My family and I were touched by cancer this past year and I started to wonder what I could do to mitigate risk of recurrence as well as risk to my kids. My sister was way ahead of me in this category – raising a child with special needs has had her researching things for the past ten years. She is so happy that I am finally on board! I’ve read some great books, have made some significant changes to my diet (I am trying hard to influence my children, with only some success – they love their bagels!). And I have slowly started to switch my cosmetic, body and household products over to non-toxic, chemical free options.
While real estate is my true first and forever love, I really want to get the word out about the toxins in our environment. For example, did you know that while Europe bans more than 1300 chemicals from their personal care products the US only bans 11? I have come to love the Ava Anderson personal and household care product line that my sister has turned me on to. Please let me know if you want to learn more about these awesome products, I’m happy to share – but only if you are interested. (You already know I’m not a hard sell!)
