Many chemicals penetrate the skin extremely fast Dieter. One of the best known for that is DMSO which is quite a useful painkiller topically applied. But anyway, mix one drop of mint oil in with some DMSO and put a drop on the ground. Stand in it with your bare foot and you will taste the mint in your mouth in a few seconds.

In another life I worked in laboratories and sometimes with radioactive labeled biochemical molecules. You could work in a laminar flow and with double gloves on and when you went for a pee half an hour later you could measure the radioactivity in your urine which was not at all good since we thought we had taken every possible safety precaution.

Triclosan does penetrate the skin somewhat. Not a lot or you would immediately die or turn infertile at the least. But the effect builds up with repeated use.
Not only that but you can smell the triclosan when you apply the pump. This can only mean that it also gets in your lungs and from there into your blood stream is a logical step. Again the amounts and effects are small but it builds up over time.
And then people who use this soap regularly will wash their hands with it before a meal. Bingo.

To me there is a huge difference between cleanliness and hygiene. Hygiene is to do with health and for me that means having large numbers of good bacteria present everywhere. (healthy ecology) In recent years doctors have used fecal transfers to cure diseases thought incurable such as autism. Not often, because the thought of such an act sickens most people. Also because it is cheap and brings no money to big pharma. It works better than anything else.

Cleanliness to me is a ritual, almost religious concept and aims for sterility and that often has very bad effects. For example, one can pick up a super lethal bug most easily in hospitals that aim to be sterile environments with plenty of triclosan being used.

These last two paragraphs to explain why I would not touch liquid soap with a ten foot pole.

They could have but almost all liquid soaps contain
Triclosan.

John, what I don't understand is how soap applied to the outside of the body can cause infertility. Is it that the active substances penetrate the skin?
