are your wellness products keeping you well?
Everyone is coming down with something this season — cold, flu, allergy, COVID-19 … If you find yourself in need of wellness products to help your family feel better, make sure the products you choose are safe.
Sounds crazy, right? But many store-bought wellness products contain ingredients that could cause more harm than good. Here are a few harmful ingredients commonly used in wellness products that you’ll want to stay away from:
Camphor: linked with potential liver damage, seizures, and skin sensitivity1
Menthol: linked with eye and skin irritation2
Petrolatum: linked with cancer, skin irritation, and allergies3
