There is nothing
better, in my opinion, than walking into a restaurant and smelling freshness: coffee,
foods being prepared and maybe a hint of lemon.
Consciously or unconsciously, we use our sense of smell to judge what
our experience may be like.
Diffuses Essential Oils into the air... |
Synthetic scents
contain harmful chemicals. A study published in the Archives of Environmental
Health linked chronic exposure to the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air
fresheners to headaches and depression in new mothers and diarrhea and earaches
in their babies.
Harmful VOCs in
air fresheners include benzene and formaldehyde, which are byproducts of the
manufacturing process. Benzene exposure can damage bone marrow, which can
decrease red blood cells and affect immunity. Long-term exposure to airborne
benzene has also been linked to increased risk of anemia and leukemia.
Formaldehyde, a known carcinogenic neurotoxin, can irritate the eyes, nose,
throat and skin.
Most air
fresheners—even some labeled “all natural”—use phthalates as fixatives. Easily
inhaled or absorbed through the skin, these chemicals accumulate in the body’s
fatty tissue and liver, where they can remain for decades. High phthalate
levels have been shown to cause low sperm counts and reproductive damage to
male rat fetuses.
BUT
WHAT CAN I DO? Easy! Insert Essential Oils into your life! The better the grade/quality, the better
results you will have. Meaning: if you
buy your oils in a store, you are “probably” getting perfume grade instead of something
that is therapeutic-organic-and non-adulterated.
Using essential
oils in your home can allow you to “treat” what ails you and your family at the
same time, sharing an aroma that is inviting, and welcoming to your
guests. Essential oils are good for you,
most are safe on pets and small children.
