Original Note:

Antibacterial soaps can have negative effects such as interfering with thyroid function due to their active ingredient triclosan. https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/antibacterial-soap-you-can-skip-it-use-plain-soap-and-water https://www.conehealth.com/services/urgent-care/5-reasons-to-stop-using-antibacterial-soaps/
