That “fresh” scent in your candle, lotion, or laundry detergent? 👃🏻
In Chinese Medicine, synthetic fragrances can burden the Liver — the system that helps process hormones, keep your cycle smooth, and even regulate things like digestion, headaches, and emotions!
Modern research agrees: chemicals like phthalates can mimic or block estrogen, disrupt testosterone, and throw off thyroid balance. The result? PMS, mood swings, fertility struggles, and sluggish metabolism.
✨ Swap Ideas:
* Beeswax candles with essential oils
* Wool dryer balls + essential oil
* Baking soda + vinegar for cleaning
* Fragrance-free or naturally scented body care
Smell good, feel good — and keep your Liver Qi (and hormones) happy! 👍🏻
