What’s hiding in your detergent?
The soap in your sink might be damaging your gut

Good morning friends,
You clean your dishes to keep your family healthy…
But what if your detergent is doing the opposite?

The silent threat in your soap
Most mainstream dish soaps contain alcohol ethoxylates —
a chemical linked to gut damage and microbiome disruption.
They don’t wash away completely.
They linger on your plates, cups, and cutlery…
And slowly end up inside you.
Some families have removed these products
And saw allergies, bloating, and even skin issues improve — in just seven days.
Profit over people
The detergent industry continues to prioritise:
Profit
Convenience
Cheap chemical formulas
All wrapped in single-use plastic
And marketed as "safe" for your family.
But here’s the good news:
There are better options.
Safer, non-toxic alternatives that are:
Effective
Gentle on your gut
Eco-friendly
You just need to look for them.
Check your labels. Make the switch.
Your health will thank you.
