Clinique, Clearasil Acne Treatments Found to Contain "High Levels" of Cancer-Causing Chemical - Technology Org

According to an independent U.S. lab report, high levels of the cancer-causing chemical benzene have been identified in certain acne treatments, including products from Estee Lauder’s Clinique, Target’s Up & Up, and Clearasil owned by Reckitt Benckiser.

The U.S.-based independent laboratory Valisure has filed a petition with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), urging the recall of these products, an investigation, and the revision of industry guidance.

Estee Lauder shares experienced a 2% decline following the news.

Valisure detected benzene not only in Clinique, Up & Up, and Clearasil but also in Proactiv, PanOxyl, Walgreens’ acne soap bar, and Walmart’s Equate Beauty acne cream, among others.

The lab also highlighted the potential formation of benzene at “unacceptably high levels” in both prescription and over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide acne treatment products.

Reckitt responded, stating that the findings reflected unrealistic scenarios and maintained the safety of Clearasil products when used as directed.

Estee Lauder stated that Clinique employs benzoyl peroxide in one of its products, asserting that it is “safe for use as intended.”

What is benzene, why is it dangerous to humans?

The carcinogenic compound, benzene, has previously been identified in various consumer products like sunscreens, hand sanitizers, and dry shampoo, prompting recalls by companies including Procter & Gamble and Johnson & Johnson.

However, Valisure noted that the detection of benzene in acne treatment products differed significantly from previous cases, emphasizing that in benzoyl peroxide products, benzene originates from the benzoyl peroxide itself. Valisure’s tests revealed that certain products could exceed the FDA’s concentration limit for benzene by over 800 times.

Benzene is a colorless liquid with a sweet odor and is a natural component of crude oil. It is used in the production of various chemicals, including plastics, resins, synthetic fibers, rubber, dyes, detergents, and pharmaceuticals. While benzene has industrial applications, it is considered hazardous to human health due to its toxic properties.

Benzene is harmful because it is a known carcinogen, meaning it has been proven to cause cancer in humans. Prolonged exposure to benzene has been linked to various types of cancers, including leukemia and other blood-related disorders. It can enter the body through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact.

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies benzene as a Group 1 carcinogen to humans, indicating sufficient evidence of its carcinogenicity. The primary health risks associated with benzene exposure include the development of cancers, particularly in the blood-forming organs.

In addition to its carcinogenic effects, benzene exposure can cause other health issues, such as damage to the bone marrow, leading to decreased production of blood cells. Short-term exposure to high levels of benzene can result in symptoms like dizziness, headaches, and drowsiness.

Due to its well-established health risks, regulatory agencies, including the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), have established guidelines and permissible exposure limits to protect workers and the general public from excessive benzene exposure in occupational and environmental settings.

Best Dishwasher Detergents in India

In the aftermath of a mouthwatering meal shared with family or friends, what is the most time-consuming task? Cleaning the dishes, of course. But, unfortunately, it is sometimes so exhausting to scrub tough stains that one's full strength is drained. In this regard, any woman can benefit from investing in a dishwasher. By using it, you will save both time and effort. Nevertheless, it would be best to use high-quality dishwasher soap to ensure your dishwasher functions properly.

When it comes to efficiently washing dishes, pans, pots, glasses, and even flatware in the machine, we all know how strong a dishwashing detergent is. Comparing dish soap in India to dishwashing machine soap, no residue is left after washing. What makes this liquid extraordinary is the way it cleans your utensils!

Finish Dishwasher Power Detergent

We recommend Finish Dishwasher Power Detergent as the best product to clean your dishwashers effectively. It provides deep cleaning with pre-soaking action on the utensils. It has been recommended by Bosch as well. Prepare your dishwasher by placing the utensils straight along with the dishwasher powder detergent.

Using the dishwasher powder activates the enzymes that help remove the stains. The plates are cleaned and shine wonderfully by soaking stubborn stains in the detergent powder. For an easy, one-wash cleanup, let the utensils soak in water for a few minutes. The active enzymes that attach to the oil, stains, and proteins cause the oil to be removed.

Pros:

It enhances the appearance of utensils with a clean and shiny touch.

The aroma of the detergent is very pleasing.

Cons:

Make sure you use less of it as it leaves a white residue on your utensils if you use too much.

Fortune Dishwasher Starter Combo – Dishwasher Detergent

When it comes to a product that provides a complete cleaning package in one, this is the right choice. This Fortune Dishwasher Starter Combo Pack has received positive feedback from many customers. This product is affordable with 3 in 1 feature compared to the Finish dishwasher detergent in our list. The dishwasher specialises in cleaning Indian dishes. Indian kitchens use a lot of spices and vegetables, so it's challenging to clean leftovers from utensils. This Fortune dishwasher provides thorough cleaning.

