Are SHYN Products Toxic

What Does Toxic Mean? 1. The Scientific Definition The word “toxic” means something is harmful or poisonous to living organisms. Toxicity is always about dose and exposure. Even water and oxygen can be toxic if you consume too much. 2. Everyday Perspective According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 3 million people worldwide suffer poisoning each year from unsafe chemical exposure. But here’s the context: that includes industrial chemicals, pesticides, and household misuse. Most cleaning products, when used as directed, don’t cause health issues. 3. Dose Makes the Poison Paracelsus (the “father of toxicology”) said: “The dose makes the poison.” Example: Table salt: Safe at a pinch. Toxic if you eat a cup. Caffeine: Safe in coffee. Toxic if you drink 100 cups at once. Cleaning products: Safe on surfaces. Toxic if swallowed, inhaled in large amounts, or left on skin for hours. 4. How SHYN Fits Can you eat SHYN products? No — just like any detergent or cleaning solution, they’re not food. Will they instantly burn your skin? No. SHYN products are designed to be safe for hands, except Mould Pro, which breaks down organic matter (so gloves are recommended). Are they safe to use in your home? Yes — when used correctly, they’re no more “toxic” than dish soap or regular bathroom cleaners. 5. The Real Purpose SHYN uses chemicals for a reason: To break down grime that plain water and scrubbing can’t. To save you time, money, and effort. Not all SHYN products are chemical-based: Positive Chi Disinfectant and SHYN Paste are natural. Degreaser, Grime Lifter, Mould Pro are chemical-based, but not highly toxic — they just do the heavy lifting.
