Lower the Chemical Burden in Your Home
Posted by Monica Stanton on October 6, 2009
Protect your immune system and it will protect you. Your immune system is constantly being bombarded by the many free radicals and toxins produced by synthetic chemicals in everyday products. We experienced the horrible effects of toxic chemicals in our home when our 12-year old daughter’s immune system began to attack her kidneys (a detoxifying organ). Tests showed she had toxic levels of several environmental pollutants in her body. We later learned the Environmental Protection Agency says the home is up to 5X more polluted than outdoor air. And this pollution can affect people in different ways.
We found out that today’s products, like the flame retardant in your couch, mattress and sleepwear, additives in food (over 3,000), lotions, shampoos, etc… had in them chemicals that have not been tested for toxicity. Over 83,000 synthetic chemicals have been introduced into our daily environment since the end of WWII, and less than 20% have been tested for toxicity. Even “organic” baby products have been found to have formaldehyde and 1,4-dioxane (even sounds scary) in them, and this is being applied to a baby’s skin, where it is absorbed into the body. You’ll have to google those words to get the full impact of their damaging effects on health.
So what can you do? YOU HAVE CONTROL OVER WHAT GOES IN YOUR HOME, where you spend most of your time. Get better health by cleaning up the air and surfaces of your home from synthetic chemicals. It’s easy, simple, brings wellness, and SAVES YOU MONEY. Get more info HERE.
For example, compare $23.96/gallon for store-bought all-purpose green cleaner to 22 cents/gallon of this wonderful green all-purpose cleaner that is 99.95% natural. (Did you know that to have the words “natural” on a product, labelling laws only require 15% natural ingredients — and dirt qualifies as “natural?”)
The products in the sidelines in the video are used by the Ocean Alliance and Whale Conservation Institute because it is so biodegradable. FEEL the difference in your home! Not only has our daughter been helped by these products, but so has the rest of the family’s allergies. And the amazing thing is, they work. I was skeptical. But when I tried them, I couldn’t stop telling others about them. And it’s being used — for two administrations now — for the White House and the U.S. Naval Observatory where the U.S. Vice President lives.
