Well, that's what the Health Talk was all about today. STOP poisoning our precious ones...

In case, you guys are very much blur.. it all started with the household items that we use.. Of what exact ingredients found in disinfectants, detergents, beauty products...& how would it lead to poisoning our children.

Ok, lets start with an article which I've just read & trust me, I'm typing it out..

Why should three-year old Jason Whitley have died a lingering & horrible death after swallowing 3 ounces of hair conditioner? Two weeks after drinking the liquid, which contains ammonia, the little boy died.

And why should 7 mth old Adrian Gonzales have died? He crawled through a ouddle of spilled laundry bleach which gave him 3rd degree burns on 50% of his tiny body, burned his lungs from the fumes as well. It took him 4 agonizing days to die.


There's more to the article.. But my hand just ache..

Anyway, think this two short articles would be able to let you see on how hazardous the chemicals are.

In on the talk inself, they showed us demostrations on how bleaches are very very harmful.. They made us "donate" some strands of hair & put them in "Kao Bleach Detergent" (guess you guys would know the brand).. In 15 mins, poof!, the hair was gone.. like a magic trick.. but you would just have to see it to believe it..

So to all parents, be it current parents, future parents, & aunties, uncles..& to me, who would one day be a mum.. heehee.. Please, look at the product you buy & remember to keep it the safe place..

PS: I thot "chlorox" is the worst chemical ever, i was shocked that "Pledge" was even worse..
