Why Clean Household Products Matter
by Terri Bonin
If it’s possible to be in love with a household cleaner, I am. Yes, I know it sounds ridiculous but cleaning is here to stay and so we might as well embrace it with a happy heart and a healthy one too! The sad truth is too many people are actually rushing to the grave and not enjoying their life in the here and now due to toxic overload from toxic cleaners, as well as toxic personal care products, and even toxic beauty products! It’s heartbreaking that the average woman leaves her house in the morning after being exposed to over 300 chemicals! YIKES! Who knew!!! We are literally poisioning ourselves, our families, and our pets right in our very own homes!
There is actually a better way…
Toxin FREE living is not an oximoron! It’s doable! And even on a fraction of the cost that you are more than likely spending at the local market or supercenter! Enter center stage, Thieves Household Cleaner! My Hero! (of course next to my favorite dentist, my husband!)
Thieves household cleaner has cinnamon, clove, lemon, rosemary, and eucalyptus essential oils in it, all of which penetrate through the nastiest grime and grub your kids can produce! And it’s the kind of cleaner you WANT to inhale and get on your skin! (the largest organ of your body!) I always feel so happy after a day of cleaning because of the ingredients in the household cleaner! The best part….it’s concentrated and with just one capful to a large spray bottle you’ve got yourself a cleaner that will clean your house from top to bottom at a fraction of the price of all those other cleaners under your sink!
Just don’t stop there! Grab yourself the Think Dirty App and start scanning ALL the barcodes in your home from toothpaste to deoderant to baby wipes and see how the products are rating on their toxicity level! When we know better we do better…for ourselves and our families! As the gate keepers of the home it’s about time we take control of our families health and wellness and we might as well start with ditching the toxic chemicals to the curb!
