Canada is the only country in the world that decided to put a ban to Triclosan. The main problem with this harmful ingredient is that it penetrates through our skin and enters into the blood which leads to hormonal imbalance. Colgate still ensures us that their products are safe, despite all proofs and researches. So, it is up to you to decide if you will use, their products again or get rid of them.
