• Dirty Labs is the superhero of ‘a little goes a long way’. Their line is incredibly effective, all while using the smallest amount.
• 42¢ per load for Dirty Labs vs 32¢ per load for a ‘free & clear‘ pod option from a popular brand name (still very toxic). Your health is worth the 10¢.
• Toxic residues from conventional dishwasher detergents remain on dishes even after the rinse cycle and are then ingested.
• Rinse aids can help remove these toxic residues, but they, themselves, also leave behind their own toxins.
• Dirty Labs laundry detergent is also featured in The Collection.
• Alcohol ethoxylates - Damages the epithelial barrier of the gut, even if ingested in small amounts (problematic since residue on dishes, glassware, and silverware is ingested). Found in rinse aids.
• Benzisothiazolinone - Same family as MI/MCI, highly toxic. Skin/eye/respiratory irritant.
• Benzotriazole - A hormone disruptor
• Formaldehyde - A known carcinogen
• Sodium Hypochlorite - Bleach (no more needs to be said here).
Pods are simply terrible for your plumbing and the environment.
Additional bad actors in dishwasher detergents:
Phthalates, 1,4-dioxane (ethoxylated ingredients can be contaminated with 1,4-dioxane), PEG’s, ‘fragrances’, dyes, quaternium-15, bronopol, DEA, MEA, TEA, and diazolindinyl urea... not a fully inclusive list... but certainly paints the picture that you may be ingesting more than just your food and drinks.
Be vigilant in selecting a dishwasher detergent that is labeled non-toxic and is plant/bio-based to avoid these chemical compounds and toxins. Dirty Labs is free of all of these toxins, is USDA Bio-Based Certified, and was awarded the 2021 EPA Safer Choice Partner of the Year.
