Dry chapped hands have become part of our world wide pandemic experience. I suffer from extremely sensitive skin and suffer from the drying agents in the hand sanitizers provided in public establishments. I have listed some "healthier" choices here. My favourite being Dr. Bronner's organic.
According to the American Association of Poison Control Center reported, in early five months of 2020, 9504 alcoholic hand sanitizer exposure cases in children under the age of 12 years and recognized that even a small amount of alcohol can cause alcohol poisoning in children that is responsible for confusion, vomiting and drowsiness, and in severe cases, respiratory arrest and death. Furthermore, frequent usage of said hand sanitizers has reported increased chance of antimicrobial resistance and chance of other viral diseases.
While there does not seem to be an end in sight, I have tried these organic and environmentally friendly choices in an effort to stay as healthy as possible. For those with skin issues these suggestions may be of help.
