5 More Things You Didn't Know You Could Buy Organic

Many people are actually put off going organic by the amount of chemicals we are actually forced to ingest as part of everyday life. Understandably, some people feel that if they are going to be breathing in cleaning chemicals, having synthetic fabrics rub against their skin and wearing chemical makeup anyway, what is the point in eating organic strawberries? What they probably don't realize is the sheer number of products that are available in organic form nowadays. We go through five unexpected ones, from organic vitamins to organic mascara!
Organic mascara and other cosmetics
The fact that cosmetics are such personal products, applied daily to some of our most delicate skin, has been a major factor in the push to develop organic versions. Now even mascara, previously an invariably chemical-filled goo, has organic versions.
Did you know that you can get organic whole food multivitamins … you don't actually have to do all of that spinach and squash eating every day if you don't have time, but can still get the benefit of nutrients in an organic medium.
Organic clothing
You can get organic tshirts, skirts, dresses, pants, socks, underwear … everything! Organic clothing might be made from organic cotton or even bamboo fibers, and recycled suede and leather are also popular.
There are hundreds of thousands of people all over the world who drink more than one cup of coffee or tea per day. It's a Western ritual, and yet another area where you can make the choice to go organic for your health.
Organic toilet cleaner
Usually the most potent and nasty of all household cleaners, toilet cleaner is available in organic form, utilising natural ingredients that are organically grown and processed. The story of a person who had toilet cleaner spill inside their car, and subsequently had it written off by the insurance agency, saying that it would never be fit for a human to ride in again because of lingering fumes and damage to the chassis, has convinced many to switch!
