• Toxic Fragrance: Hidden Indoor Air Pollution
    Feb 16 2026

    Are your favorite scents causing indoor air pollution? Discover the hidden toxic fragrance chemicals lurking in your home.

    In this episode, we unpack the alarming truth behind the "fragrance" label on everyday household and personal care products. We explore how a massive legal loophole allows companies to hide hundreds of synthetic chemicals—including VOCs and endocrine-disrupting phthalates—under a single word. You will learn how these compounds create a "smog" inside your house, accumulate in the body over time, and bypass safety regulations. Finally, we share practical steps to detoxify your daily routine and explain the critical difference between "unscented" and "fragrance-free".
