Is your home a Healthy Home? How safe are household products? Common household cleaners and personal care products may gradually be making you and your family sick.
· Household cleaners are the #1 cause of poisoning in children
· After injury, Cancer is the leading cause of death in children between the ages of 5-9.
· Respiratory illnesses are the most common reason for child Emergency Room visits
· Asthma in children has jumped 400% over the last 20 years!
· The NY Poison Control Center reported that 85% of product warnings are either inadequate or
incorrect for identifying a poison
· Manufactures are not required to put warnings on their labels about ingredients that cause long term
health effects
For every toxic product in your home there is a safe alternative. Almost every item in your home could be hazardous to your health and to the health of your children.
Children are not usually the ones doing the cleaning but preschool-age children are often near a caregiver who is using chemical cleaning products.
Personal care products are designed to be applied to the skin; we should be extra careful about the safety of these products. Because everything applied to the skin eventually travels to every part of the body.
· 61% of baby bath products tested have Formaldehyde and 1,4-Dioxane
· Johnson & Johnson baby bath products are the leading seller and they test positive for Formaldehyde and 1,4-Dioxane
Unfortunately, many products are assumed to be safe and are allowed to be sold in the marketplace without adequate testing or labeling. It is only after the health of many consumers are affected that the government begins to look into possible health effects. Laws are designed to protect the manufacturer not the consumer.
