This week we are going to dive a little deeper than food into Dr. Brogan’s detox and briefly discuss detoxing our homes. We live in an industrialized nation, and all the chemicals in our environment, including plastics, can also be found in our bodies. For a little “food for thought,” please watch this It’s Okay to Be Smart video.
Dr. Brogan gives some simple, and some advanced detox methods. I won’t go into the advanced methods here, but some simple things she recommends are: filling your house with plants to clean the air. Having your air ducts cleaned once a year. We have never done this, and we lived in our home for 11 years. Drink filtered water, and possibly install under-water filters on all your faucets. Look at the cleaning and self-care products you buy, and try to buy natural.
I have to admit, I’m not great at this. I don’t use natural cleaning or make-up products, but I am committed to trying to change things in my environment a little at a time. This is just part of educating ourselves and doing our part to clean things up around here.
I’d love to hear everyone’s favorite natural products!
