+---
+
+This is a recipe for an effective dishwasher detergent that uses non-toxic ingredients.
+
+Commercial dishwasher detergents often contain ingredients that are harmful to health. [A recent study](https://www.jacionline.org/article/S0091-6749(22)01477-4/fulltext) found that these ingredients can cause significant gut epithelial inflammation, potentially leading to leaky gut.
+
+For that reason, we've formulated this simple dishwasher detergent that is both highly effective at cleaning dishes, and uses easily available non-toxic ingredients.
