Leave Your Shoes at the Door

SIMPLE TIP OF THE DAY:

TAKE OFF YOUR SHOES!

So many toxins, pesticides, herbicides and other chemicals can be reduced or eliminated in your home by taking your shoes off at the door. Use a mat as well, for people who come to visit or if someone forgets. This is a cheap and easy way to reduce the toxic burden for your family. Especially to small children who are crawling around on the floor and putting everything in their mouths! Children have been shown to have exponentially higher amounts of toxins in their systems than adults. This is due in part, to the fact that they are closer to the floor, crawling around, and picking items off the floor and putting them into their mouths.

Quick and easy! Try it!
