***Where are the Toxins? Can you Spot Them?

We've discussed how toxins can affect our crops and the nutritional value of specific produce and we've discussed how these toxins are harmful but why? Why do we want to reduce toxins around us - they never seemed to hurt us before. I'm sure you've heard it from other generations - I ate bacon and eggs every day and I feel great... But the toxins were as heavy and weren't hidden in virtually everything we subject our children and ourselves too back even in the 70s or 80s. Let's first take a quick look at the 5 top places for toxins to hide in my everyday life: the life of a mom (a stay at home mom).

1. Air - Environmental toxins are all around us from our cleaners to the atmosphere. If it isn't absorbed by a product then the air soaks it up and sadly, we breathe it. Mold - pollen - dust mites etc...

2. Water - This is scary especially where we live in Illinois. Did you know that sewage can be dumped into the river if our water level is too high. Yuck! Then we put more chemicals like chlorine in the water to kill the YUCKY stuff. Do you want to be drinking chlorine with pesticides? Not me.

3. Cleaners - This is a killer. No, really. Mom's whether you clean or homes or have someone do it, do you really want to breathe these strong chemicals. These chemicals are already proven to increase the risk of diseases and to deteriorate your immune systems. Why have them? You have tons of other options. All you have to decide is do you want a green cleaner that supports a chemical company like the ones you see at the stores - this is call green washing because they still are harmful or do you want a green cleaner that will always protect you and your family even when the money comes back through the company. For instance, Green Works supports Clorox, Basic H2 supports a family, Vinegar supports whoever, Make sure you are supporting who you want.

4. Food - processed, caffeine, artificial sweeteners, ready to go, fast food (actually restaurant food), - these all have heavy amounts of chemicals in them so that we can store the food longer and keep it longer. Guess what. It keeps longer even in our bodies too. It doesn't break down like real food so that our bodies can us it. It causes our hormones in our system to get out of whack and then the whole snowball effect takes place: gain weight, stressed out, add more 'chemicals', lower energy.... One hormone is related to another. Our bodies are smart but we keep throwing stuff at them until the point they can't understand anymore. Fruits, vegges, meats and dairy - choose organic for the foods you eat most. The foods we eat simply don't have the nutrition that our bodies' crave. Supplementation is a must to maintain a healthy body and thereby, reduce your risk of illnesses.

5. Lastly skin care - this is where society sneaks in the chemicals. Products that we feel are totally safe - shampoo, face wash, etc. Yet, numerous of these products have been found to increase the risk of cancer and other illnesses. Don't worry, you don't have to give up sexy skin because you give up toxins. You have options.
