Don't Try This At Home...Cleaner Reaction

Please Don't try this at  home...it could be hazardous to your health. 
Check out this photo and see the reaction when using products that can harm you.
Do you or someone you know use Ivory Snow and Clorox 2?



Jar with the red lid is Ivory Snow & Clorox 2 mixed then let sit. It bubbled over the top then formed this thick layer of gel.


Jar with the white lid is Shaklee Fresh Laundry & Nature Bright

Many people don't know there can be danger in mixing cleaning products together.

The fumes can be deadly & this type of reaction is not good for your plumbing.
You see there was NO reaction with the Shaklee products.

What do you want your family sleeping on and living in?

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,
Lisa

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.

EPA Celebrates Children's Health Month

This news relase is from the EPA website.

Help Protect Children from Environmental Risks: EPA Provides Tips during Children’s Health Month

WASHINGTON - October is Children’s Health Month. To heighten awareness about environmental issues impacting children, EPA is providing parents and caregivers simple tips they can use to help protect children in their homes, schools and communities.

“As both EPA Administrator and a mother, I understand the importance of protecting our children from environmental threats,” said EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson. “Throughout Children’s Health Month, we will work to help parents and caretakers ensure the safety of our children and build a safer, cleaner, more sustainable world for their future.”

Children eat, drink and breathe more per pound than adults. When food, water or air is polluted, children are more affected by that pollution when compared to adults. These concerns about children’s health are a driving force behind many of EPA’s programs, policies and regulatory activities.

There are simple steps that parents and other caregivers can take to protect children from environmental health hazards in their surrounding daily environment.

Here are some simple steps that can be taken to help keep children safe and healthy:


1. Discover how climate change may affect the health of children, and how reducing energy helps the climate and reduces air pollution.
2. Have a health care provider or local health department test children’s blood lead levels.
3. Wash floors and window sills to remove dust and peeling lead-based paint, especially in older homes, where lead based paint is more likely to be found. Repair peeling or chipping paint in older homes.
4. Reduce asthma attacks by controlling triggers such as pet dander, mold and second-hand smoke.
5. Don’t expose children to cigarette, cigar or pipe smoke at home or in a car.
6. Check the local public water supplier for annual drinking water quality reports. Have private water wells tested annually by a certified laboratory.
7. Store pesticides and other chemicals in a locked cabinet. Never put them in other containers that can be mistaken for food or drink.
8. Replace mercury thermometers with digital or mercury-free thermometers.
9. Homes should be tested for radon, as it is the second leading cause of lung cancer.
