Skin and Hair Care Products??

[Gus's Mama]

For the life of me, I can't find where I read this....

Is it true that sodium/ammonium laureth sulfate comes from wheat?

And what about the citric acid? Is it really derived from mold that is grown on bread?

Thanks for your input,

Deb

Hi Deb,

I can't say know about the other ingredients.

Citric Acid is considerd safe. If Citric acid was made with wheat, it must be listed as such [Citric Acid (Wheat)]. I don't think I've ever seen a citric acid that has been labeled as wheat.

I make laundry and homemade bar soap and did a little research on Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Laurel Sulfate as well as Sodium Laurel Sulfoacetate. Although the 'safety' of these products has been argued both pro and con with regard to how they're processed (derived), these products have a basis in coconut oil. I suppose there could be a percentage that are derived from wheat, but I believe here in the US, most (if not all) come from coconut.
