PASSING ALONG HELPFUL TIPS… WAYS TO REDUCE YOUR EXPOSURE TO TOXINS:

• Buy wild caught fish (such as salmon). • Make sure your meat products are hormone and antibiotic free. • Install a granular activated carbon filter for your faucet to filter out chemicals such as atrazine. • Use BPA-free water bottles. • Avoid plastics with the numbers 3 or 7 on the bottom. They can leach BPA. Look for the safer 1,2,4, 5 and 6 which are usually BPA free. • Never microwave plastics. • Keep water bottles cool. • Eat fewer canned foods. Choose fresh or frozen. Tuna can be found in pouches that do not contain BPA. • Avoid using non-stick Teflon pans. Scratches in pans release the chemicals inside. • Buy meats from the butcher counter, instead of pre-packaged. Ask to wrap meats in brown paper instead of plastic. • Get rid of commercial air fresheners. Opt instead for natural essential oils. • Read labels! Discard personal care products that contain any form of the word “parabem.” COPY THIS AND KEEP ON YOUR FRIDGE!
