Preparing for a new baby is overwhelming at the best of
times. Feelings of excitement and anxiety mix with the universal urge to
protect a person you haven’t even met yet.
Unfortunately, protecting babies from toxic chemicals is
more complicated than ever before. Today, the link between environmental
chemical exposure and many diseases is well established. And many parents
wonder what this means for their families. How do the products we buy
contribute to our children’s chemical burden? Do our day-to-day routines
contribute to household toxicity and harm our children?
The answer isn’t pretty. And while it’s impossible to cut
the toxins in our lives to zero, it is possible to limit our children’s
exposure.
