Years ago, it was the cause of unknown ailments. Chemical sensitivity was written off as a "sickly individual." We are now learning of the serious impact of years of exposure to powerful chemicals on the body. An acute issue means an immediate reaction, but a chronic issue may have been wearing down our immune system for years.
Start with the cleaning and household product that you purchase. Move away from anything that have harmful chemicals, fumes, and reactive agents. Like smoking, if you quit, your system will have a chance to get better. Fragrances, additives, and petroleum based chemicals are not generally good for us.
This is what Green Clean Institute has sought to do for the public. By carefully reviewing the ingredients of all approved products, the customer can trust that nearly every known problematic ingredient is missing.
We know that the "Sick Building Syndrome" can make many people ill, but "Building Related Illness" may only affect a few of the more vulnerable people in the office. These are legitimate issues that require proactive solutions.
