Why Are Nontoxic Alternatives Important To Me?My name is Jolene Snyder. Nontoxic Alternatives are important to me because I want to help other people live longer healthier lives. While growing up, I remember helping my mother preserve organic vegetables from our family's farm. My Mennonite heritage taught me much about healthy natural living. My mother baked most of our bread, sewed many of my clothes and hung most of our family's laundry outside to dry. Many items were recycled or used for other purposes. Those were simpler times when we wasted less and perhaps placed more value on the simple things that we had. By today's standards, we may have seemed poor, but I always remember having an abundance of fresh farm food on the table along with many other things I came to appreciate later.

I decided to do more research about environmental issues that may be affecting public health. Before long, I realized that I could not remain silent about the information I was learning. Why I Built This SiteWhat I was shocked to discover, was that many of the products that I had begun using in my home were riddled with dangerous chemical ingredients that are directly linked to cancer and hormonal disruptions, along with breathing problems and other serious health issues.Why was I not aware of this when I thought I was being so conscientious about my family's health? Why aren't other people more aware of this issue? I think it is because the information has not been readily available for us as consumers to read. We tend to assume that the FDA is going to protect us and that companies will take responsibility for marketing safe products. I believe there are many consumers out there who like me, would like to know about this information. My hope is to help other people learn more about how they can avoid environmental toxins in their everyday cleaning products and personal care products as well as many other home products that they use each and every day. My goal is to:
