Tee's Tips
Small changes can make a BIG difference!

Buying Local and Organic
Get to know your farmer. More and more pesticides, herbicides, additives, preservatives, growth hormones are being used. Avoid when you can. If any food is eaten in excess… ie peanut butter…buy organic. Pesticides can accumulate in a child´s body. Any fatty foods hold onto pesticides more than other foods and so fat should be trimmed from animal products. Likewise, fruits and veggies with soft skin can allow pesticides to permeate making washing less effective.
Tee’s Organics
Back in the mid-20th Century cleaning supplies were made at home and chemicals were not widely used. When Baby boomers came to be, and the number of working woman were then increasing, there was even more demand for fast and easy cleaning supplies. In truth, cleaning CAN be fast and easy WITHOUT being toxic. Not up to mixing your own cleaners? In response to consumer demand, I’ve created my own line of cleaning products, Tee’s Organics, made from essential oils and 100% toxic-free.


Plastic Containers
know the numbers
#’s 2, 4 and 5 are ok…#1 is usually for water bottles…do not use again….#’s 3 and 7 are BAD – they contain BPA (Bisphenol A) known endocrine disruptor. This chemical disturbs the hormonal messaging in our bodies Synthetic xenoestrogens are linked to breast cancer and uterine cancer in women, decreased testosterone levels in men, and are particularly devastating to babies and young children. BPA has even been linked to insulin resistance and Type 2 Diabetes. Never use plastic containers in the microwave. Scratches hide bacteria and can leach chemicals into your food.Â
