If you’re just starting your family or maybe you’re down the road with some little ones, you’re probably hearing a lot about environmental toxins. The news, articles, and information can be really difficult to wade through and, at times, they can be almost impossible to decipher. Don’t feel alone.

Here at Pure Living, we’re working to bring to you important information at all levels. Consider the goal of avoiding toxins as a journey (road trip, anyone?), and today is the best time to get started.

Here is one article to help you with that. This introductory article will help you learn about some of the “big bad” toxins you should be avoiding before, during and after pregnancy, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pesticides, mercury, lead, phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA).

The original article is titled “What Toxins and Chemicals Should I Avoid While Pregnant?” and appeared on About Parenting.
