<description>&lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;This week Tee is thrilled to welcome Andrea Dahr for a chat about the life-changing power of switching to clean products. Andrea is a clean living advocate and founder of &lt;a href= "https://www.switchnatural.com/switch-natural-app"&gt;Switch Natural&lt;/a&gt; a revolutionary app that helps women &amp; men live cleaner lives by altering daily product purchases and quickly and easily identifying any potentially harmful ingredients or toxic chemicals while providing relevant research and product information. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;When Andrea found herself in a high-risk pregnancy with twins in 2014, she was determined to eliminate additional health risks by switching to non-toxic cosmetics, cleaning products, and kids products. Upon learning that these products are largely unregulated, Andrea started educating herself on ingredients and avoiding those associated with adverse health effects. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;Tee and Andrea’s chat highlights the misleading nature of ‘clean’ labels, the cumulative exposure to toxins, and the hidden dangers of ingredients listed as 'fragrance.' Andrea also offers practical tips for reducing indoor pollutants, choosing non-toxic household and personal care items, and understanding ingredient lists. The episode also contrasts U.S. and European chemical regulations and emphasizes the need for incremental changes and community support to reduce toxic loads and make healthier, informed choices.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Connect with Andrea: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.switchnatural.com"&gt;Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;a href= "https://www.switchnatural.com/switch-natural-app"&gt;The Switch Natural App&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;a href= "https://www.instagram.com/switch.natural/?hl=en"&gt;Instagram&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;a href= "https://www.switchnatural.com/home/non-toxic-cleaning-guide-3hjfm?rq=guide"&gt; Free Guide&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;a href= "https://www.switchnatural.com/theswitchpodcast"&gt;Podcast&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Follow Therese "Tee" Forton-Barnes and The Green Living Gurus:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;a href= "https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__thegreenlivinggurus.com_shop-2Dtees-2Dorganics_&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&amp;r=-NZqXtNmF7EHBU3BxYOJGxbi49tG9QKc5VsNa7-0UG0&amp;m=ess50ZIhFvmSEqU1lgdRQaKJaYQxhI4FElOAA3VHRhi3MhtRyMTjLzc6Lo-YFnJ_&amp;s=oJyvKjuXZzzsb_3UxjRvgYIk1JtlvGdjb2t-sDSi0to&amp;e="&gt; Tee's Organics - Therese's Healthy Products for You and Your Home:&lt;/a&gt; Check out these incredible products made only with purified water, seven essential oils, and vinegar.

Description

This week Tee is thrilled to welcome Andrea Dahr for a chat about the life-changing power of switching to clean products. Andrea is a clean living advocate and founder of Switch Natural a revolutionary app that helps women & men live cleaner lives by altering daily product purchases and quickly and easily identifying any potentially harmful ingredients or toxic chemicals while providing relevant research and product information. 

When Andrea found herself in a high-risk pregnancy with twins in 2014, she was determined to eliminate additional health risks by switching to non-toxic cosmetics, cleaning products, and kids products. Upon learning that these products are largely unregulated, Andrea started educating herself on ingredients and avoiding those associated with adverse health effects. 

Tee and Andrea’s chat highlights the misleading nature of ‘clean’ labels, the cumulative exposure to toxins, and the hidden dangers of ingredients listed as 'fragrance.' Andrea also offers practical tips for reducing indoor pollutants, choosing non-toxic household and personal care items, and understanding ingredient lists. The episode also contrasts U.S. and European chemical regulations and emphasizes the need for incremental changes and community support to reduce toxic loads and make healthier, informed choices.
