For those enjoying the health dividends of making the switch to organic veggies and fruits, I would recommend using organic cleaning products.  In most store bought cleaners, you will find a whose who of toxic chemicals.  PURE AirMD is a line of organic cleaning products that are natural, purely botanical- based line of products that effectively clean while promoting well being.  Synthetically fragranced and chemical based cleaning products have no role to play in today's world. No one should have to suffer negative health effects caused by products used to clean their homes.
