It’s Easy Being “Clean”


I started using environmentally friendly, non-toxic cleaning products about six months ago after I heard about the danger of traditional cleaning products. Although I always thought that my house smelled so wonderful after it was cleaned using bleach and lots of chemicals, I came to find that these chemicals could actually be hurting me: http://www.thegreenguide.com/green-cleaning-products/

There’s a variety of brands I use now – including Ecover, Seventh Generation, Method and more. I was a bit skeptical of their power at first, but I’ve come to really enjoy green cleaning products. Give them a try: you’ll be helping your body, the environment, your pets and your loved ones. And green cleaning products cost about the same as traditional products.

My green cleaning product favorites:
- Ecos laundry detergent (at Costco)
- Ecover dishwasher tabs ($4.99 for 30)
- Method mint glass cleaner (as low as $2.50 at Target)

I LOVE Seventh Generation. We use that brand for praactically everything. I mean who wants thier house to smell like chemicals. That doesn't smell clean...that smells NASTY, and frankly gives me a big headache. :)
