Why are we poisoning our children?

***"More children under four die of accidental poisonings at home than 
are accidentally killed with guns at home."--National Safty Council
	The average home contains more cemicals than were found in a  
typical chemistry lab at the turn of the century. The National Safety 
Commission has determined that cleaning products are some of the most 
dangerous substances in the home today. Window 
cleaner--Mouthwash--Bleach--Laundry and Dishwashing 
detergerts--Shampoo-- these products can be deadly poisons to your 
child and any other child that comes into your ahome.

***Most poisonings occur slowly, over a long period of time by daily 
exposure to these chemicals.
	One 15 year study conducted on women showed a 54% higher death 
rate from cancer for those who worked at home than for those who had 
jobs away from home.

***"Of the chemicals commonly found in homes, 150 have been linked to 
allergies, bvirth defects, cancer, and psychological 
abnormalities."--Consumer Product Safety Commission
 	A 1985 EPA report concluded that the toxic chemicals in 
ousehold cleaners are three times more likely to cause cancer than air 
pallution.

***"After analyzing 2,983 chemicals used in personal care products, 884 
were found to be toxic."--National Institute of Occupational Safety and 
Health 
	
I believe it's important to say that household cleaning and personal 
care products are not the only source of chemicals in your home. As you 
have seen, however, they are some of the most toxic and deadly. 
Fortunately, they are also some of the easiest to replace.

Wouldn't it be better to get these chemicals out of your home?
There are far better--safer alternatives--
