Carcinogens or Neurotoxins in your home?

One of the reasons I am so proud to be associated with Shaklee is their standard. Always Safe, Always Works, Always Green. this applies to all of their products whether you are putting them in your body, on your body or in your home. Have you thought about the products in your home?

Check out this excerpt below from the Safe Shoppers Bible. You can make a change to positively improve your health - if you need help with a product equivalant to make a change - let me help.

To Your Health,

The Safe Shoppers Bible by Dr.Samuel Epstein,MD,and Dr. David Steinman, MD.

"Not a single cosmetic company warns consumers of the presence of carcinogens in its products - despite the fact that several common cosmetic ingredients or their contaminants are carcinogenic themselves or are carcinogenic precursors."

"Government and industry have failed abysmally to protect consumer health adequately; at the very least, they have failed to inform consumers fully of the hazardous ingredients used in household products, cosmetics and foods. One of the major reasons for our publishing the Safe Shoppers Bible is to empower you to transform your lifestyle into one that is healthier,
more natural & in greater harmony with the health of our environment."

According to The Safe Shoppers Bible. here is a partial list of common household products that contain known carcinogens and/or neurotoxins.
Carcinogens are chemicals that cause cancer.
Neurotoxins are chemicals that adversely affect the nervous system reducing emotional well being,mental alertness, coordination and other functions associated with intelligence.
