After a long tiring day all you need is your house, your home sweet home! You dream of the sumptuous food served on the table, the warm fireplace and your cozy little bed. But are you sure you are not inviting trouble for yourself by going home??
Well it might sound scary and even a little disapproving but the fact is that your home might be the 'home sweet home' to millions of germs and toxic elements! "But hey, I just mopped the floor, dusted the windows and washed the linen. So I do not have to worry. My home is safe!" Would you say that? Oh yes you would! But is that the reality? Know for yourself.
Toxic home products
Most of the people are not even aware that they reside in a 'toxic home'. And there have been millions of chemicals linked to the toxic products used in homes. Now it's not to scare you but to warn you that a 15 year study (that was presented at the Toronto Indoor Air Conference) revealed that women who stay or even work from home are 54% more prone to cancer than those who stay away from home! Shocked? Well, it was accomplished that this result was showcased by the heightened exposure to chemicals emitted from the toxic products used for the household.
Not only that, it was also revealed that about 9 out of 10 alleged poison accidents have occurred within homes that use household products. Especially the cleaning substances have been accused of emitting harmful chemicals, the spotlight staying on 'chlorine'. Reports have unveiled over 150 chemicals found in homes liked with allergies, birth defects, psychological disorders and cancer.
The Research says...
Researchers have discovered that over 90% of the toxic vulnerabilities are caused by inhaling the vapors as well as the absorption of harmful particles. The augmenting cases of women reported with asthma are believed to be exposed to hazardous chemicals found in the household cleaning items. It is quite evident that women tend to work more with the cleaning products and thus ending up with high rates of cancers, asthma and several other health issues.
The numerous domestic cleaning products contain harmful toxins that are definitely not listed behind the bottle or on its all attractive and alluring cover. Manufacturers often use the term 'secret formula' and you must have heard them more than often. Haven't you? Do not get magnetized towards those products for if you ask the manufacturer about 'his' secret formula, he will zip his lips and you will realize (after a huge loss) that the so called secret formula were nothing but mysterious toxic and carcinogenic ingredients!
