Natural Cleaning

Ok, so for awhile now we've known the difference that natural and clean products have made with Jalyns skin and have been amazed. I was just cleaning the kitchen and was thinking about it again and had to do a little post.

Well, I've been doing research in to my health issues and natural cleaning and foods, etc.... So I decided to slowly start replacing my household cleaners with natural ones that I could make myself.

I have been AMAZED at what's happened. I used to have headaches daily....it took me aback when I would have a rare day without a headache. Since I've been using the natural cleaning products at home I can only remember two headaches, and I have to think hard to remember those! I used clean the kitchen and bathrooms and I would be wiped out for the rest of the day, I'm not sure now if it was b/c the chemicals and smells would give me such a headache that I needed to shut down and sleep or what. But since using these I'm not looking for a place to close my eyes when I'm done cleaning.

A few weeks ago in our church nursery we cleaned the toys with a bleach water solution and my head started hurting within minutes and didn't stop until that evening...I couldn't get the smell of bleach out of my nose or off my hands.

I'm gearing up to start more research into the things I'm eating and drinking to see if that will help with my other health issues that aren't being resolved or even helped to much with the 7 medications I take every day! I have started taking less of the medicines to see what I can do about taking more natural supplements so we'll see what happens with that also.

If you want any info on the things I'm making and using let me know....I'm loving it and would love to share.
