Back to Basics – Ajit Patel Sanda Wellness
From detergents and polishes to antibacterial wipes and sprays, the average modern home is full of a myriad of different cleaning products. The problem is that these tend to be full of chemicals which can be harmful for the environment and not too great for our bodies either. Many people find that they suffer from headaches, tiredness or even skin rashes after using mass-produced chemical products. In addition, many are unsustainable being made from petrochemicals and can contaminate our water systems when they are washed down the plug hole.
But don’t worry – there are plenty of natural ways to keep your home looking and smelling great whilst being healthy, cheap and environmentally-friendly. Here are some ideas:
Vinegar White distilled vinegar can be used for everything from cleaning kitchen surfaces to removing mildew from your shower curtain.
Bicarbonate of soda A small bowl of bicarbonate of soda placed in your fridge will keep it smelling fresh.
Lemon juice Lemon juice is ideal for removing stains from various surfaces including worktops and white linen.
Tea Tree Oil Tea tree oil is an essential oil with antibacterial properties, making it ideal for a wide range of uses around the home. It’s particularly good for dealing with mould.
Soap Nuts If you’re looking for a natural, chemical-free alternative to laundry detergents, try soapnuts. They’re made from dried fruit shells and as well as being environmentally-friendly, they’re also great for allergy sufferers who may find traditional detergents too harsh.
