Non-Toxic Family Center!

Welcome to my non-toxic family center :

What a joy to have my precious family, friends, and visitors over in my non-toxic family center!

If I had my way, everybody would be enjoying the joys of a fun life and the blessings of a healthy life.

I firmly believe that information is empowerment, and that the actions we choose to take today define our destiny and quality of life tomorrow.

At this website, the very best place to start is to read our eye-opening Consumer Report: "9 Things You Should Know".

When I talk to people about the tremendous, long-term, health benefits of switching to non-toxic products, many respond that there are toxic chemicals in the air we breathe, the foods we eat, and the water we drink... "So, what difference does it make?" they ask.

This attests to the importance of Consumer Awareness. With so much that's presently available to reverse the damaging effects of today's environmental toxins, a lot of people still have settled for the erroneous notion that there's nothing they can do about it!!

What you don't know can jeopardize your enjoyment of life as you age.

This website is for you who prefer a nontoxic lifestyle.

Take advantage of all the knowledge that is shared freely with you at this website, especially what's in the Consumer Awareness section.

It is my desire to contribute my grain of sand towards helping you live out your full lifespan enjoying the best health possible. I hope to do this by providing information that will educate and empower you.

You only have ONE body to live in. Take care of it!!

Thank you for visiting my non-toxic family center!

BEWARE of These Harmful Ingredients!

Tue, 18 Oct 2005 16:57:20 -0600

Everyday you may unknowingly be lavishing your body, the body of your little ones, or the body of a loved elderly with POISON!

The truth is that the personal care & beauty products you may be using to enhance your appearance are laden with chemicals that in many cases do more harm than good.

But since the personal care and cosmetic industry is a multi-billion dollar a year industry, it is more advantageous to them for you NOT to know.

Check the labels of your current bathroom products (mouthwashes, toothpaste, shampoos, conditioners, shower bars/gels, bubble baths, shaving gels/creams and deodorants) for these potentially harmful ingredients.

Why FDA Fails

But, ...The Government Would Never Allow Harmful Products on the Market! ...Or Would They?

We have to face the fact that the government and the FDA do not have all the control we assume they do. Reason why using non-toxic products is the safest thing to do.

To help you understand this dilemma, I will proceed to present just a few quotes from Senator Edward M. Kennedy's statement in September of 1997 for FDA Reform and Cosmetic Preemption.

The term "Cosmetics" covers all personal care (bath & beauty) products used by the whole family.

"Pre-emption of cosmetic regulation is especially outrageous and shows a callous disregard for the health of American women and, in many cases, of the children they may be carrying in their wombs. Cosmetics are broadly used by Americans--far more broadly than most prescription drugs, medical devices, or biologic products.

Nine things the cosmetics industry will never tell you!

Consumer Awareness:
Your Bathroom May NOT Be
As Safe As You Think

Find out what the Personal Care & Cosmetic Industry would NEVER tell you... Here are 9 things you should know!

Did You Know?

...That the American Association of Poison Control Centers reports that about 150,000 children are poisoned every year through the use of personal care products?
...That there are over 884 known harmful ingredients, in the form of carcinogens (cancer-causing agents), toxins, dioxins, irritants and contaminants, that are commonly found in today's mainstream store-bought personal care products and cosmetics?
...That these toxic products compromise your health? Day by day they are slowly weakening your body and making you much more susceptible to disease and obesity. And most people don't even realize it?
...That research has shown how the daily use of toxic products are directly linked to the astronomical increase in disease rates of e.g.: heart & cardiovascular disease, arthritis, diabetes, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's, chronic fatigue syndrome, sleeping disorders, anxieties, obesity, and numerous
other illnesses?
...That 80% of all cancers today can be avoided because they are toxin-related and NOT related to genetic predisposition?
...That Cancer is today the #1 killer disease for children age 1 up to adolecense?... And that it's the #2 killer disease for adults?
...That surprisingly, these harmful ingredients can even be found in many so called "natural" products in health food stores?
...That by the year 2030, it is expected that 1 out of 1 will be diagnosed with a form of cancer--if we don't do something about it NOW?
...That because of today's increasingly toxic environment, our bodies are rapidly deteriorating (aging prematurely) from the inside out?

Through your bath, beauty and household products, you have more harmful chemicals in your home today than were found in many chemistry labs around the 1900's!!
