What goes around, comes around. This old wisdom holds especially true for new issues--issues related to the quality and sustainability of our lifestyles. While all of us want healthy living for ourselves and our families, the foundation of such a desire is clean air and water and good, wholesome food. Yet the choices we make, whether those choices are related to transportation, nutrition or general consumption, often result in the release of toxins into our atmosphere, water or food chain. As responsible, well-meaning people, how do we understand where these toxins come from and the impact of our personal choices? And what should we do to ensure a healthy home? The issue is not too little information, but too much. In fact, there is so much research out there on toxins in our food, water, air and homes that one can completely lose track of where to begin and what action to take. "Dr. Laurel J. Standley," a leading voice on environmental toxins, understands that the overabundance of information can completely overwhelm even the very intelligent. She wrote "#TOXINS tweet" to filter the information out there to bring you the most credible nuggets you need to transform your family's home into a healthier, safer environment. "#TOXINS tweet" is organized into clear sections, by toxin category or source. Household cleaners, toxins associated with pet care, in-utero exposure...all these and more are covered in a clear, stepwise manner. In the lucid voice of an expert and in the tweetable format that invites immediate action, #TOXINS tweet helps you make personal choices on reducing exposure to a wide variety of toxins, ensuring better health for yourself, your family and your planet. "#TOXINS tweet" is part of the THiNKaha series whose 112-page books contain 140 well-thought-out quotes (tweets/ahas).
