Do you throw away lemon peels? Don’t do it again! Put them in a container and add the vinegar

Cleaning homes can be dangerous because the products used can contaminate and make people sick. According to Greenpeace, there are between 70 and 120 toxic substances in European homes that are responsible for the development of all kinds of diseases such as allergies, skin diseases, dermatitis, psoriasis or general toxicity of the body. The solution: Clean naturally.

Bleach, descaling agents, detergents and disinfectants are some of the potentially dangerous cleaning products commonly found in homes.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says that phosphorus, nitrogen, ammonia, and chemicals known as “volatile organic compounds” (VOCs) pose the greatest environmental risks in household cleaning products.

They’re found in many of the products we use around the home: Dishwashing detergents contain 30 to 40 percent phosphorus; Degreasers contain ammonia; VOCs are found in laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, and bathroom disinfectants. Nitrogen is found in floor cleaning products.
