Living a Non-Toxic Life:
Key Topics

Clean Eating

This is a wide topic, from how to avoid heavy pesticides and toxic chemicals in fruits and vegetables, to things to watch for with meats, fowl and fish, and what's in many processed foods. There are ways to avoid the worst of the toxins in food.

What's in your Water

Water quality varies greatly from one area to another, so it is important to check into yours. You drink it, cook with it, shower and bathe in it, and brush your teeth using it -- so exposure is high. There are many solutions to cleaner water no matter where you are.

The Air we Breathe

There are many things that can affect the quality of air you breath at home, work, and elsewhere. Some of these are not easy to detect but can have short and long term ill effects on your health and well-being. We cover the most common ones.

Personal Care Products

Soaps, shampoos and hair-care products, skin-care products, sunscreens, and many other personal care products on the market can be full of added toxic chemicals which, in some cases, can disrupt hormone production, damage organs, or worse.

Cleaning Products

Cleaning products can be some of the worst sources of toxic exposure, including some that have "green" or "organic" claims. But it is so easy to use more natural products such as All Purpose cleaner, Glass cleaned, and more -- just as effective as well as less expensive.

Environmental Toxins

As researchers and medical professionals continue to uncover how toxins such as mould, heavy metals and much more impact our health—and how they can potentially trigger additional issues within the body—the importance of reducing our exposure is vital.

Dental Toxicity

Many dental products such as toothpaste, mouthwash, and even dental floss can contain harmful chemicals that may pose risks to your health. Meanwhile there are highly effective alternatives.

Vaping and Smoking

The dangers of smoking are quite well known at this point, but many people have opted to switch to vaping. While you are missing the tar, vape liquids are loaded with toxic chemicals that can have some serious side-effects.

Chemically Treated Fabrics

Your skin readily absorbs chemicals from not only skincare products, but also from heavily chemically-treated clothing from dyes, fire retardants, synthetic fibers, and other chemicals used to treat clothing.
