If you’re like most families and households you go out about once a week to do your shopping. You walk through isle upon isle packed full of processed and canned foods. Foods that provide little, if any, nutrition to you and your family. You will usually also take a swing through the detergent and household cleaner isle, tossing into your cart one favorite brand of toxic cleaner, detergent and soap after the next.
How many of us today read the labels and know what’s in those products?
