I’ve always had my doubts about the safety and effectiveness of commercial hand sanitizers, but when the FDA made their ruling regarding antibacterial soaps, I knew it was time to look into how to make an all-natural and no alcohol version of hand sanitizer. Spoiler alert – it’s super easy and takes about 30 seconds. Learn how…
The announcement from the FDA regarding antibacterial soaps was sure to be a precedent to hand sanitizers. Straight out of the mouths of the FDA’s Director of the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, Janet Woodcock, MD, “Consumers may think antibacterial washes are more effective at preventing the spread of germs, but we have no scientific evidence that they are any better than plain soap and water. In fact, some data suggests that antibacterial ingredients may do more harm than good over the long-term.”
Of course, nothing is recommended above good ole fashioned washing your hands with soap and water, but sometimes you are in a place where it’s not feasible and hand sanitizer is a necessary alternative.
