Ok, in case you needed an excuse, here it is: Using household cleaning sprays and spray air fresheners just once a week can increase your risk of developing asthma
This is an interesting article. I'm not a big fan of research studies. One week they are promoting the benefits of chocolate, or wine and the next week another study is published with opposite outcomes. But, THIS study I am holding on to. THIS study I can use to my advantage!
Yes, I know there are plenty of "natural" cleaners out there. I don't want to hear about them right now. Let's all relax this week and not do any cleaning until the next study comes out to tell us that the dust and germs we are leaving behind by not using the cleaners is worse for us than using the cleaners themselves. Cuz you know that study is coming! How much time, energy, and money are we spending on these research studies anyway!
Right now I want to revel in the thought that science is saying (at least for a week or two) that just maybe I shouldn't clean my house.
