3 QUESTIONS I GET ASKED A LOT ABOUT ORGANIC CLOTHING AND TEXTILES ARE:
- WHERE SHOULD I START WHEN UPGRADING CLOTHES AND LINENS? IT’S MORE IMPORTANT TO UPGRADE THINGS YOU USE EVERY SINGLE DAY — LIKE UNDERWEAR, SPORTS BRAS, PILLOWCASES. THERE’S A MYTH THAT IS SUPER EXPENSIVE TO BUY ORGANIC CLOTHING AND TEXTILES. HOWEVER, THERE ARE BRANDS AND STORES THAT DO SELL AFFORDABLE GOTS CERTIFIED ORGANIC PRODUCTS. BRANDS LIKE PINK CHICKEN FOR BABY AND KIDS CLOTHING, NATUREPEDIC FOR MATTRESSES, DR MERCOLA HAS A LINE OF GOTS CLOTHING AND TEXTILES; QVC, WALMART, AND COSTCO ALL HAVE AFFORDABLE OPTIONS AS WELL. THE SOLUTION IS DOABLE AND AFFORDABLE. YOU WANT CLEAN ENERGY BOTH INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY — IT’S ALL ABOUT AVOIDING THE TOXINS THAT ARE HARMING OUR HEALTH AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
- CAN YOU REMOVE CHEMICALS FROM CLOTHING AND LINENS BY JUST WASHING THEM? UNFORTUNATELY, NO. IT’S LIKE TRYING TO WASH A CONVENTIONAL STRAWBERRY AND MAKE IT ORGANIC. THE CHEMICALS ARE EMBEDDED INTO THE PRODUCT — THERE ARE TOXIC CHEMICALS LIKE GLYPHOSATE USED IN THE GROWING OF THE PRODUCT AS WELL AS IN THE PROCESSING OF THE PRODUCT. THE SOIL IS THE SKIN OF THE EARTH. IT ABSORBS TOXINS JUST LIKE YOUR SKIN DOES.
- WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST AREAS TO FOCUS ON TO REDUCE YOUR TOXIC BURDEN AS FAR AS CLOTHING? 3 AREAS ARE DENIM WHICH IS VERY TOXIC IN THE WAY ITS MADE AND FINISHED. BABY PJS ARE CONCERNING AS THERE’S A GOVERNMENT MANDATE THEY ARE SPRAYED WITH FLAME RETARDANT WHICH IS ONE OF THE MOST TOXIC CHEMICALS OUT THERE. BAGS ARE IMPORTANT TOO — BECAUSE WE PUT ALL OUR STUFF IN THEM!
REMEMBER: THE GOAL IS TO MAKE BETTER CHOICES — BETTER NOT PERFECT! SO START WITH THE STUFF YOU USE EVERY DAY AND GO FROM THERE.
