How Common Toxins Can be Avoided

It is almost impossible to avoid toxins that are present in and around the atmosphere. However, here are a couple of suggestions to help restrict your exposure and create a "Non Toxic Life" for yourself.

- Buy and eat, as much as possible, organic produce and free-range, organic foods. If you can only purchase one organic product it probably should be free range organic eggs.
- Avoid processed foods - remember that they're processed with chemicals!- Only use natural cleaning products in your home.
- Switch over to natural hair care, including shampoo, toothpaste, deodorants and cosmetics.
- Avoid spraying insect repellants that contain DEET on your body. There are safe, effective and natural alternatives out there.
- Remove any metal fillings as they are a major source of mercury. Be sure to have this done by a qualified biological dentist. Although nearly any dentist is technically qualified to replace your amalgam fillings, far less than 95 percent know how to do it properly. Do it right the first time and save yourself the expense and grief. If you don't personally know a qualified biological dentist, many people find one by contacting several of the health food stores in their area and asking the employees who they know. This is typically an excellent resource as they are usually networked quite well in the local health community.
- Avoid using artificial air fresheners, fabric softeners or other synthetic fragrances as they can pollute the air you are breathing.
- Avoid artificial food additives of all kind, including artificial sweeteners and MSG- Get plenty of safe sun exposure to boost your vitamin D levels and your immune system (you will be able to fight disease more effectively).
- Have your tap water tested and, if contaminants are found, install an appropriate water filter on all your faucets (even those in your shower or bath).
