Soft Scrub (Cleaner)

Soft Scrub is a mild abrasive cleaner with bleach and fragrances that may trigger sensitivities in some individuals.

You may have a sensitivity to Soft Scrub because:

Bleach Content – Sodium hypochlorite can irritate the skin, lungs, and eyes.
Synthetic Fragrances – These can trigger headaches, respiratory symptoms, or chemical sensitivity.
Preservatives – Some may disrupt your immune or detox systems.
Slower Detox Response – If your body clears chemicals more slowly, even light exposure can cause symptoms.
Repeated Exposure – Regular use over time can build up sensitivity, even if symptoms weren’t noticeable at first.

🧼 Switch to Gentle Cleaners – Use fragrance-free, non-bleach options like baking soda, vinegar, or castile soap.
🧽 Avoid for 8 Weeks – Take a break from all bleach- or fragrance-based cleaners to let your system reset.
💧 Support Detox – Stay hydrated and include detox-supportive foods like leafy greens, garlic, and lemon.
🌬️ Improve Airflow – Ventilate your home when cleaning to reduce inhalation of lingering fumes.
🧴 Use Gloves – Protect your skin from contact if you must use conventional cleaners occasionally.

Glutathione – Supports detoxification from bleach and chemical fragrance residues.
Vitamin C – Neutralizes oxidative stress and supports skin and respiratory healing.
Quercetin – Helps calm histamine and immune reactivity from fragrance or preservative exposure.
Omega-3 fatty acids – Reduce inflammation in skin, lungs, and joints.
Magnesium – Supports muscle and nerve function, and may help reduce tension triggered by chemical exposure.

Shared Spaces – It may be used in workplaces, gyms, public restrooms, or other communal areas.
Residue Transfer – You could come into contact with surfaces recently cleaned with it (like sinks or counters).
Airborne Exposure – Fumes from bleach and fragrances can linger in indoor air and ventilation systems.
Cross-Sensitivity – You may react to ingredients in Soft Scrub that are also found in other cleaners or personal care products.
Fragrance or Bleach Buildup – Repeated low-level exposure through multiple sources can trigger a reaction over time.
