Is there any proof that chemical based housed cleaning supplies cause allergy problems?My allergies are always irritated, and I am starting to look at more natural solutions for everyday living in hopes of solving the problem. Does anyone have some successful and "green" recipes for home cleaning supplies?

YES!! I don't have much experience with chemical sensitivities, but check out the yahoo group Foodlab. They are quite familiar with this topic, and I see discussions all the time about it.

Terri: Good for You! Household cleansers are loaded with toxins. Many of them contain formaldehyde (so do lots of your personal care items like shampoo too!!!).
I will give you a link to an article about the dangers of formaldehyde and you will certainly start reading labels. I will also give you a link to some stuff that I use to clean my house. It is made from soy. Turns out that soy is an awesome cleaner (works really well) and I like the fact that soy is a renewable resource unlike the ones made from petrochemicals. The added bonus is that they don't have those awful smells!
