Did you know that one of the most common sources of exposure to dangerous chemicals and carcinogens is via ordinary household cleaning products? Although household cleansers seem innocuous, many of them are made of potentially dangerous solvents, acids, and cancer-causing substances. If you have children or pets in your home, they are particularly vulnerable to these harsh chemicals. If you would like to start avoiding dangerous household products, you can purchase commercial organic, natural cleansers. These cleaning products are available at almost any store and are generally made of fruit juices and extracts, vinegar, baking soda, salts, herbal extracts, and other safe substances. What are the health benefits of switching to natural, organic cleaning products? First, you're drastically reducing your exposure to cancer-causing chemicals. Second, you're reducing your exposure to allergens and substances that can trigger asthma attacks. Organic cleansers are a particularly good choice if you have children with asthma or other breathing conditions in the home, since they do not produce the kinds of fumes that can worsen breathing or trigger an attack. Switching to organic cleansers is also advantageous compared to using products with antibacterial substances. Current research suggests that antibacterial soaps and cleansers actually end up increasing the proportion of dangerous bacteria in the home due to antibiotic resistance. There are many types of organic cleaning products that can sanitize surfaces and kill bacteria without causing antibiotic resistance.
