What's under your sink?

We believe home should be the safest place in the whole world. What do you believe?

The Facts:

  • 9 out of 10 poison exposures are suspected to be from household products.
  • 75,000 that's the number of registered chemicals, only a fraction of which have been tested for human health concerns.

Look under your sink right now. Pick a cleaner, any cleaner. Does it contain chlorine, phenol, ammonia, or formaldehyde? These—and more—may be toxic. Toxic as in dangerous, as in hurtful, as in not very clean at all. Home is no place for stuff like that. So start by getting rid of those troublemakers. Responsibly, of course. Then call in green, non-toxic cleaners. When you welcome non-toxic cleaners into your home, none of those hazardous things come with it. So be sure you're letting in products that care as much about your family's safety as you do.

Perform a toxic audit of your home. Find out what harmful toxins are threatening your family.