This dishwasher will give your dishwasher durability, unlike some detergents that cause spills inside. In addition, there is no need to pre-wash utensils. As well, the dishwasher and utensils are free of food odours. You can use this dishwasher powder with any dishwasher brand.

Pros:

Activated enzymes remove the bacteria.

The utensils do not need to be pre-washed.

Cons:

Bosch Siemens Quick Descaler For Washing Machines and Dishwashers

When you want a dishwasher powder that smells great, is environment-friendly, and offers the best cleaning experience, then Bosch Siemens Dishwasher Detergent is your best option. This dishwashing detergent removes lime scales from hard water deposits, increasing the washing quality of the water as well as improving drainage.

With the utensils in the dishwasher, add the detergent and start the machine. Remove the utensils after 30 minutes and clean the dishwasher with the powder.

Cascade Complete ActionPacs Dishwasher Detergent

There are many positive reviews for Cascade Complete in India, including the #1 Brand recommendation. The price of this product is higher than those of the other products on our list. However, although it is a bit pricey, it will last a long.

The action packs dissolve quickly in water and bind to the stain particles on the plate with powerful enzymes. As a result, the ultra-shine that results from the cleaning process lasts for hours. Also, there is nothing complicated about using the pacs.

Crystale Finish Dishwashing Salt

There is no doubt that Crystale's various products are synonymous with excellence. Regarding dishwasher space, a Crystale salt can be a good choice for cleaning dishes and utensils. With this dishwashing salt, the hard water is softened by the water-softening mechanism. There are usually places in urban areas where water TDS is high.

After cleaning the dishes, the salt settles the white residuals on the dishwasher's warm side. In addition to dishwashers, it is ideal for water softeners as well. In dishwashers, the larger granules quickly dissolve in water and prevent limescale buildup. By improving the dishwasher's life, you can prolong its life with effective cleaning.

Pros:

A pocket-friendly option.

Good performance when it comes to dishwashing.

Cons:

There is room for improvement in the packaging.

Applying the rinse aid to dishes ensures a shiny finish. In addition to its drying function, it goes out when the process is completed.

Following the evaporation of the water, it prevents spots from appearing. So, besides making your dishes shine, it also fights against spots and marks. Along with cleaning away residue left over from detergent usage, it also ensures moisture-free results. Once the dishes are washed, you can immediately put them in the cabinet.

Pros:

The average filling lasts more than two weeks.

Provides a shiny finish to utensils.

FAQs

Can we use regular kitchen detergents in dishwashers or not?

No, it is not recommended to use regular kitchen detergent for washing the dishwasher. Dishwasher detergents contain ingredients that are both dishwasher-friendly and effective at cleaning the vessels. In addition, it does not cause any damage to the metal parts of the appliance. With regular detergents, however, this may be different.

Which one is the best dishwasher detergent out of powder, gel, and tablet?

In the dishwasher detergent world, there is nothing like the 'best'. Each type has its advantages. The user must decide which type best suits their needs based on the factors discussed above in the article.

What is detergent residue? How can it be avoided?

In addition to their advantages, dishwashers also have some disadvantages. In all dishwashers, detergent is usually left on the vessels after cleaning. The residue left behind by detergent on dishes is called "detergent residue.".

Although it cannot be avoided entirely, it is always better to re-rinse the utensils with plain water after detergent washing to ensure any residue is completely removed.

So I can't edit this to show what it is exactly, but I basically just got shamed by a Facebook "friend" for offering to share this link to get laundry supplies for my birthday. So now I'm miserable and that wasn't what I'd wanted to happen at all.

So if anyone would like to cheer me up, this is my family's Homeless Supplies list. I need as much of the laundry and disinfectant stuff as I can get. Clothes for me (or even my mom, because she still needs pants) would be a huge help, as I lost 40 pounds last year and most of my stuff is too big or it's full of holes. Food is much appreciated by all three of us.

Can't help? Reblog. Don't care/don't want to help? Don't be an asshole about it. Just ignore me or block me or whatever. But I am thankful to everyone who has helped, everyone who continues to help us, and everyone who is inspired to help. It's basically a waiting game with disability at this point for us to get housing, so all I can do is wait and hope.

But yeah. If you can help, or even just reblog, it would remind me there are good people in the world, and I sorely need that as much as I need anything on the list.
