Easy Natural Cleaning Alternatives
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I got this book to make some of the household cleaning I do with more natural products. I liked the easy recipes, didn't feel like I had to look for alot of out-of-the-way products. Most all the products I can find at my grocery or health food store. Even though some of the recipes use bleach or ammonia, the majority of the recipes do use natural products. If there were more books on this topic with lots of recipes, this book may not be that good, but considering what's out there, and the alternative is to use products full of chemicals, I was glad to have the book.
an excellent guide for cleaning the natural way

This book is a great asset for those who want to learn how to clean their homes with natural, low cost home-made products. While this book does include the use of bleach, ammonia and gasoline in a few of the recipes there are always alternatives to these harsh chemicals, she clearly states that these are an option if you want a stronger cleaner however you can still make the more natural cleaner if that is what you want, either way at least you know what's going into what you are using. this book gives you a great common sense approach to household cleaning,indoors and out, one piece in the puzzle of healthy living which is a welcome thing.
