Why Healthy Home Cleaning Is Important?

According to a US Environmental Protection Agency report to Congress on indoor air, most homes have concentrations of hazardous airborne chemicals that are two to five times higher indoors than outdoors. In one five-year study, the EPA reported that some US homes had chemicals levels that were seventy times higher inside than out! This same study concluded that the toxic chemicals in household cleaners are three times more likely to cause cancer than outdoor air pollution. 1 in 2 people get cancer today!!!  Further studies have concluded that toxic indoor air is one of the leading contributors of asthma, allergies, ADD and even depression!

Getting the chemical cleaners out of our homes is very necessary for our health and beneficial for our environment!

Here is a great article about toxins and our home and at the bottom I will have some Natural, NonToxic, Green Cleaning Solutions.
