Fragrance Free Manual
Up to 30% of people report having adverse reactions to a petroleum
chemical (petrochemical) named "fragrance". Furthermore, people living with
MCS
report having allergy-like (sometimes severe) reactions after being
exposed to very low levels of fragrance ~found in most everyday products.
Up to 72% of asthmatics are also affected. Even if you aren't reactive to
these synthetic chemicals, over time they may accumulate ~potentially
increasing the risk of sensitization. & To make matters worse, these
synthetic fragrances are made to stick around ~taking multiple washes to
remove!
