When did you ever hear anyone talk about non toxic living? I certainly don’t remember it being a part of our daily lives growing up in the 80s! Greenpeace campaigners are a faint memory but I never really understood how serious their plight was – and still is!

“80,000 Man-Made Chemicals
Have Been Created In Past 50 Years!
These Chemicals Are Killing You.
Live Life Naturally – Don’t Die Toxic!”

Nowadays non toxic living is firmly on our minds as we are reminded constantly of the dangers to our planet, to our body, to our animals, to our food and water – and to our children.

What is Non Toxic Living?

It is our right to live in an environment that gives us:

  • clean, pure, air to breath
  • organic foods to eat
  • non polluted water to drink
  • toiletries, household detergents, and cosmetics that are chemically free; and
  • non contaminated products that we use on a daily basis

Most people think that reducing the energy we use and the waste that we produce is what we need to focus on to save our planet. This is absolutely true because without a planet we cease to exist. However, there are an alarming amount of man-made chemicals that will destroy us first!

  1. Thousands of tones of chemicals are used in our everyday products – as well as the obvious toiletries and cleaning detergents they are also found in TVs and soft furnishings! A huge proportion of these chemicals have not even been tested for safety!
  1. 80,000 new chemicals are man-made. These chemicals have been created in the last 50 years and many of them have escaped into the environment. 300 of these have been found in the bodies of humans and animals.
  1. Some harmful chemicals are now polluting remote areas such as the Arctic. Our polar bears, whales and the indigenous Inuit people are under threat.
  1. Unborn babies and animals are now being affected by chemicals passed on from their mothers./li>
  2. Despite these hazards, chemical-manufacturing companies are not required to prove that their products are safe before they are used or sold.

YOU can make a difference. There is so much you can do before it is too late! Non toxic living is much easier than you might think.

Non-Toxic Living Guide

Toxic Fact: nearly all drinking water is polluted with chemicals and is acidic.

Natural Health Remedy: drink only filtered alkalizing water. It is pure and is the best remedy for cleansing and flushing out toxins and acids from the body.

Toxic Fact: our bodies are acidic from eating too many toxic, processed, foods.

sNatural Health Remedy: eat a diet that contains at least 80% raw alkalizing foods. Especially ones that are certified organic. Again, they are cleansing and help to eliminate waste and toxins from the body.

Toxic Fact: the air we breathe is polluted.

Natural Health Remedy: buy a quality air purifier for every room in your home. Choose ones that can add therapeutic oils such as eucalyptus to help boost immune system. Also boost your immune system by eating super foods so that your body can perform more efficiently at transporting nutrients and eliminating acids and toxins from the body.

Toxic Fact: cleaning detergents are more toxic than the air we breathe and are 3 times more likely to cause cancer.

Natural Health Remedy: there are natural detergents that are available to do every job around the home, workplace – anywhere. Some are available in the supermarkets but most are available online to buy. Even using vinegar, lemons and limes can be a healthy alternative to your toxic detergents.


Toxic Fact: cosmetics contain harmful ingredients and contaminants. They include – phthalates, lead and mercury, collagen and talc. The toxins are absorbed within 90 seconds into the bloodstream. Over 100 ingredients used in cosmetics are linked to cancer and other diseases.

Natural Health Remedy: buy cosmetics that contain only natural ingredients such as micronized minerals. They also have the added bonus of making your skin look fresh and healthy. Some natural cosmetics also contain antioxidants and natural nourishing moisturizers.

Toxic Fact: skincare products such as eye creams and moisturizers for our face and body – babies too – are full of toxic ingredients that are cancer causing and disrupt our hormones. In fact they adversely affect every system in the body.

Natural Health Remedy: use natural plant based products only. Believe it or not, they have been used for thousands of years and are much more effective at treating wrinkles. Rosehip seed oil is a wonderful example of this.


Toxic Fact: electrical magnetic fields (EMFs) are making us ill. Mobile phones, microwaves, televisions, digital clocks, radios, computers, and more electrical equipment are interfering with our bodies. They interfere with our brain and body functions.

Natural Health Remedy: protect yourself with a Q-link. It contains a small resonating cell within a pendant that basically re-tunes our body to be in harmony. It reduces stress and gives renewed energy and of course protects us from harmful EMFs.

What Does The Future Hold For Non Toxic Living?

We are evolving into a new era of healthcare. We will no longer look to our governments and doctors to provide us with answers to our health problems. We want to learn more about our world and how it affects our bodies and we want to protect ourselves, and our children, from a toxic catastrophe.

There are more than enough natural health remedies available or us to leave super healthy lives. We don’t need or want chemicals in our world.

Mother nature does not approve!

We can all make a difference by not buying toxic products and protecting ourselves from buying only products that contain natural ingredients. They are more expensive, however, this balance will shift as more companies replace their toxic ingredients with natural ingredients as we demand it – want it – deserve it!

We can also make up our own products using organic foods and plants. This can be much more cost-effective and natural.

Put your non toxic living plan into action and live a natural, healthy, life.
