of the chemicals in it.]

WAKE UP! STOP BELIEVING THE LIES! FRAGRANCE OILS ARE NOT NATURAL, AND NEITHER ARE THE PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN THEM!
