Helichrysum has traditionally been used for its soothing and regenerative effects and has antiallergic, anticoagulant, anti-fungal, and anti-infectious, antiviral and regenerative properties. Yesterday I gashed my hand and immediately applied the helichrysum to the wound. Voila! Instant nature band-aid and disinfectant! I love essential oils- nature's gifts are "heaven scent"! www.yourheavenscent.com

Dont be fooled by the term "Active Ingredients"!
Active ingredient
“Active ingredients” in cleaning products are usually antimicrobial pesticides added to kill bacteria, viruses or molds. Avoid them – they’re hazardous chemicals, and you rarely need them to get your house clean.
“Active ingredients” in cleaning products are usually antimicrobial pesticides added to kill bacteria, viruses or molds. Avoid them – they’re hazardous chemicals, and you rarely need them to get your house clean.
Many common dish and hand washing soaps contain the pesticide triclosan. They don’t clean any better than plain soap and water or provide extra protection against illness. But they do wash down the drain, where they are often toxic to aquatic algae, fish and wildlife. Overuse of products containing pesticides can promote development of bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics, and that does endanger our health.
