NON TOXIC LAUNDRY SWAPS 🧺✨

COMMENT “LAUNDRY” + i’ll send the link to my favorite non toxic laundry detergent straight to your inbox 🙌

conventional laundry detergents can contain toxic ingredients like sodium lauryl sulfate, phosphates, fragrances, dyes, formaldehyde, 1,4 dioxane + others. in addition to being endocrine disruptors, these ingredients can cause allergies, respiratory issues and skin irritation. and 1,4 dioxane is a potential carcinogen

so skip all the toxins, and try my favorite non toxic option that works great, smells like tide + that even my husband loves!

it’s safe for babies + kids, and is gentle on sensitive skin

plus it works with both HE and standard washing machines, is effective in cold water + is septic safe

and through the end of november if you buy 300 loads you get 300 free + 50 free loads of oxyboost (non toxic bleach alternative), it’s their best offer of the year for black friday

HOMEMADE DELI MEAT ✨

full recipe below, but COMMENT “DELI” + i’ll send it straight to your inbox 🙌🏻

deli meats contain several ingredients that are bad for your health, including nitrates and nitrites, phosphates, processed additives + chemical contaminants

you especially want to avoid nitrates, which are preservatives used in deli meats to prevent bacterial growth and preserve color. when digested, they can convert into nitrosamines which are known carcinogens

but don’t be fooled by meat labeled as “nitrate free”. these meats use natural sources of nitrates, but they can still convert into nitrosamines in the body

in fact, deli meats have even been classified as group 1 carcinogens

and on top of all that, let’s not forget about the recent listeria outbreaks in deli meat 🦠

so next time you’re craving a deli sandwich, try making your own deli meat with 3 simple ingredients instead

YOU NEED
(use organic ingredients when possible)

* 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
* 1/2 tbsp salt
* 1 tbsp honey

WHAT TO DO

- add ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth
- coat your deli meat press with some avocado oil spray, then put mixture inside and close the container with the spring, lid + thermometer
- fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil, then place the deli meat press into the pot and let simmer for about an hour, your meat thermometer should read approx 160 degrees
- let cool, place in the fridge overnight, then remove, slice + enjoy!
