(Medical-NewsWire.com, March 13, 2015 ) Westendorf, Tirol -- Soap has played a vital role throughout history in preventing the spread of diseases caused by bacteria, viruses and fungi. It continues to perform the same function, but unlike early homemade products, today's soaps contain a variety of chemicals that can actually harm skin. In an effort to obtain better protection, many have transitioned to antibacterial soap and hand sanitizers but they often contain detrimental triclosan.
"The Food and Drug Administration has published numerous reports that call into question the efficacy of antibacterial soaps and hand sanitizers, especially those containing triclosan," said Helga Riedmann, founder of Mountainbreeze Naturals. "No medical studies have demonstrated a direct correlation between the soaps and reduced rates of infection."
While hand sanitizers and antibacterial soaps have become a staple in homes and businesses, scientific research is beginning to acknowledge that many natural, organic and botanical solutions are just as effective in protecting against infection and they don't interfere with the body's natural defenses.
One of the areas in which new research is particularly important is in the field of antifungal soaps. Many botanicals are natural antifungals with the ability to prevent and treat fungal skin infection without compromising natural immunity or adversely affecting humans or the environment.
Tea tree oil is a natural antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral. It's known for its ability to address the three most common types of fungal infections – athlete's foot, jock itch and ringworm. Tea tree oil is also effective for candida, a yeast type infection that often accompanies fungal infections. Many modern soaps and sanitizers rob the skin of essential nutrients that help the body fight infection naturally.
Fungi, bacteria and viruses are everywhere. It's impossible to avoid them and many are actually beneficial. Hand sanitizers and antibacterial washes attained popularity with those working in crowded workspaces where exposure to illness-causing agents increased the risk of sickness and lost time, a practice that's actually been utilized since ancient times.
The Babylonians manufactured soaps, body washes and scrubs from natural products as a defense against an extensive array of pathogens. They were popular among ancient athletes and tea tree oil was among one of the most popular ingredients due to its effectiveness against fungal, bacterial and viral agents.
Mountainbreeze Naturals is continuing the practice of utilizing natural and organic ingredients in its antifungal soap and body wash. Created with botanicals from around the globe and featuring the power of tea tree oil, the company's products provide consumers with a natural alternative to chemical solutions that can cause damage to the skin and immune system.
