Question: do our current cleaning practices make us sick?

 
Bridgette Gardiner from Fresh Green Clean equates the use of many common household cleaning chemicals to blowing out a candle with a fire extinguisher. We use brute force, and if that doesn’t work, we use more of it. There is mounting evidence that the answer to the question above is a resounding yes. They are bad for our immune system, respiratory system, nervous system and who knows what else. What we do know is that we now have 500 chemicals in our bodies that our grandparents did not.

Generally there are 100,000 synthetic chemicals in commerce that were not in existence 90 years ago.
