If you ve been following the recent news and our own posts for the last few years it turns out that antibacterial soaps are not the safe soaps for babies and kids they ve claimed to be.

Antibacterial soap safe for babies.

This stuff is the bee s knees. A few weeks ago the fda announced a bold new position on antibacterial soap. Food and drug administration has raised concerns about the functioning of tricolsan which is the germ killing ingredient that s found in more than 70 percent of antibacterial body washes and liquid soaps used for bathing and cleaning kitchenware. Antibacterial soap kills most bacteria.

The product boasts a perfect epa rating of 0. Plain soap and water make bubbles and slippery skin so the germs and dirt can slide off hands and down the drain. Clean smart offers a baby safe toy disinfectant that helps kills the germs from the cold and the flu. A key ingredient in antibacterial soaps triclocarban has the potential to harm babies if mothers are exposed to it while nursing new research shows.

There is new evidence which suggests there may be health impacts from the long term use of triclosan. Safe for kids pets and food surfaces. A note on disinfecting baby toys. Babies are notorious for putting everything in their mouths.

When soap in supermarkets was in short supply we bought this unknown antibacterial valderma soap online. Federal health regulators are trying to find out if the ingredients that make up the soap are actually doing more harm than good. We have to give it a 5 plus rating as it is so good. The second reason for the uproar over antibacterial soap is that regardless of whether it works there is still a question of whether it is totally safe.

The agents in antibacterial soaps are also under scrutiny because there has been no scientific evidence to show that antibacterial soap is more effective than regular soap and water or that they are safe for long term use. Manufacturers have to show that it s both safe and more effective than simply washing with conventional soap and water. With all this current hand washing any other soap we have used before would have melted away and been broken into small pieces in a week or so. And the fragrance free option really is fragrance free.

Clean smart s product is registered with the united states environmental protection agency epa as a safe disinfectant for daycares across the country and even approved for nicu use.
