Detoxify Your Cupboards

I opened up the cupboard this morning to get a glass for my morning water and said, "Holy Crap!  Are my glasses ever shiny!" I said this in my head as it was pretty early and didn't want to wake my husband or the dog. I'm not sure if the picture does them justice.  It's like taking a picture of a sunset and later realize you should have bought the postcard.
​Anyway, the reason I was so excited was I just bought this new dishwasher detergent that is natural and safe in an effort to detoxify my home.  The dishwasher cubes were one of the last things I have reluctantly changed over as I was afraid I wouldn't get clean enough dishes.  This is probably due to all those TV commercials where an evening can be ruined with spotty glasses.  Below is a picture of what I am using now.

I bought this second pack yesterday from Save On Foods for $8.99 for 25 tablets but I think I got them cheaper at Country Grocer for around $6.99.  Unfortunately, this is not a Canadian product.  It is manufactured for Ecover in San Francisco and produced in Denmark. The symbols on the front and back indicate the following:

• ​We use naturally derived fragrances in our cleaning products.
• Made using renewable plant based and mineral ingredients.
• Powers away stuck-on food and gets dishes sparkling clean.
  
• Phosphate free for cleaner waterways.
  
• Made of 94% recycled cardboard.
  
• Not tested on animals.
  

​When detoxifying your body and home, go step by step.  If you do not have a chronic illness, you can use up what you are currently using and replace your cleaning products with natural products step by step.  However, if you or a family member has a chronic illness change over to natural products as soon as possible to stop overloading your system.  I changed over to natural because I could taste the detergent in my water glass.  That can't be good.  Step by step you can detoxify your home without hurting your budget.
