Are You Burying Your Head in the Sand? Wake Up and Take Charge of Your Health!

Here’s a simple checklist to help you in avoiding some of the most prevalent toxins today:

Look For:

Organic whole foods whenever possible.

Organic and natural personal care products. The fewer chemicals listed on the bottle, the better.

Natural and/or biodegradable household cleaners. Try making your own—you’d be surprised to see what a little baking soda or vinegar can do!

Natural and biodegradable pesticides. Some are made with a base of orange extracts or even flowers. A little cayenne pepper can do wonders as well!

Natural materials and fibers when decorating your home. Simply ask for “environmentally safe products.”

Avoid:

Conventional and processed foods—they can contain pesticides, antibiotics, chemicals, fumigants, and growth hormones.

Especially avoid controversial chemicals such as sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene glycol, diethanolamine (DEA), triethanolamine (TEA), and deodorants that contain aluminum.

The fumes and residues from conventional cleaning products can be highly caustic and have, in fact, been the cause of thousands of deaths.

The fumes and residues from conventional house paints, wallpaper, flooring adhesives, and some new carpets can create havoc with your health.

Poisons are meant to kill life, period. Why expose yourself to any harmful chemicals when there are so many other healthier natural alternatives that do the job just as well and oftentimes even better!
