Is cancer high hair caused by detergent?
Detergent contains primary carcinogens. "in fact, the risk of detergent is very low. Generally, it can be washed twice. Some media has reported the residual experiments of three commonly used detergents on the market. After rinsing with running water for one, two or five times, the bowl residue of detergent is detected. In daily life, if we want to reduce the residue of detergent, we should be vigilant against the production of non-standard and odorous detergent. Three kinds of detergent to minimize the use of ◎ cheap bulk detergent Shenzhen Consumer Council once tested the detergent on the market, the results found that 5 restaurants used in bulk detergent label missing, prone to poor use, harmful substances over-standard problems, ◎ aromatic detergent researchers at the University of Melbourne Australia have conducted a national representative of the population survey. The researchers believe that aromatic products release a range of harmful chemical pollutants. ◎ liquid turbid, layered detergent under normal circumstances.
"detergent is a harmful essence, which not only hurts your hands but also causes cancer!"
"No matter how many times the detergent is washed, there is residue, and it won't come off at all!"
"detergents contain primary carcinogens and must not be used!"
……
Detergent can be said to be a friend of the lazy. No matter how many dishes and chopsticks are buried, as long as a few drops of detergent are dropped and soaked in water, they will all be as bright as ever. But is it true that there are always rumors about cleaning delicate cancer on the Internet?
Is detergent a friend of lazy people or a pest?
Unless you kill a whole bottle!
Let's first understand how detergent works: the reason why it can remove oil mainly depends on the cooperation of hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups in detergent surfactants.
According to the principle of similar miscibility, hydrophobic groups can be dissolved with oil and hydrophilic groups can be dissolved with water. When using detergent, the hydrophobic group can wrap the oil, expose the hydrophilic group and easily separate the oil from the bowls and chopsticks.
And people's worry about detergent mainly comes from the residue of its ingredients. In fact, the risk of detergent is very low, and its main ingredient is the surfactant mentioned above. according to the "Food Safety National Standard Acute Oral toxicity Test", the surfactant belongs to the low toxic and non-toxic grade.
If you want a person weighing 60 kilograms to die from acute poisoning caused by detergent, you need to eat at least 60 grams of surfactant.
If you insist on injury, it may be "injured hands". Long-term direct contact with detergent will lead to the destruction of protective lipids on the surface of the skin and make the skin dry.
Therefore, when you use it, it is recommended to wear a pair of gloves or choose a detergent with skin care essence.
How many times does it take to rinse the dishes with detergent?
Generally, the standard can be reached by washing twice.
Some media have reported the residue experiments of three commonly used detergents on the market. The experimenter poured three kinds of detergent into the bowl and rinsed with running water for one, two or five times to detect the residual detergent. The residue is as follows (see figure below):
According to the national standard GB14934-1994, the detergent residue should be less than 0.1mg/cm2. Judging from the experimental results, it is generally possible to rinse twice to reach the standard, so we need not worry too much.
Of course, the less residue, the better for your health. If you want to reduce the residue of detergent every day, you can dilute the detergent before use, then soak the dishes and chopsticks with diluted water for two or three minutes, and finally rinse repeatedly with flowing water.
It should be noted that the detergent used in the experiment is produced by regular manufacturers, so even if there is a small amount of residue, there is no need to worry, daily we should be vigilant against the production of non-standard, odorous detergent.
Three kinds of detergent should be used as little as possible
◎ 's cheap three no detergents in bulk
The Shenzhen Consumer Council has conducted experiments on detergents on the market and found that the labels of bulk detergents used in five restaurants are missing, of which one has 47 times the total number of bacteria and two have strong alkaline pH values, which are easy to hurt the skin.
Many people want to be cheap and buy cheap bulk "Sanwu" detergent, which is easy to have the problems of poor use effect, excessive harmful substances, and bring burden to the environment.
◎ aromatic detergent
Researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia conducted a nationally representative population survey that included 1098 random data.
After analysis, it was found that 33% of people who were exposed to common aromatic products developed symptoms such as asthma attacks, migraines, dizziness and nausea. In this regard, the researchers believe that aromatic products will release a series of harmful chemical pollutants.
◎ liquid turbid, layered detergent
Under normal circumstances, detergent should be uniform, non-layered and transparent. If the liquid is found to be turbid, layered and has a strange smell, it means that the product does not meet the standard or has gone bad for too long.
It is worth noting that alkaline detergents such as detergent, detergent and toilet cleaning agent had better not be used with 84 disinfectant. The main active components in 84 disinfectant are weakly alkaline and strongly oxidizing. once mixed with other alkaline detergents, the disinfection effect will be weakened.
When the alkalinity is too strong, it may also produce chlorine, this irritating gas is easy to cause serious respiratory tract damage, has a strong irritation to the eyes, mucous membrane and skin, and may also lead to chlorine poisoning and death.
Qualified detergent is generally not harmful to health, and many daily necessities that may have health risks are easy to ignore.
These daily necessities
There may be a risk of cancer.
◎ cosmetics containing talc powder
Talc powder is ground from talc, but in the process of talc mining, it has the risk of cross-contamination with asbestos, a kind of carcinogen. At present, talc powder is widely used in ceramics, papermaking, plastics, makeup and other fields, often used in foundation, sunscreen, talcum powder and so on.
At present, the international control of talc is becoming more and more strict. in 2017, talc was listed as a Class III carcinogen by the World Health Organization, and just five years later, talcum powder containing asbestos was listed as a Class I carcinogen. Talc powder used in the vulva is classified as Class B carcinogens, while others are still Class III carcinogens.
For the sake of safety, people should try to avoid buying products containing talcum powder.
◎ hair dye
At present, hair dyes belong to three categories of carcinogens, and their carcinogenicity is uncertain, but research in the International Journal of Cancer points out that the use of hair dyes is associated with a higher risk of breast cancer.
Compared with women who did not use hair dye, women who used permanent hair dye within a year had a 9% higher risk of breast cancer. As the frequency of use increases, so does the risk of cancer.
In this regard, the researchers believe that it is related to the chemical composition of hair dye, which may cause normal endocrine disruption, or itself is a carcinogen, long-term exposure can easily lead to an increased risk of cancer.
Synthesis of camphor pellets by ◎
The camphor balls sold on the market can be divided into natural and artificial ones, in which natural camphor balls are extracted and processed from the branches and leaves of camphor trees. They are colorless, white lens, non-toxic and fragrant.
Most of the synthetic camphor pills are made of dichlorobenzene, which is pungent and toxic. The World Health Organization has listed them as three types of carcinogens.
Dichlorobenzene will not only stimulate the eyes and upper respiratory tract, but also inhibit the central nervous system, which is easy to induce liver and kidney injury.
