NATURAL CLEANING
Did you know air fresheners, laundry detergents and fabric softeners are on the list of some of the most dangerous household chemicals? Not to mention all the nasty cleaners we keep under our sinks to spray all over our homes! These every day products are wreaking havoc on our bodily systems. Most cleaning chemicals are linked to cancer, hormone disruption, reproductive issues, neurotoxicity and many other health issues.
Don't fret - there is a better way!
Switching over to low-tox cleaning doesn't have to break the bank, it is actually more cost effective! It's better for your health & better for the environment.​
TOXIC CLEANERS TO AVOID
AIR FRESHENERS
The fragrances (even those marked unscented) can trigger asthma and allergies. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) reviewed 2,000 household cleaning products in 2012 and found that 53% of cleaning products contain ingredients harmful to the lungs AND 22% of cleaning products contain chemicals known to cause asthma in otherwise healthy people.
FABRIC SOFTENERS
The fragrances and other ingredients used to make them can cause asthma,
allergies or lung irritation.
CLEANING PRODUCTS WITH FRAGRANCE
The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health has found that one-third of the substances used in the fragrance industry are toxic, yet because the formulas used for these fragrances are trade secrets companies aren’t required to disclose the ingredients used.
ANTIBACTERIAL PRODUCTS
The ingredients used to kill bacteria in these soaps can can encourage the development of drug-resistant superbugs.
​
CORROSIVE DRAIN CLEANERS, OVERN CLEANERS
& TOILET BOWL CLEANERS
These are the most dangerous cleaning products on the market. Ingredients in these cleaners can cause severe burns on skin and eyes, or if ingested to the throat & esophagus
BLEACH & AMMONIA
Separately these cleaners produce fumes with high acute toxicity to eyes, nose, throat and lungs and should not be used by people with asthma or lung issues. Used together, these products produce a a toxic gas that can cause serious lung damage
PRODUCTS THAT CREATE SUDS
(shampoo, liquid soap, bubble bath, laundry detergent)
Ingredients such as 1,4-dioxane, diethanolamine (DEA), triethanolamine (TEA), sodium laureth sulfate, PEG compounds, etc. are known carcinogens linked to organ toxicity.In addition to acute and long-term health issues, many of these chemicals pose health hazards to the environment too. When these cleaners are used in sinks, bathtubs or showers, they go down the drain and may threaten water quality or wildlife. Sudsing agents in shampoos, liquid soaps and detergents and phosphates used to soften hard water in detergents pose a huge threat to our water supply.
