Switching over to natural cleaners is one of the best things you can do for your home. It’s an easy way to eliminate unnecessary toxins from your cleaning routine once you have what you need. Here’s a list of 5 natural cleaning ingredients to help get you started on your green cleaning journey!
WHY SHOULD I START USING NATURAL CLEANING INGREDIENTS?
Whether we want to admit it or not, we are surrounded by all kinds of toxins.
It’s not just what we eat (that’s a huge part of it, though), it’s everything we expose ourselves to.
The personal care products, the plastic, the wifi… Then there are the commercial cleaners we keep under the sink.
The way I look at it, anything that gets a huge marketing and advertising budget is something I should stay away from.
Do you want to know why?
Here in Canada, 1 in 2 Canadians is expected to be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. In the States, the CDC reported that allergies in children increased significantly between 1997-2011.
Then there are the growing numbers of people being diagnosed with conditions like Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis, heart disease, and infertility amongst others.
Before you scourge me, I am not saying these problems are caused by what you clean your home with. Changing what you clean your home with, however, is an easy way to become more conscious of what you invite into your life.
Switching to natural cleaners is a good first step to reducing the toxins you’re exposing yourself and your family to.
