Cleaning - who knew?

As I've become older I noticed that my skin on my knuckles were getting really rough. I kept putting lotion on, and though it covered it up, it never really solved the problem. Well, after seeing "Chemical Nation" I got inspired.

I figured it couldn't hurt to change out my shampoo, soaps, body wash, and house hold cleaners to WholeFoods 360 Brand. It didn't follow all the rules as outlined in the movie, but it covered off most of them. It took about a week, and I noticed that those rough spots on my hands started softening; and then by the end of two weeks, it was back to healthy skin. I'm convinced that this really made a difference, since I didn't change my diet at all. The only thing that changed was the removal of toxic chemicals.

After this, my wife and I have been checking the labels of all the products we've brought into our home. Slowly, everything is being changed over, and everything thing feels just as clean. However, now I'm not thinking about the toxic chemicals I might be breathing in or worse "eating".

As a final comment, I'm not sure if you noticed and ad on tv for Lysol. It shows a mother spraying a youngster's teady bear with Lysol. I wonder how willing the board of directors would be to give their children, or grandchildren a stuffed bear sprayed with Lysol. Considering most youngsters stick everything in their mouths, imagine the toxically report after a child sucks on a Lysol covered stuffed toy. It astounds me that Health Canada hasn't stopped the ad. I'm also surprised that this passed the internal marketing department.
