Scented Cleaners Create Lung-Reaching Nanoparticles
A study led by Brandon Boor discovered that cleaning products, both conventional and botanical essential oil-based, release nanoparticles when their scent compounds react with indoor air. These particles can travel deep into the lungs within minutes of use. To minimize exposure, the team suggests using unscented products, running exhaust fans, and avoiding ozone-generating devices during cleaning.4 sourcesSee all sources
