25 Things You Probably Didn’t Realize Can Cause Cancer

7. Using a certain laundry detergent

No, we are not suggesting to stop doing your laundry (it could lead to other health problems), but changing your laundry detergent. The Environmental Working Group pointed out that some laundry detergents available on the market contain 1,4-dioxane, a dangerous chemical that was linked to cancer. Before buying anything, make sure to check the labels.

8. Going to the dry cleaner

As it appears, leaving your laundry to the dry cleaner isn’t a good option either. There were several reports from the EPA that pointed out perchloroethylene usage. Also known as perc, this chemical is used by most dry cleaners in our country, and, as studies suggest, it may cause leukemia.

Opt for a dry cleaner business that doesn’t use dangerous chemicals.
