FACT:
There is an EPA to govern our air and water, FDA to regulate our food and drugs and OSHA to regulate our workplace, BUT THERE IS NO GOVERNING BODY TO REGULATE HOUSEHOLD AND PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS...what we use on and around our bodies on a daily basis.
FACT:
According to the EPA; Since the end World War II, there has been over 72,000 synthetic chemicals introduced to our homes. Only 2% have been tested and of those many have been found to be caustic and toxic to our bodies.
FACT:
Pesticides enter our body through inhalation, ingestion and skin absorbtion. 80% of most peoples exposer to pesticides occurs indoors and up to a dozen pesticides have been found in the air inside our homes (EPA 2010)
FACT: Asthma has increased 600% in the last decade.
IT IS OUR JOB AS EDUCATED CONSUMERS TO BE RESPONSIBLE ABOUT THE TYPES OF PRODUCTS WE ALLOW IN OUR HOMES.
Education = Knowledge = Power.... AND GOOD HEALTH!
