Products in your daily environment that may contain triclosan
Triclosan is found in thousands of products and is ubiquitous in our environment. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) put out a tip sheet listing consumer products that often contain triclosan. To avoid triclosan in personal care items, look for certified organic or EWG Verified products.
Several years ago, major corporations, including Johnson & Johnson and Proctor & Gamble, moved to phase out triclosan from personal care and cleaning products. However, it is still found in some shaving products, body washes and Colgate Total toothpaste.
