For several years now, Malachi and I have become more aware of different products that contain toxic ingredients. Many of these products are for use on our precious babies! We do our best to be consistent and when we changed our diet and eating habits, it just logically flowed that we should also rethink the other products we use on a daily basis. This includes but is not limited to household cleaning products, laundry products, and beauty and personal hygiene products.
We know and understand that we simply cannot avoid all toxins that we are exposed to, but in those things we can personally control we do. Mrs. McDonald shared some great insight on this very topic a few days ago, and I thought it would be a great idea to share the information with my readers as well.
She writes:
"You might be surprised to find that your skin is by far the largest organ in your body, and what you put on it affects your mind and body in ways you can’t always see immediately. Many ingredients found in popular cleaning and personal care products are, or can be, cancer-causing agents (or just plain dangerous). Because your skin is permeable, such ingredients harm not only the skin itself, but can penetrate into your body, get into your blood stream, and cause all sorts of internal damage."
I hope that you will take the time to head over and read the article she shared, and then diligently seek to find ways to clear out any toxic products you have in your home.
Serving God and My Family,
