WHY A NEW OR DIFFERENT APPROACH TO
HAND SANITIZERS?
Detersives are a new era approach to hand 'sanitizers’ which is a controlled word in Canada, which generally means SUPER harsh synthetic-petrochemicals and/or 60-95% alcohol, in order to qualify to be able to be called a HAND SANITIZER - these are the Gov’t rules.
But there may be several problems with this approach - besides promoting occupational eczema through repeated use of alcohol drying the sebum and natural oils then cracking the hands (making the person more susceptible to infection through the open/ exposed skin) and the toxic load some of these industry ingredients put on the user AND the ecology of our environment.
​
Here’s why we ask you to consider a new or different approach for hand cleansers, … because scientific and medical reports indicate that there are better long term options.
​
Alcohol on it’s own (with a few ingredients like glycerin etc.) may not work well enough for what is intended, and that’s to enhance the health of the user - at least that is what one would assume, yes!?
​
​
Let’s be clear, washing your hands with soap and water for 20-30 seconds, is simply the best for cleansing yourself free of bacteria, fungus, yeast, mold, virus’ and other germs, but if you are not near a sink, here’s where second-best comes in...
Our approach comes from extensive medical information from Swiss Doctor Dietrich Klinghardt, as well as from a qualified chemist at an independent testing bacteriology laboratory, and interestingly we have also had this feedback from several long-time nurses from our local hospitals here on Vancouver Island,
who say using alcohol on their hands all the time creates problems for them while not being most effective for sanitizing… so, based on a collaboration of thinking professionals, we’ve come up with a new approach that includes EXTENSIVE scientific and medical research and European standards regarding use of
other ingredients for sanitizing/ cleansing/ chasteners/ anti-septic/ detersives.
