Is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate Safe?

[@Lved6]

SLS is also in toothpaste. Years ago, I developed a horrible rash all around my mouth. Drs had no clue how to get rid of it. I researched it and found that many people have the same reaction to SLS. I switched toothpaste and the rash went away 😁

[@laurastrobel718]

Thankfully we have alternatives these days, toothpaste with this in it has always irritated my mouth since I was a kid. No wonder it was hard to get kids to brush their teeth back in the day😒

I had a college professor that told us about this back in 99. She said the same things that they're putting in your shampoo, is in your industrial floor cleaner, which is also in your toothpaste, which is also in your face cleaner, which is also when the detergent to wash your car. She says it all causes cancer.

Y'all are overreacting though. These are used in things we usually wash straight off and very effective in deterring oil and dirt. It's a minority that will have a reaction to sls's, which is valid too

One of the main disadvantages of sulfate-free shampoo is that it lacks foam, since sulfate is responsible for the thick foam and clean feeling that accompany the use of classic shampoos. That is why we often think that the more foam, the better the shampoo washes the hair.

[@JesusSaves-fw5bi]

Faith in nature shampoo is good for foaming with no SLS or parabens.

[@mhpjii]

Try _real_ soap! It has more foam suds than you have ever seen.

SLS was the cause of dry scalp long ago for me. I began to research ingredients in shampoo and made the change that restored my scalp.

[@amma2x310]

It can also cause skin sloughing (that nasty peeling of layers of filmy skin) in your mouth when it's in mouthwash and toothpaste. Have had this happen with a popular "zero" mouthwash and a toothpaste that contains "white strips ".

[@RobCLynch]

I assumed that SLS was banned in USA and Canada, but not here in the UK. I also heard that it was carcinogenic. It's annoying that the pharma and food companies have literally removed SLS in certain countries, but not where it isn't banned.

[@papacrow5905]

The US only bans good things so all you have are their poisons.

[@susanmoore6382]

I also have problems with toothpaste- which the majority burn, etc. I switched to Biotene toothpaste. It comes in blue mint, but the Green gentle mint does not burn whatsoever. You will not regret buying it.

[@metaforcesaber]

It's also should be noted that there are lots of compounds that are very similar to SLS and you can see the similarity in their names. Biotene and Weleda make some great toothpastes that don't contain any SLS nor related chemicals.

[@SirChocula]

I just looked up Biotene and it's horrible - contains both Fluoride & sucralose. I'd avoid those 2 like the plague if I were you. Weleda seems safe though.

[@anacapritropics1913]

Thank you, Dr. Berg! I've known for years that sodium laurel sulfate is what makes soaps "bubbly" but had no idea of this facet. As an aside, I was told to use the hottest water after washing parts of a nebulizer I was given for asthma & to rinse those parts in that hottest water for 30 seconds. I had thought it was merely to get rid of the residue's slipperiness. From your lesson, I am guessing there is more to it than that. Gads! Thanks again.

If you do not wash your body with SLS for 1 hour, and normally wash it off after 1min or so, there is no risk. I do love the natural soaps like Bronner's etc. but they are quite expansive

Yes it is also in all the NHS hand cleansers and does not do my skin anygood so all my soaps etc were gathered up and given to the NHS surgery staff.

...But what about the benefits of microstresses on the body in relation to small amount of SLS exposure in the average soap? The only reason I've seen so far not to use products containing SLS would be the adverse effects they have on people with dry skin conditions. I'm on the other end of the spectrum; the natural oils in my skin and hair clog my pores on a regular basis, and in my experience with sulfate-free products I'm left with extra oily skin/hair.

SLS completely destroyed my scalp. I've been suffering most of my life with itchy, flakey, inflamed scalp. Went to dermatologists, tried countless expensive shampoos, treatments... thought I had an autoimmune disease or seborrheic dermatitis. Then one day I randomly bought a shampoo bar because I needed to travel and had limited liquids allowance. And BOOM, after ONE SINGLE wash, my scalp wasn't itching anymore, my hair didn't need ANY extra products to detangle or smooth them. I was shocked. So I checked the ingredients and the only thing that this shampoo didn't have, were SLS. Checked all my old shampoo bottles and ALL had it. So for me, SLS is the worst ingredient that caused me years of suffering, bleeding scalp and destroyed and friend my hair. It's a perfect thing too - 95% shampoos use it, so you need to buy more products to counteract the damage (like hair masks, anti-dandruff shampos, hair treatments, etc...). Won't be using anything with SLS ever again!
