Are you interested in saving money, improving your health & protecting our environment?






The National Institute of Occupational Safety & Health analyzed 2,983 chemicals used in personal care products. A personal care product is defined as anything we use to clean our bodies, or make ourselves look or smell good.

The results are as follows:
884 were toxic
314 caused biological mutation
218 caused reproductive complications
778 caused acute toxicity
148 caused tumors
376 caused skin & eye irritations


Did you know . . .

There are more than 3 million poisonings every year and that household cleaners are the #1 cause of poisonings in children? Manufactures ARE NOT required to list the exact ingredients on a label.

Since, 1980 asthma has increased by 600%? Common household cleaners & cosmetics have been identified as triggers of asthma attacks.

That after a 15 year study the National Cancer Association found that 54% of women who stay at home are at a higher risk of developing cancer than women who work outside the home? Today, cancer is the leading cause of death for women aged 35-74.

TODAY, according to the American Cancer Society, 1 out of 2 persons will be touched by cancer? The fear of cancer is on everyone’s mind these days. We hear about it all the time. There are so many forms of cancer, and they all had to start somewhere.

That women's fertility has also been negatively affected by the increase use of chemicals?

We have no choice but to breathe the air, eat the food, and drink the water we have. However, we DO have a CHOICE of what we put on our skin and what products we have in our homes.

We have the power to decide. I know that I personally do not ever want to believe that I caused harm to my family or pets when I had the choice to change it.
