Time to Clean Up Our Act! Literally…

Recently, I’ve had my life turned upside-down with a health issue, and what I am hearing from doctors is that we have a lot of unnecessary chemicals in our lives that are harmful. Particularly, I am concerned with hormone disruptors and the chemicals that mimic the behavior of estrogen. These buggers are in a lot of our everyday products like Laundry Detergent, Fabric Softeners, Scented Candles, Cosmetics, Skin Care, packaging, TOYS!!, carpeting and more.

The NASTIES: Be on the look out for: Parabens, Phthalates, Dioxin, Phytoestrogens, PBDE (polybrominated diphenyl ethers), Perchlorate, PFAs, BPA, and Retinyl Palmitate to list a few.

I have searched the web for some easy to make/easy to use products that will not only save you money, but will also give you the peace of mind that you are eliminating these chemicals from your home.

Look for my other blog posts to get the easy recipes for Laundry Detergent, Dish Soap, Dishwasher Detergent, and All-purpose Spray Cleaner.
