"Chlorine Gas Is Used in Chemical Warfare—Why Pollute Your Indoor Air
With Cleaning Products?"
Use EcoFriendly Cleaners in Your Home
A little over a year ago I became aware
of the health risks involved with household cleaners:
- Volatile chemicals in household cleaners become gaseous at room
temperature or form microscopic particles when sprayed—causing lung
damage and entering the bloodstream to effect other organs as well.
- The propellant (methylene chloride a.k.a. dichloromethane) used in
lots of aerosol products is a known carcinogen.
- Some cleaning chemicals, called neurotoxins, can affect the nervous
system, reducing emotional well-being, coordination, intelligence, and
mental alertness.
- Other cleaning chemicals, called reproductive toxins, such as
teratogen can cause miscarriages, birth defects, pregnancy
complications, sterility, and infertility.
- Carpet cleaners have been linked to
Kawasaki disease...though not conclusively.
The chemicals in our household cleaners are contaminating our indoor air
so badly, along with other contaminants, that the
EPA declares indoor air pollution as one of the nation's most pressing
personal health concerns...

"If
Antifreeze Is Bad for Our Pets, Why Are We Giving It To Our Kids?"

Use
EcoFriendly Bath &
Beauty Products
When I started checking out the products in my bathrooms
I was appalled with their hazardous ratings. The Carmex I used on
my lips every morning and night was rated a 7! My Dove antiperspirant
was a 6, my Crest toothpaste was a 6 (although the chemical sodium
fluoride it contains is rated an 8!). Even my Aveeno lotion was an 8!
Just about everything I used had a moderate to high hazardous rating,
due to the chemicals they contained...

"Learn How
To Prevent/Minimize Asthma & Allergies"
We've all heard that the air in our homes may be (and probably is) more
polluted than outdoor air. According to the EPA...
"In the last several years, a growing body
of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other
buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even
the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates
that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Thus,
for many people, the risks to health may be greater due to exposure to
air pollution indoors than outdoors."
"Worn out? Overwhelmed? Be Inspired!"

Nick Vujicic from Australia puts things
into perspective for all of us.
