Get A Green Clean

Harmful chemicals and toxins abound in the average cleaning products. As a parent, I was always wondering what was worse…dirt and germs or the chemicals I was using to clean them up! But if you’re looking for a greener way to clean up those juice spills, don’t be taken in by green slogans. Get savvy about labels and learn to separate the green from the toxic. According to David Steinman, co-author of The Safe Shopper’s Bible, look for grain alcohol instead of toxic butyl cellosolve as a solvent; coconut or other plant oils rather than petroleum in detergents; and plant-oil disinfectants such as eucalyptus, rosemary, or sage rather than triclosan.
