I have had upper respiratory infections for years! And really never knew why I kept getting them year after year. I just know that I would feel miserable when I did get them and it took forever to get rid of it. I kept reading on the internet how bad household cleaners were for your health. And all the chemicals and toxins they were putting into the cleaners. That included bug and weed killer spray. And I kept on thinking but I just LOVE the smell of my laundry detergent, fabric softener, and the air fresheners, etc.
So I ask you these questions:
1. Do you get headaches after using ANY household cleaner?
2. Does the smell bother you when using them?
3. Do you use gloves when using them?
4. Do you have to wear a mask when using them?
5. Do you have allergies?
6. Do you get watery eyes?
7. Do you cough after using them?
If you answered YES to any of these questions you need to start getting rid of ALL toxic cleaners and GO GREEN and natural.
Here are some facts:
We all use a wide array of scents, soaps, detergents, bleaching agents, softeners, scourers, polishes, and specialized cleaners for bathrooms, glass, drains, and ovens to keep our homes sparkling and sweet-smelling. But BEWARE cleaning ingredients vary in the type of health hazard they pose. Some cause acute, or immediate, hazards such as skin or respiratory irritation, watery eyes, or chemical burns, while others are associated with chronic, or long-term, effects such as cancer.
The most acutely dangerous cleaning products are corrosive drain cleaners, oven cleaners, and acidic toilet bowl cleaners. Corrosive chemicals can cause severe burns on eyes, skin and, if ingested, on the throat and esophagus. Ingredients with high acute toxicity include chlorine bleach and ammonia, which produce fumes that are highly irritating to eyes, nose, throat and lungs, and should not be used by people with asthma or lung or heart problems. These two chemicals pose an added threat in that they can react with each other or other chemicals to form lung-damaging gases. Combining products that contain chlorine and ammonia or ammonia and lye (in some oven cleaners) produces chloramine gases, while chlorine combined with acids (commonly used in toilet bowl cleaners) forms toxic chlorine gas.
Fragrances added to many cleaners, most notably laundry detergents and fabric softeners, may cause acute effects such as respiratory irritation, headache, sneezing, and watery eyes in sensitive individuals or allergy and asthma sufferers. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health has found that one-third of the substances used in the fragrance industry are toxic. But because the chemical formulas of fragrances are considered trade secrets, companies aren't required to list their ingredients but merely label them as containing "fragrance."
The list goes on and on – I know I could write a book about it. So does this information scare you? I hope it does because it is scary to me.
I finally decided to SHAKLEELIZE the whole house and use ALL of their GET CLEAN products. Since I switched I have not an upper respiratory infection in almost a year. And I’ve noticed my husband hasn’t been sick like he normally does either. We hardly get sick anymore and I don’t get headaches as often as I use to. I can tell when I go somewhere when they use bleach or some other cleaner. It gives me a headache and the smell can really get to me. And sometimes I will feel under the weather for a few days. And when I get sick I take their Nutrition supplements to help stay healthy and make me feel better WITHOUT any side effects.
GET CLEAN offers you nontoxic and natural cleaning choices that are SAFE, POWERFUL, GREEN and SMART. Because when it comes to keeping your house clean and the earth safe, you shouldn’t have to choose. When you use Get Clean, you’re never simply cleaning. While you make your home cleaner, you can make your family healthier. You also make the planet healthier for other families as well.
