Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an eco-friendly detergent composition containing a natural extract,

The present invention relates to a detergent composition for human body containing a natural extract, and more particularly, to a detergent composition comprising a plant-derived natural extract component and a method for producing the detergent composition.

In recent years, along with economic growth, the social trend of well-being seeking to live a healthy life by improving the standard of living has brought about changes in consumer culture that favor environment-friendly products. Chemical products including environmental hormones harmful to the environment and human body accumulate in the body to induce endocrine disruption and decrease immune function and are known to cause skin diseases such as atopy, and consumption demand of environmentally friendly natural products is increasing will be.

Soaps, shampoos, etc., which are generally used at home for kitchen detergents and human cleansing, are petrochemical products manufactured using petroleum-based synthetic surfactants and contain toxic substances such as environmental hormones harmful to human body, And pollute the water quality of the river through the wastewater to destroy the toxic as well as ecological environment.

Conventionally, as a method for solving the above problems, a product using some natural vegetable material is commercially available. However, since the use amount of natural materials is insignificant or a synthetic surfactant such as LAS which is a petrochemical raw material is used together, There is still a problem that causes skin diseases and contaminates rivers, thereby wasting the social costs required for water purification.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a detergent composition comprising a vegetable surfactant component and a natural medicinal agent excellent in antibacterial activity, which are environmentally friendly and harmless to human body.
