Avoid Chlorine Now and Forever 

December 31st, 2007

Take a deep breath and begin to think of your everyday activities. What toxic chemicals are you coming in contact with on a daily basis? What household cleaning products are you using? The fumes are inhaled! What personal care products are you using? These are absorbed through the skin and mucosal membranes! What are you washing your clothes with? These clothes sit on your skin and are absorbed through the skin!
These are just a few things that an easily be changed! Take charge of your health and minimize your exposure. Contact us at info@ToxicPreventionSpecialist.com

Chlorine Gas in Homes 

December 30th, 2007

STOP! We must stop using chlorine. The gases remain inside because the homes are so insulated. When the chlorine goes into the sewers it enters the environment - land and water. This one agent alone can make a HUGE difference in reducing air pollution.

‘Tis the Season for Safety 

December 15th, 2007

In prior notes we mentioned Toxic Toys, Toxic Personal Care Products but today we want to mention the Toxic Household products. Asthma is on the increase 600%! Childhood cancers have never been growing at a more rapid rate. The “clean” generation as forgotten to go “CLEAN GREEN!” Wise up now and look for the alternatives to amonia, chlorine, bleach, formaldehyde, phenols, phosphates etc. We converted our home 4yrs ago and will NEVER go back. The health benefits for our family have been great, the environmental contribution without reproach and now we can help you too. Make this a holiday season to last forever.

Alert for Toxic Toys 

December 12th, 2007

Many think of toxic poisoning just from ingesting from the mouth and digestive track! I challenge us all to rid the toxic poisoning from absorption through the skin - our largest organ - as well as absorption through mucosal membranes of the nose, eyes etc. Below is a marvelous source for consumers wanting to buy safe toys for youngsters. Pass the link to anyone you care about. For more information about a safer home contact us at info@ToxicPreventionSpecialist.com

Quanternium 15 Formaldehyde Releaser 

December 12th, 2007

Buyer beware!! Products for household use do not have to provide ingredients on the label! Whenever one sees Quanternium 15 it is certain that one of the 30 trade names for formaldehyde are in the product. Formaldehyde is known to be a carcinogen as well as to cause many other health hazards. For example, even some (many) new carpetings have formaldehyde!!!
