How Most Laundry Detergents Can Harm You and the Environment

When it comes to health, safety and the environment more consumers are becoming much more savvy in their purchases of household cleaners and detergents. Unfortunately, it can be difficult for even the most informed consumers to find out just what ingredients are in certain products, and how they might impact the environment.

You will hardly find a complete list of ingredients on the labels of most commercial laundry detergents available today. And, like us, you are probably wondering why. To start, companies are not required by law to list their ingredients, and they claim that their formulations are confidential. Secondly, the ingredients they use are subject to change - sometimes due to reformulation or the use of alternative ingredients to reduce costs.

Be we can tell you what we do know about most laundry detergents -- they contain artificial fragrances and compounds made from petroleum. Many do not degrade in the environment, and may have toxic effects on both fish and mammals. Additionally, they often can cause allergies and skin or eye irritation.

Here's a list of ingredients commonly used in the leading brands, along with a description of how they impact you and environment. We must warn you, what you are about to read is rather alarming.

• EDTA (ethylene-diamino-tetra-acetate) - A class of synthetic, phosphate-alternative compounds used to reduce calcium and magnesium hardness in water. EDTA is used to prevent bleaching agents from becoming active before they're immersed in water and as a foaming stabilizer. EDTA does not readily biodegrade and once introduced into the general environment can re-dissolve toxic heavy metals trapped in underwater sediments, allowing them to re-enter and re-circulate in the food chain.

• Optical brighteners - A broad classification of many different synthetic chemicals that, when applied to clothing, convert UV light wavelengths to visible light, thus making laundered clothes appear "whiter." Their inclusion in any formula does not enhance or affect the product's performance in any way; they simply function as an optical illusion to trick the eye. Optical brighteners do not readily biodegrade, are toxic to fish when washed into the general environment and can create bacterial mutations. They can cause allergic reaction when in contact with skin that is then exposed to sunlight.

• Petroleum distillates (also naphthas) - A broad category encompassing almost every type of chemical obtained directly from the petroleum refining process. Any ingredient listed as a "petroleum distillate" or "naphtha" is firstly a synthetic, and secondly, likely to cause detrimental health or environmental effects.

• Polycarboxylates -- Petroleum based -- not biodegradable and similar in chemical structure to certain plastics and acrylic compounds. Because they are relatively new synthetic phosphate substitutes, their effects on human and environmental health remain largely unknown. Tests show they are non-toxic, and do not and generally settle out with the sludge during water treatment, until further study, use of this ingredient is not recommended.

• Polyethylene glycol (also PEG) - An anti-redeposition agent, PEG is a polymer made from ethylene oxide and is similar to some non-ionic detergents. While not generally considered toxic, large doses are lethal to animals. PEG is slow to degrade and is synthetic.
