I like to be aware and concious of what goes into your mouth.It doesn't have to be the greatest, healthiest, safest everytime, but awareness of the reprecussions of it help. If we all did this, would there be less diabetes, heart disease, obesity? Would there be less behavioural problems and sickness in children?

Healthy Homes

 
A healthy home is a place that is safe for everyone, especially children, and doesn't hurt the local environment.  Some steps to a healthier home are to:

ventilate rooms,
replace synthetic furnishings and coverings,
shift to natural cleaners,
avoid pesticides in the home and garden 
store and dispose of chemicals safely
nuetralise the negitive ions in the atmosphere, thats another topic!
place broad leaf green plants around the house - the Peace Lilly is great




Many common household items such as cleaners, furnishings, carpets and furniture contain a coctaill of chemicals. Many common day ailments, such as asthma, allergies, multiple chemical sensitivity, hyperactivity in children and chronic fatigue syndrome are being linked to chemicals in our homes.
