With cheap products flooding our stores, and the incentive to cut corners for lower prices, its easy to find ourselves surrounded by items which poison us every day.
Toothpaste. Great write-ups from Mark Burhenne DDS (https://askthedentist.com/diy-toothpaste/) and Dr Mercola (https://products.mercolamarket.com/toothpaste/) covering why most are toxic and some better solutions.
Likewise, most personal hygiene products fall under this category. See the following from Dr Sam Bailey:
- Suncream / Sunscreen: https://drsambailey.com/resources/videos/natural-health-remedies/does-sunscreen-cause-cancer/
- Shampoo: https://drsambailey.com/resources/videos/natural-health-remedies/heres-why-i-quit-shampoo/
- Most soaps: https://drsambailey.com/resources/videos/natural-health-remedies/better-skin-with-no-soap/
- Deodorant: https://drsambailey.com/resources/videos/natural-health-remedies/the-deodorant-detox/
Thanks for this useful list Rain. I have also stopped buying microwaveable popcorn , apparently the lining of the pouches is dangerous.
Great observation! Have you tried a small popcorn maker? They´re $20-30 and its super cheap to make buckets of popcorn from dried popcorn bags. Here´s an example of a machine: https://www.amazon.com/DAPP150V2AQ04-Popcorn-Measuring-Portion-Popping/dp/B07NWCTXHH/ref=sxin_14_pa_sp_search_thematic_sspa?cv_ct_cx=popcorn+makers&keywords=popcorn+makers&pd_rd_i=B07NWCTXHH&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sr=1-1-364cf978-ce2a-480a-9bb0-bdb96faa0f61-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9zZWFyY2hfdGhlbWF0aWM&psc=1
Reminding me of what a doctor once told me: "If it is in the air or on your skin it is in your blood."
Thanks, great suggestion.
