Non-toxic cleaning methods are one of my favorite topics to cover because not only is it easy to DIY, but it can be cheaper than buying standard cleaning products, too. It’s a win-win!

 

Standard cleaning products have a lot of hidden information on their labels, often due to trade secret laws and what the EPA does not require companies to disclose. The result can be products that have a lot of hidden toxins, even if the labels say “green,” “natural,” or “eco-friendly.” 

 

It’s hard to know if what youre buying is truly safe, and sometimes it’s easier to just use ingredients you probably already have in your house. So stick around until the end of the episode to learn my favorite DIY cleaning product ingredients you can make with just a few things from your pantry.
