Ingredients With Gray Areas | Not Always Good or Bad (A Simple Guide)
There are a lot of ingredients people ask about, so I put this page together to break them down in a simple, honest way based on the research I’ve done.
I always encourage you to look into things for yourself instead of blindly following anyone’s opinion (including mine). Think of this as a starting point to help you understand what you’re using and where you might want to look a little closer.
Some of these ingredients I’m comfortable with, some I avoid, and most fall somewhere in between depending on things like quality, how they’re used, and overall exposure.
At the end of the day, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer.... just better information so you can decide what feels right for you and your family! :)
