Toxic-Free Living
Healthy living starts at home! Learn about toxics and potential health risks in common household products.
Green Home Cleaning
Everyday cleaning products often contain hidden toxins that can harm our health, especially children with developing immune systems. Common ingredients in household cleaners are linked to serious health issues like asthma, cancer, and hormone disruption. By switching to safer, non-toxic cleaning alternatives, you can protect your family and reduce harmful exposures at home! Explore our resources to determine effective cleaning solutions that work for you!
Cosmetic Products
Your hair, skin, and nails deserve care that’s not only effective but safe for you and your family! Many conventional personal care products contain harmful chemicals that can contribute to health risks, particularly for children. Through our Preventing Environmental Exposures to Children's Health (PEECH) initiative, we’re here to help you understand these risks and find safer alternatives.
Personal Care Products
When you take time to take care of yourself, you deserve peace of mind in knowing that your care routine is free of toxins. Many oral and period care products contain harmful chemicals that are easily absorbed into the body. Luckily, there are lots of easy ways to reduce exposures and live naturally.
Pesticides and Home Exposures
Pesticides are everywhere and their impact on children's health is a growing concern. Toxic chemicals found in pesticides are linked to cancer, learning disabilities, asthma, and more. Reducing or eliminating pesticide exposures in your home protects you and your family's health while supporting the environment.
About Safer Choice
Finding cleaning and other products that are safer for you, your family, and the environment should be easy — that's why The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) developed the Safer Choice label. Everyone plays a role in protecting our families’ health and the environment. Products with the Safer Choice label help consumers and commercial buyers identify products with safer chemical ingredients, without sacrificing quality or performance.
About 1,900 products currently qualify to carry the Safer Choice label. Safer Choice-certified products are available for use in homes and in facilities like schools, hotels, offices, and sports venues.
