We have been using the Basic H product from Shaklee now for a few months. Replacing regular cleaners for this healthy alternative. Aside from it being the most versatile cleaning product I have ever used, and being safe enough to drink, this product is 100 natural and completely biodegradable.
This sent me on a search to see what it is made of, and I came across a forum that was asking the same question as me. What they had come up with was this:
The materials listed are:Deionized WaterPareth 25-7 (Surfactant)Linear Alcohol Alkoxylate (Surf.)Dowicil 75 (Antioxidant)Hydrochloric Acid (pH Adjuster)Butylated Hydroxytoluene (Antiox.)D & C Green #5 (Colour)Methyl Paraben (Colour Preserv.)
This seems to be in line with a “List of NOs” site on the official Shaklee site:
- NO Parabens
- NO Triclosan
- NO Phthalates
- NO Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
- NO Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES)
