There is a seemingly endless list of reasons to switch your home cleaning products to more natural and environmentally friendly choices. From supporting a cleaner and better industry to your own personal health. Here are some numbers in case you thought "eh whatever"

*There are roughly 63 synthetic chemicals in the average home equalling 10 gallons of harmful chemicals.

*Indoor pollution is 100% higher than outdoor, so before you shut the window thinking you're keeping that pesky pollution out, think again.

*There are 17,000 petrochemicals available for use in home cleaners, only 30% of which have been tested for exposure in humans and environment.

Yikes. Here are some brands of cleaners I use and love:

Mrs. Meyer's

Ecover

Seventh Generation

Or you can make your own! I will post some recipes in the next few days...stay tuned!
