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-- Ainez Hayunga ***CONSUMER DIRECT MARKETING*** To learn more about a Healthier Home --Healthier Family Visit our Home Page at---http://www.brainerd.net/~ainez29 >>All the Advantages of Multi-Level Marketing-NONE OF THE Problems>>
