Detoxing your home for a healthier family

If you’re unsure where to start, here are some easy places to start that may deliver immediate results. Of course, all results vary and there are many options but here is an idea.

• Fresh Air is Key: Open windows regularly to allow fresh air to circulate and remove pollutants. If this is not possible, air purifiers work wonders!
• Houseplants are Natural Purifiers: Consider incorporating air-purifying plants they help remove toxins like formaldehyde and benzene from the air.
• Fight Dust and Allergens: Vacuum regularly, using a HEPA filter if possible, to trap dust mites, pet dander, and other allergens. Wash bedding and linens in hot water weekly.
• Beware of Chemical Cleaners: Opt for natural cleaning solutions like vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice. There are ranges of organic non-chemical cleaning products on the market.

Reduce Chemical Exposure

• Scrutinize Products: Swap out conventional cleaning products, toiletries, and cosmetics for natural, toxin-free alternatives. Look for labels that say “natural,” “organic,” or “non-toxic.”
• Reduce Plastic Use: Limit your use of single-use plastics and opt for glass, stainless steel, or BPA-free containers whenever possible. Reusable containers also help the environment too!
