A study done by environmental scientists found an average of 200+ chemicals in the umbilical cords of pregnant women after giving birth. That’s a lot of poison being pumped right into our babies!
General hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, bleach, shampoos, and popular daily products are loaded with toxins that have harmful effects on your body!
There are tons of easy and affordable ways to minimize toxins in your life to help keep yourself and your family healthy! I made sure to add some stuff for all ages! Tons of brands make non-toxic kids products.
Why Rid or Reduce Toxins?
Freeing our bodies of toxins allows us to let our body function at its fullest potential! Limiting them and detoxing has been shown to increase longevity in life and to have fewer illnesses!
We are constantly consuming toxins through cleaning products, beauty products (soap, lotions, etc.), perfumes, air fresheners and more! It’s pretty wild when you really think about all the things in your home that have harmful ingredients.
Our skin absorbs so many toxins! It’s so important to be mindful of what we put on the inside and outside of our bodies!
Toxins can interfere with our hormones; damage our DNA (increasing aging and degeneration), and displace structural minerals… which impact our skeletal development and other important bodily functions.
Plus numerous other reasons, but I won’t bore you too much!
Diet also plays a crucial role, but I’m just going to go over the non-toxic products I switched to years ago and that I actually use daily!
My Favorite toxin free products I use!
Lotion and Body Wash
One of my favorite brands that I use a lot is Everyone!
I use their lotion, hand sanitizer, and body wash! Click the links below to see them on Amazon. They use all natural ingredients
Toxin Free Hair Products
My favorite natural shampoo and conditioner to use is from Acure! They are vegan, BPA and Sulfate free. Their stuff smells amazing too! Super affordable (Also sold at target).
Multi Use Toxin Free Soap/ Cleaner (And for Babies)
My favorite general soap to keep around that has a ton of uses, is Dr. Bronner’s. You can use it for washing vegetables, cleaning surfaces (watered down), washing your body (it smells and feels good), shaving your legs (actually is amazing for shaving), baby safe! I mostly use it for dish washing in the sink, washing my veggies and as body wash! You only need a little bit, one thing of it lasts a long time!
- 18 in 1 uses Dr. Bronners (My favorites are peppermint and lavender).
- Dr. Bronners Baby Soap
Non-Toxic Household Cleaners
For household cleaning, I’m sure most of you have heard of this brand, I use Mrs. Meyer’s soaps. It’s all plant based and chemical free! They make general cleaners, natural air fresheners, laundry detergent, candles and more! Comes in bulk refill as well.
Non-Toxic Toothpaste
I finally found some natural toothpaste that I love a lot! It’s from the brand called Jason. They make various different kinds, including strengthening and whitening! Toxin free. It tastes great and works well.

Non- Toxic Skin Care
I’ve used non-toxic skin care products for my face for years and years now! There are so many options that work amazingly!
Mixing with apple cider vinegar instead of water has awesome benefits too! I do it occasionally.
You can also add all of these ingredients to your bath!
Consuming activated charcoal orally is also an awesome way to help rid your body of toxins!
