You wouldn’t believe the chemicals we are exposed to in our homes. They are on our furniture, our clothing and in our cleaning products. These chemicals affect our body negatively and may be contributing to the exponential rise of common allergies (like peanuts) in our children. On this episode, with the Founder of Murchison-Hume, we learn what common ingredients are the most harmful to us and our environment. Max Kater shares her story on how these chemicals affected her family and what steps we can all take to limit the toxic exposure in our homes!
