Why consider organic for your baby
The Facts: |
- Babies have more sensitive skin than adults and are more sensitive to chemicals.
|
- Their internal organs are still developing and maturing.
|
- Babies spend as much as 70% of their time in their cribs – breathing healthy, clean air is important.
|
- In relation to their body weight, infants and children eat and drink more than adults, possibly increasing their exposure to pesticides in food and water.
|
- Activities such as playing on floors or lawns or putting objects in their mouths, increase a child’s exposure to pesticides used in clothes, homes and yards.
|
|
