...living a less toxic life!

• Feb. 28, 2007 - What's on Your Label?

Years ago, the SKULL & CROSSBONES was on the label of many household products. It was replaced with fine print labels. Today, many of our cleaning products have one of the following labels: DANGER Harmful or Fatal if Swallowed This means a single taste to a teaspoon can be FATAL to an adult! WARNING Harmful if Swallowed This means a teaspoon to an ounce can be FATAL to an adult! CAUTION Harmful if Swallowed This means an ounce to a pint can be FATAL to an adult! If you have young children especially, do know what kind of labels your  household products have. In a study by the Columbia Univeristy College of Physicians & Surgeons, "More than 7 million accidental poisonings occur each year, with more than 75%  involving children under 6!" We will  never know the exact figures of accidental poisonings, but we know that the figures are high. So bring out your baking soda, and vinegar and lemon juice. And if you want more effectiveness, you can always try Berrysong products.   They are very cost-effective too!
