We all went the best for our children -the best schools, the best doctors, the best foods...
As our Planet becomes more toxic, we must consider the environment where our children live and the quality of the air they breathe and the water they drink.

All things are interdependent....what we do has consequences.  If we make positive choices, we are able to affect the future.  Also, by teaching our children about caring for the environment...we are influencing their actions as they grow into decision-making, independent adults.

There are more than a billion households on earth.  Homes surpass industry in how they contribute to water pollution.  The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has found that the toxic chemicals in household cleaners are 3x more likely to cause cancer than outdoor air.  In the last 50 years, over 80 000 new chemicals have been produced and the majority of them have not been tested for their long-term impact. A consumer product safety commission study in the U.S. found that 150 chemicals found in the average home are linked to allergies, birth defects, cancers, psychological abnormalities, etc.

Toxins that enter our environment are ravaging our lives -and even more so the lives of our children.
Because children are smaller and still developing, they are far more vulnerable to toxic exposure than adults.

Knowing that Norwex offers a healthier alternative for cleaning and knowing that children mimic every action...  has led to the development of the new Norwex kids line!

Kids love to help out and now you can provide them with their own cleaning tools that are safe and non-toxic.  With Norwex, it is actually safe and educational to let your child touch the cleaning supplies!

When you share your passion for chemical-free cleaning with your children, you are teaching them about making educated decisions as a future consumer, how to protect the environment and how to make decisions that affect health and well-being.

Our mission to save the planet can start with children by offering kid-focused products.  This early focus will teach them to grow up cleaning without chemicals.  Cleaning with microfiber and water is how you clean.

Happy Cleaning!

Fruits and vegetables are sprayed with toxic chemicals to protect them from pests and fungal attacks.  They are coated with a wax/oil to prevent the produce from decaying and to preserve the quality and appearance of the produce during transportation.  This waxy layer is also a host for microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Also of note for persons with food allergies...the wax that is used on fruit may contain SOY or MILK ingredients.  

The Norwex Veggie cloth is back!  It has a rough side for scrubbing and smooth side for polishing.  It cleans the dirt off potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, and debris from fruits and vegetables.  This cloth has been scientifically proven to remove the coating and nasties from  your fruit and veggies!

Norwex also offers a Fruit and Veggie Wash called Fresh Wash.  This specifically formulated fruit and veggie wash is a safe, effective alternative for cleaning fruit and vegetables.  This product will also protect fruit from damage during storage or transport and extends produce shelf life by 2 to 3 times. To use: Mix one capful in 500 ml of water, soak your fruits or veggies for 5-10 minutes, rinse well and enjoy!

Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Chemical Residue Sampling Program.

 

Now go and enjoy the wonderful Fall season and pick some apples!

....  it seems that with the change of seasons we are inspired to refresh our spaces and clean house!   I personally am feeling the itch to get out my Autumn decorations and put away the Summer clothes, shoes and toys.




Fall is starting off great with the September specials from Norwex.  I have never seen so many great deals at once!   If you are a fan or have been wanting to try Green cleaning without chemicals, this is  a great time to try it out!

Traditional chemical cleaning products are expensive, TOXIC and less effective than Norwex

I was very excited and proud to see the interest in Norwex at my friend Carrie's "Women's Expo" that she hosted last week.  As always, Carrie threw a great event with fun, prizes and of course yummy nibblies and bevies!   Thanks Carrie!   Anyone who knows me, knows that I am not a salesperson and my approach as a Norwex consultant has always been as a teacher to share my love and passion for chemical-free and allergy-free living.   Carrie's event was great because the guests were so interested in Norwex and had heard of it before.
The hot items were the mop (if you have hardwood floors you will LOVE the mop!), the Fall Dishpack (which I am recommending as a teacher gift for Christmas this year because it is such a great deal! and great bang for the buck), and the Fall Cleaning Pack (my favourite!).
