Do you suffer from allergies, asthma, chronic dermatitis, eczema or psoriasis and don't know why or how to control it? Better yet, did you know that most people would just chalk it up to symptoms of seasonal allergies? Do you ever notice that your symptoms are better on some days and worse on others? Did you know that the environment could have little to do with how you're feeling? You could be chemically sensitive and not even be aware of it! If you can recall the times of our parents (or even grandparents for the younger readers!) household cleaners and products consisted of very few ingredients. Lemons, vinegar, lard, even the old fashioned waxy soap bars can clearly be remembered in closets and cupboards and bathroom sinks alike. Ironically enough, you didnt hear too much about allergies or skin problems back then - especially when cleaning the house. Today, we are hearing more and more stories about autism, ADD, and other ailments such as shortness of breath. Childhood allergies have exploded into the mainstream so much so that you're actually ABNORMAL if you don't suffer from one allergy or another. People have to realize that this is NOT JUST the environment to blame! Household products contain Toxins that can and do affect your health. Your home is as lethal as a toxic waste dump and the problem is - YOU choose to make IT THAT WAY! Products that contain bleach, ammonia, phosphate and sodium benzoate to name a few of the basics, are destroying your immune system and ONLY YOU have the power to stop it from happening! Pick up a bottle of any product you have in your home and chances are - you won't be able to pronounce half the ingredients listed! We try to follow a simple rule in our house - if you can't pronounce it - don't use it! Researching healthy alternatives to cleaning products is your first step. Products that are environmentally safe and are all-natural have been around for more than 20 years, yet only recently have people begun paying attention to what they have been saying all along - common household products do have the power to harm your immune system. Your Children don't have to suffer from "childhood ailments". By simply switching the products you use in and around your home - your family (including your pets!) will become healthier, have less illnesses and just have a better general well being overall. |
