Finally "Triclosan /Triclocarban" has been banned by FDA as of 2016 Sep 2nd

Triclosan/Triclocarban has been used in many "Anti-Bacteria" consumer goods such as hand wash, shampoo, shower gel etc.

We have been warning about this dubious "anti-bacteria" ingredient that was banned by EU & Minnessota back in 2014.  Finally the US FDA has recognised the fact and announced that it will also be banning this ingredient in consumer goods.  You may read the news on their website here.

Antibacterial Test Video

Want to see the antibacterial effect of N-Shield's Nanosilver Solution? What happened (after 2 days) to a piece of bread soaked in water and another piece that was sprayed with N-Shield Nanosilver Solution? You can see that the bread in water only has turned moldy and the water was fouled whereas the one sprayed with N-SHIELD was still looking fresh and the water was crystal clear in this video. 

Things to look out for when buying Nanoslver solution

When sourcing for nanosilver solution, it is not just the concentration that matters.  In fact it is more important to find out what is the size of the nanosilver particles in the product. You may find out WHY SIZE MATTERS here.

Did you know that Triclosan has been banned by EU and the State of Minnesota?

You must be wondering what has it got to do with us?  FYI Triclosan is an active "antibacterial" chemical used in many of daily products around us such as hand wash, soap, body wash, cosmetics including tooth paste.  It has been found that its "antibacterial" effect is not only a suspect but most importantly it has been linked to hormone disrupting effect and various health issues. EU has banned it's use in food since 2010 and has announced total banned from consumer goods on 2015 Jun 25th (to view the news article click here), whereas Minnesota has announced banning it since May 2014 (to view the news article click here). For a safer alternative you may wish to consider N-Shield Sanitizer for Hand.
