The danger of ethanol-based hand sanitisers

Ethanol-based hand sanitisers are almost everywhere you go these days largely due to government regulations requiring businesses to maintain COVID-safe environments. However, these alcohol-based sanitisers come with significant risks.

Ethanol-based sanitizers are highly flammable and have been linked to serious accidents, including fires that caused severe injuries.

Moreover, they pose a unique challenge for recovering alcoholics—even those who have been sober for years. Research indicates that alcohol can be absorbed through the skin, potentially triggering the metabolic cascade that leads to relapse.

If you suffer from a skin condition, have open wounds, or take medications for ailments like depression, did you know that many sanitisers and cleaning products could worsen your condition or interact negatively with your medications?
