Another good reason to use natural baby shampoos

The Journal of Dermatology has released a new paper finding that ingredients in the most popular baby shampoos contain chemical preservatives that can increase the risk of contact dermatitis in your baby (an inflammation of the skin that varies from mild irritation to rashes and open sores).

“Quaternium 15 is present in an alarmingly high number of baby products, making exposure and sensitization at an early age increasingly common,” said Sharon Jacob, M.D., co-author of the paper and physician at the Department of Medicine and Pediatrics at Rady Children’s Hospital. “This is a concern because repeated exposures to sensitizing chemicals, especially in early life, can cause a person to develop allergic reactions over time. Therefore, we advise parents to choose products without quaternium 15 and other formaldehyde-releasing preservatives whenever possible.”
