Toxic Chemicals - How They Get Into Our Body

Toxic Chemicals - How They Get Into Our Body 

Asks the question: "Is your home a healthy home?" Scientists and doctors have discovered that there is a connection between our health and the use of common household chemicals. Since World War II, there has been a dramatic rise in the number of man-made chemicals we use in our homes. The Melaleuca Wellness Guide notes that the typical home now contains over sixty-three hazardous products, that together contain hundreds of different chemicals. Of the 17,000 chemicals that appear in common household products only 30% have been adequately tested for their negative effects on our health; less than 10% have been tested for their effect on the nervous system. Nothing is known about the combined effects of these chemicals when mixed within our bodies.
