Did you know that we are exposed to more toxins inside than we are outside? Daniella Chace, a professional toxicologist, states that while tracking down the triggers of disease, she’s found that most of them are inside our own homes. Toxins can be found in our clothes, toys, pots, pans, skincare, perfumes, and more.

There are more than 30 toxins present in common household products. Isn’t that wild? Throughout the years, Chace has helped many of her clients successfully identify toxins and remove them from their homes. She states that afterwards, they have each noticed huge improvements in their symptoms and overall health.
Home Detox offers a room-by-room guide for healthy, natural, and cost-effective replacements for toxic products in our household. Along with this, Chace also provides natural recipes for creating your own non-toxic cleaning products. If you’re curious as to what some of these ingredients may be, a few of them can be found in my spring-cleaning guide here.
This book should be in every home.

Oh, my goodness this is just what I need! I have been trying to find replacements for toxic products and go more all-natural so this book is perfect! Thanks for the review.

That’s great Lauren! I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for reading!
I like the sound of this one. Have you been following the Gas Stove controversy here in the US? They are saying that using a gas stove creates toxins in the air and they believe it is the cause of many health problems including some childhood asthma issues.
Wow, that’s terrible! I haven’t heard about it here in Canada. Thank you for sharing Wendy, I want to look into that.
That’s awesome it has cost-effective and it does room to room. Interesting and first time to know about this. Thank you for sharing!
I loved the room by room guide, it was so helpful and easy to follow. Thank you for reading Fransic!

I’m glad it’s being discussed on social media, because it makes us more mindful of what we bring into our homes. Thank you for reading Lynn!
Wow do you know other than cleaning products I never really thought about anything else in the home. Thank you for sharing, thought provoking. 😊
Yes, it’s definitely something to think about. Thank you for reading!
this sounds like an interesting read – i personally realized there are so many items that become toxic in our homes. i rarely light candles anymore for that reason – & make sure they are soy ones. i try to use a small amount of cleaners as well and less toxic formulas.
It’s mind blowing just how many toxins are present in our homes. Candles and household cleaners are some common ones. I’m glad that you’ve made some changes. Thank you for reading!
We’re so curious about this book now and what we need to get rid of/how to find alternatives.
I definitely recommend giving it a read. Unfortunately, there are more toxins present in our homes than we think. Thank you for reading!
I love the idea that this book focuses on sustainability and being eco-friendly. I need to check this out and see her recommendations.
Me too! Not only are we making better choices for the planet, but for our health too. Thank you for reading!
You have really piqued my interest with this book! Wonderful review.
Thank you Jodie! I highly recommend giving it a read!
Oh this sounds like an excellent book, especially for the New Year when a lot of people will be having de-clutters and home revamps!
Absolutely, it makes us more mindful of what we bring into our homes. Thank you for reading Jenny!
