The harmful effects of using everyday cleaning chemicals compared to using natural green products

18 May 2022 2:06 PM | Anonymous

Eco-friendly products, aka green cleaning products don't necessarily have to be all natural; just because an ingredient is artificially made doesn't mean it will cause harm to the environment. When using natural cleaning products, it typically won't cause any harm to the environment or an individual which makes is a much safer option when considering cleaning products.

Many cleaning supplies or household products can irritate the eyes or throat, or cause headaches and other health problems, including cancer. Chemicals that include ammonia and bleach are considered harmful. Most natural cleaning products avoid certain irritants, allergens, and toxic substances.

By safely and effectively removing soils, germs and other contaminants, green cleaning products prevent the spread of infectious diseases and control allergens, such as dust and mold, helping us to stay healthy. Cleaning products also enable us to care for our homes and possessions.

One can experience immediate effects such as dizziness or stinging eyes. However, effects of harmful chemicals can take many years to develop, such as lung disease. In an effort to avoid these potential happenings, seek someone that is a user of green cleaning products and can provide information as to why it is the best option for you.
