To arrive at this data, the researchers carried out in-depth analyzes of 34 different types of plastics and their chemical compositions. In this way, it was possible to see that there are at least 11 substances in hair-specific hygiene products that interfere with weight.
In this research it was also pointed out that the conditioners have these same substances. These would be frequently used components still in beverage bottles, kitchen sponges and hair products.
In addition, these are just the substances that interfere with overweight, as the study found more than 600 others in shampoos. And you can check all of them by reading the full study that was published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology.
The study emerged to demystify some thoughts about obesity, in order to conclude that other elements, in addition to food, contribute to the case. Therefore, just like shampoos, other chemical components used in our daily lives also have the potential to interfere with our metabolism.
However, in the case of plastics, shampoos and conditioners, it is already being proven that the use of these products influences the creation of fat cells. Furthermore, it has been seen that these cells tend to grow rapidly. Therefore, shampoo has a direct effect on metabolism.
While these studies continue until there is a consensus in the scientific community, perhaps the most advisable thing is to rethink how much we wash our hair. Anyway, if this article was interesting to you, don't forget to share it with your friends and family.
