There is always a lot of talk about causes of cancer including the many chemicals we exposed.  There are many studies which have lead to conflict among experts and confusion for the rest of us.  Of the over 80,000 chemicals used in the US, only a few hundred have been tested for safety.   When they are tested, they are test individually overlooking the effects of combined chemicals and what the health damages are.  We are usually exposed to more than one chemical at a time, so obviously there is a long way to go.   Chemicals are assumed safe unless strong evidence come up to show otherwise meaning that chemicals with unknown effects are not considered unsafe by regulatory agencies.

So what should you do, try to limit your exposure to harsh chemicals and go for more natural solutions especially in cleaning products, the natural option may be a little more but what is the price of your future health?  We offer both Mrs. Meyers Clean day and Dr. Bonners both of which are great natural options.  Also, try to eat organic fruits and veggies, make sure of local farmers market, the closer you can get food from the farm the better.  Filter your tap water and store drinking water in stainless steel or bisphenol-A (BPA)-free containers, only microwave foods in ceramic or glass not plastic.
