Are you a TOXIC Mom?

Crunchy moms are taking over the world and I’m here for it.

If you don’t know what a crunchy mom it is someone who considers themself holistic, or someone who tries to stay away from toxic ingredients that are known to be harmful to the human body … such as food dyes, preservatives and fragrances.

I myself grew up with a mom who is crunchy before the term crunchy was even made up or before it was cool.

And the older I get the more I realize how important is because of the difference I see in my children when they are eating or not eating food dyes and preservatives, etc.

But I think we also need to watch ourselves. We can become healthy food vigilantes to a fault.

We, ourselves, become toxic… the very thing we are fighting against.

Micromanaging our husband and our children to a fault.

Yes we’ve noticed the negative affects that a certain foods have on our bodies and our children.

But we also have to learn to live without fear, and we need to teach this to our children as well.

It’s ok to eat a little dye once and a while… or use the heavily fragranced laundry detergent that the hubby brought back from Walmart… or buy the non organic version when the budget is tight.

So moms,

Let’s make sure we aren’t being toxic.

For the sake of our families 🫶
