@jonas.westh: Toothpaste: Aquafresh has titanium dioxide, the white pigment in paint. The EU banned it in food in 2022. Also sodium lauryl sulfate (the same detergent in Dawn dish soap), saccharin (first made from coal tar), sorbitol (sold as a laxative), PEG-8 (a petroleum chemical), carrageenan (labs inject it into rats to cause inflammation) and Red 30, a dye that isn't even allowed in food. Every fluoride tube carries a warning: swallow more than you brush with, call Poison Control. Old-school tooth powder is just baking soda, salt, mint. Moisturizer: CeraVe Moisturizing Cream: petroleum jelly, a plastic gel (carbomer), silicone, phenoxyethanol, EDTA and a quat from the same chemical family as fabric softener. Its ceteareth-20 can carry 1,4-dioxane, a likely carcinogen that never has to be on the label. Tallow is just beef fat, you can also use olive oil on your skin, coconut oil etc. Laundry: Tide Original: petroleum detergents, borax (the EU says it may damage fertility), propylene glycol (used in antifreeze and airplane de-icing fluid), diethylenetriamine (an epoxy hardener), an enzyme that gave detergent factory workers asthma, a glow dye, three more dyes and fragrance. Soap berries are a dried fruit people in India and Nepal have washed clothes with for centuries. Dog food: Purina Dog Chow: corn is ingredient #1, then meat and bone meal and poultry by-product meal. "Animal digest" is animal tissue broken down with chemicals or enzymes and sprayed on for flavor. Menadione (vitamin K3) is banned in human supplements. Garlic oil, when the ASPCA lists garlic as toxic to dogs. Plus Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6 and Blue 2. The colors are for you, not your dog btw. Kibble only started in 1957, with Dog Chow, before that dogs ate real food (meat). Lip balm: ChapStick Classic is 45% petroleum jelly, plus mineral oil, paraffin (candle wax), carnauba (car wax), silicone, an ingredient used to push things into your skin, fragrance, camphor, titanium dioxide, Red 6 and Yellow 5. Lip balm used to be beeswax and tallow.
