| There is a reason that most of our children are sick |
| Scientific research is now starting to link toxic household chemicals to all kinds of chronic diseases and disorders in children and adults, including ADD/ADHD, behavioral problems, neurological disorders, fertility problems, allergies, asthma and cancer just to name a few.
Many of the products in your home probably contain preservatives that are known or suspected carcinogens. Of course the manufacturers aren't going to tell you this.
Johnson & Johnson isn't going to tell you that their baby shampoo contains two known carcinogens, quaternium-15 which releases formaldehyde, and FD&C red #40.
The makers of Tide and Cheer aren't going to tell you that their detergents contain six known carcinogens and have been shown to cause asthma attacks (sodium sulfate).
Dove's Beauty Bar contains quaternium and BHT, another known carcinogen; and Fantastic and 409 contain Butyl Cellosolve which is a neurotoxin that is easily absorbed through the skin and can damage the nervous system.
Children are especially vulnerable to these chemicals.

Hi Regina,
thank you for the useful information. Do you have any literature you can refer on the subject. Maybe a black list of toxic products we are about to use around kids.

Hello Regina
I tottaly agree and if you do research it you can find horrible things about what chemicals are put in our baby products and our own. I found some really great products that are safe and all botanically based. I am so happy that I now can feel like I am putting safe products on my children. If you want to know more about them let me know.
Thanks so much for putting this up here!! It is something people really need to know about!
