Customer Ratings:

• Excellent book that gives easy remedies.. I had no knowledge of all the toxins in my home, and while reading this book became appropriately horrified. This book is quite thourough. What makes this book excellent is that in the face of potentially overwhelmingly disheartening information, the author s solutions make changing your house easy and manageable. The author not only tells you what s dangerous and explains why, but then gives you practical advice on how to get along without that toxic product: what to substitue for it, and how to make or where to find the substitute. So, the reader can just make a list and, with a few phone calls and trips to various stores, can significantly reduce the levels of toxins in their home. And the options involve both making products or buying them, so if you are like me and want to live more safely but don t have time to create your own dishwashing liquid or furniture polish, you know where to buy them. I m really glad I came upon this book and I highly recommend it.
