7 Toxic Reasons to Ditch Dryer Sheets According to the author of The Brain Wash, here are the seven most common chemicals found in dryer sheets and their effect on the central nervous system:
1. Alpha-Terpineol causes central nervous system disorders. Can also cause loss of muscular coordination, central nervous system depression, and headache.
2. Benzyl Alcohol causes central nervous system disorders, headaches, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, central nervous system depression, and, in severe cases, death.
3. Camphor on the US EPA’s Hazardous Waste list. Central nervous system stimulant, causes dizziness, confusion, nausea, twitching muscles, and convulsions.
4. Chloroform on the EPA’s Hazardous Waste list. Neurotoxic and carcinogenic.
5. Ethyl Acetate on the EPA’s Hazardous Waste list. Narcotic. May cause headaches and narcosis (stupor).
6. Linalool causes central nervous system disorders. Narcotic. In studies of animals, it caused ataxic gait (loss of muscular coordination), reduced spontaneous motor activity, and depression.
7. Pentane causes headaches, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, and loss of consciousness. Repeated inhalation of vapours causes central nervous system depression.
Yikes!!! Right?!
So here’s the real deal…don’t pick up a box of dryer sheets or fabric softener and expect to see a list of ingredients like you would a box of cereal. That is because, there are no laws in place, which require the manufacturers of these products, to list all the chemicals used. Often times what you will see listed, is something along the lines of, “biodegradable cationic softeners”. These so-called softeners that make our clothes fluffy and static-free, are toxic chemicals which build up in our body and over time can wreak havoc on our nervous system.
The toxins in dryer sheets are intense. Chemically sensitive people need to stay away from them. Using them is a double-whamy because the toxic chemicals enter your body two ways:

The toxins in dryer sheets are intense. Chemically sensitive people need to stay away from them. Using them is a double-whamy because the toxic chemicals enter your body two ways:
- Through your skin – when you wear clothes dried with dryer sheets, your body warmth and moisture “dissolves” the
chemicals. Your skin then “takes them up” – they are absorbed directly into your bloodstream through your skin. It’s one of the fastest and easiest ways people get poisoned with cancer-causing chemicals. - Through your brain – the synthetic fragrances in dryer sheets enter through your olefactory system and plug up
receptor sites in your brain -Receptor sites that are sitting there waiting for healthy substances to enter get plugged up, so that when the healthy substances do come by, the receptors cannot take them up. There are many other negative health effects as well.
