Cancer Research Information states:
“that within one hour of wearing clothes, chemicals from laundry detergents are in your urine. What happens when you lay in them all night!”
Note:Residues of these chemicals can remain in the clothing and bedding that comes in direct contact with the skin and the respiratory system. No wonder many asthmatic attacks occur at night, when one is literally surrounded with chemicals
HOUSEHOLD CLEANERS-THE REAL DIRT ON CLEAN
Household Cleaners
•Common cleaners give off fumes which can potentially increase the risk of kids developing asthma, the most common chronic childhood diseases.
•1 in 13 school-aged children has asthma. Rates in children under five have increased more the 160% from 1980-1994.
•Children are highly vulnerable to chemical toxicant Pound for pound of body weight, children drink more water, eat more food and breathe more air than adults. The implication of this is that children will have substantially heavier exposures than adults to any toxicants that are present in water, food or air.
•The average Canadian home generates more than 20 pounds of household hazardous waste each year (the EPA designates toilet cleaners, tub and tile cleaners, oven cleaners and bleach as hazardous waste)
Cleaning could be HAZARDOUS!!! to your Health

HOUSEHOLD CLEANERS-THE REAL DIRT ON CLEAN
- 0ver90% of poison exposures happen at home.
- Common chlorine bleach is the #1 household chemical involved in poisoning.
- Organic pollutants, found in many common cleaners and even air fresheners, are found at levels 2-5 times higher inside your home than out.
- A person spending 15 minutes cleaning scale off shower walls could inhale three times the “acute one-hour exposure limit” for glycol ether containing products set by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment.
