I’ve spent a significant amount of time reading about the toxic effects of mainstream cleaning products. This inevitably prompted my search for the best non-toxic cleaning products. And after exhaustive research, I discovered healthy home swaps that actually clean better than most mainstream cleaning products.
During my exploratory mission, two words kept popping-up: ‘endocrine disruptor.’ It turns out, endocrine disruptors are wreaking havoc on our hormones and health. Why? Because most mainstream cleaning and personal care products are chock full of parabens, phthalates, and other endocrine disrupting ingredients. This means while we’re cleaning our homes we’re actually creating a more serious problem. We’re sabotaging our own health and the health of those we love with toxic products. But, the good news is there are healthy alternatives.
I like my products like I like my people — nontoxic.
Healthy Home Swaps – The Best Non-Toxic Cleaning Products
The best non-toxic cleaning products I’ve found are created by Puracy. Puracy products do not have harsh chemicals like: sulfates, triclosan, formaldehyde, parabens, phosphates, MEA, DEA, TEA, chlorine, bleach, animal by-products, allergens, perfumes, dyes or caustics. And they don’t test on animals. In other words, they’ve created some of the safest products you can use to clean your home.

Puracy came to be when two best friends from Austin, Texas couldn’t find effective, plant-based cleaning and personal care products that were gentle enough to use around their newborn daughters. They partnered with chemists and doctors to find cleaning solutions that are tough on grime and yet safe for those with allergies and sensitive skin.
Every Puracy formula is plant-powered, biodegradable, and at least 99.3% natural. Their labels are fully transparent, clearly outlining every single ingredient. Fun Facts: The artwork on their labels helps support Austin artists and with every purchase they donate to Austin’s children and families in need.
Besides the fact that their products work great and they’re obviously thoughtful people, my favorite thing about Puracy is that they offer refills. Their refill pouches save more than 90% in plastic, water and energy. And the bottled products they do offer are recyclable. This means less plastic to overwhelm our environment. Thank you, Puracy.
I can confidently attest, Puracy household cleaners, laundry supplies, body wash and hand sanitizers mean we don’t ever have to choose household product safety over efficacy again.
