THE DETOX DILEMMA

May 2

When you think of pollution, i’m willing to bet the first image that comes to mind is muck in the sky. But what if I told you that according to the Environmental Protection Agency, the levels of indoor air pollutants in your home are between 2 and 5 times higher than outdoors. So if you’re a citizen of a developed country who spends 90% of your time indoors, detoxifying your indoor air should definitely be a priority. Today, i’m here to bust down the myth that we must constantly disinfect our entire house with products that are actively harming our health.

This is the third and final installment of my Spring Cleaning Series so if you’re currently in clean up mode like I am, go check out my last two episodes for the full scoop.
