Thieves Household Cleaner for starters...
This should be a no-brainer to those of you who’ve followed our wellness journey, but in case you’ve never heard… toxic chemicals lurk in every single one of our household products. Don’t believe me? Download the Think Dirty app and go scan what’s under your sink. You’ll be DISGUSTED by what is allowed in our household cleaners and even more so once you start doing some research into how those ingredients affect our bodies.
From what we wash our hands with, to what we wash our clothes in, what we spray on our yards, the soap we use to wash the dishes, the air fresheners we spray throughout the house, to even the toothpaste we use everyday...chemicals upon chemicals are found in these products and they have direct links to respiratory issues, hormone imbalances, cancer, and many other body issues.
Synthetic chemicals in these products mimic hormones and interfere with how they are to properly work. And because we are exposed to chemicals constantly from the beginning of life in utero to death, our hormones are constantly in a war, trying to do what they were designed to do despite chemicals interrupting their processes. You can imagine the chaos this causes: developmental, reproductive, neurological, and immune disorders.
Here are a few common hormone disruptors:
✔ Bisphenol A (BPA) / found in plastic; some concern for effects on the brain, behavior, and prostate gland in fetuses, infants, and children
✔ Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) / found in manufacturing consumer food packaging; human development concern
✔ Dioxin / formed during industrial processes when chlorine or bromine are burned in the presence of carbon and oxygen, most of American food supply is contaminated; can affect male sperm permanently and reproductive and immune systems
✔ Atrazine / used on majority of corn crops and found in drinking water; linked to breast tumors, delayed puberty and prostate inflammation in animals, and some research shows link to prostate cancer in humans
✔ Phthalates / found in plastic food containers, children’s toys, skincare products, and plastic wrap; linked to hormone changes, lower sperm count, less mobile sperm, birth defects in the male reproductive system, obesity, diabetes and thyroid irregularities
SO! One easy way I got lots of toxic chemicals out of our home was use Thieves Household Cleaner. This one bottle is a concentrate and makes a gzillion 16 ounce bottles of spray. We used the same bottle for over a year, really!!. It’s insane! Not only does it save money, but it literally saves our lives too. During these years into my second half of a century, I especially want my immune system and hormones to be as in-sync as possible and I know switching to Thieves products has been instrumental in this.
Time to retire and replace the harmful chemicals of yesteryear. Protect your home and your family with natural alternatives.
Interesting that this is what I was thinking after spending my morning coffee FB read, and my News feed read. So many problems in our world. Homelessness, over population for our earth's natural sustainability, chronic illness, stress disorders coming out the wahsoo!, and an aging mostly unhealthy population exceeding society's capabilities. Lots of organizations taking up the causes and much $$$ being spent (a good portion of which are being donated, I might add) and still we are daily confronted with.....well does anybody really know.
We are doing all kinds of things in support of finding a cure for "it", not sure how close they are with that. I don't have the chemistry background to understand such things.
...I do believe that prevention, or maybe better worded: (understanding cause and effect) is a hugely major part of the battle. Products, Products, Products.....what is in the products, why do we call them products, why do you need to be a chemist to pronounce what is in your everyday life products? Some of them are created synthetically to make the chemical make up the same as the real thing. Your mind believes but your body was not made to recognize synthetic anything. So it tries to find ways to clear the unrecognizable substances, it is built to remove what is does not need or want. The trouble is when we overload it with too many unrecognizable things and do not give it enough of the things it wants, needs and does know what to do with, then the system goes of the rails so to say.
What is in a carrot? What is in a Peppermint leaf?
Mother Nature and Gary Young went into partnership together over Twenty years ago, she taught him natural chemistry. How to find and see, to nurture and prepare, to preserve and use all that was always provided. He is still taking classes from her and has shared this knowledge and the products through his company Young Living Essential Oils. It has become his passion and to get the word out to as many people as possible he began through word of mouth. To this day the word is still getting out by word of mouth but the people who show others and tell them (word of mouth) about Gary's essential oils and oil infused whole products now are like contract employees with the company. There are hundreds of thousands of them now and they not only have access to in my opinion "THE Best" essential products to use, but they get paid $ and are gifted with free things, just to tell people and share the reasons for the quality (ask me about our seed to seal process), the benefits and possibilities that the essential oils have to offer us. In this way Young Living is able to keep the money within the company, that it would otherwise spend with an add agency and the typical advertising promotional campaigns that traditional businesses use. I did not know but now I do that those are some huge bucks that are not being spent out, but actually being spent in the network of independent contract marketers.
