If you do a Google search for "Toxins in the home" you will get some wonderful results - that would be a great place to start.
You have addressed a vital topic for anyone concerned about health, longevity, beating and warding off chronic illness AND childhood development.
Much of modern chronic illness can be traced to toxins and contaminants, along with improper nutrition, that result in disease being able to get by our natural line of defense, our immune system, and gain a foothold
Our immune systems were wondefully designed by nature to ward off and beat illness, but they were not designed to beat the multitude of toxins and contaminants we have introduced into the products in our homes, the food we eat, air we breath and water we drink. At the same time as we have become increasingly exposed to such toxins, our health and immune systems have been further hampered due to our soils being depleted and our crops exposed to chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and we have increasingly come to rely on patently unhealthy fast foods and the foods on the grocers shelves which have had the nutition processed out and harmful additives processed in for shelf-life, taste, texture and color.
Ridding our households and our bodies of toxins and seeking better nutrition are keys to having healthy lives!
Now, in regards to childhood development - the lack of nutrition our children get and the toxins they are exposed to effect every area of their health, and the result is that lack of attention to these vital areas condemns our children to impaired physical and mental health perhaps for the rest of their lives.
Many people fail to realize that the brain is an organ just like the liver, heart, kidneys, etc. - and that it needs proper nutrition and protection from toxins to properly develop and function properly.
I, for one, think that just as it is no accident that cancer and other chronic conditions are largely modern phenomenon directly related to toxins and improper nutrition, so is the explosion of mental conditions we see diagnosed for our children which were largely unheard of in my youth: ADD, ADHD, Bi-polar, manic depressive, and on and on.
By all means, seek out the information on toxins - and nutrition too - and spread it among your peers. I applaud what you intend to do!
Live long, live healthy, live happy!
