The protective layer in your gut can be damaged by the residue from rinse agents in dishwashers.
Researchers from the Swiss Institute of Allergy and Asthma say this could lead to “the development of chronic diseases”.
A whole host of different conditions are linked with this layer being damaged. This includes food allergies, gastritis, diabetes, obesity and many more.
They highlight that “numerous studies have shown, many additives and chemicals that we encounter in everyday life can damage these layers.“
Similar protective layers are also present on the skin and in the lungs.
As a result, they deem this a public safety issue, stating “It is important to inform the public about this risk”.
Could this signal that the chemicals we are using everyday are leading to the chronic disease epidemic?
