Happy April everyone! Now although the official start of Spring was actually a couple of weeks ago, we don’t think it ever truly feels like Spring until the first of April rolls around! Who else agrees?! So now that April is actually HERE, we think that it’s officially time to stop all of the procrastination and get a move on in regards to those daunting Spring Cleaning Rituals! We promise you’ll feel better once it’s all over….
Spring Clean Your Daily Routine
Alright everyone… I think that it’s – unfortunately – time that we wake up from the deep slumber of winter hibernation and delve right back into the ebb and flow of our daily routine! I know, I know… not the most fun of Blog Topics, but an important and necessary one nonetheless!! Now that our days are longer and brighter, I can’t think of a more perfect time than now to put in a little extra WORK to get the very most out of the products we use to ensure an overall healthier and happier lifestyle!
So in the name of “Spring Cleaning”, today I’ll be showcasing a few of April’s Featured Products and how they can help you cleanse from some of those pesky little ingredients that wreak havoc in conventional grocery stores!
What Ingredients You Should “Spring Clean” From Your Products!
1. Flouride & Parabens! Time for a health and beauty overhaul… Clean out all of your products that contain unnecessary, and potentially harmful ingredients like fluoride and parabens (found in many toothpastes)! It’s especially important to be mindful of the ingredients that go into products designed for children, which is exactly why we’re so excited that Nature Clean has developed a new line specifically for kids! This new line of toxin-free kids products provide a pure and gentle way to get clean without the harsh chemicals! Their new toothpaste line is made without fluoride, parabens, & sulphates!!
2. Added Colours, Flavours & Sweeteners! Nature’s already sweet and pretty! There’s no need to add anything extra to it right?! Because sometimes less is actually more! It can be hard to decipher between the quality lifestyle supplement brands and the ones that are filled with just well…. Filler! Nutraphase is an innovative supplement lifestyle brand that uses premium ingredients that are free of artificial colours, flavours, and sweeteners, & will never compromise on quality, efficacy or taste! We now carry Leanr, CLA, BCAA and MCT Oil Powder from this line!
3. Gluten! Gluten is one of the infamous causes of inflammation! So it’s no wonder that so many people are sensitive to this particular ingredient! Thankfully many companies are beginning to recognize the need for more gluten-free foods and are starting to cater to this lifestyle in a major way – offering foods without gluten that taste great! For instance – we all know about the cauliflower pizza craze… but it was always more on the difficult or tedious side of things to make! Well NOW… Caulipower has developed a frozen pizza with a cauliflower crust that you can just pop into the oven!! We also now carry gluten-free favourites like Otto’s Cassava Flour (which can be used as a 1:1 substitute) AND Quest Protein Cookies, which has no gluten containing ingredients!
4. Harsh Cleaning Agents! We couldn’t do a Spring Cleaning post without actually talking about a cleaning product right?! Conventional Cleaning Products are often PACKED with really harsh, hazardous chemical agents! So we are thrilled to now carry Boulder Clean’s Cleaning Products! Boulder Clean offers up non-toxic, biodegradable, and powerful cleaners and detergents that uses natural essential oils for their fragrances and plant-derived cleaning agents to offer impressive clean that won’t harm the home or the planet. Sounds pretty great to us!!
