As you may know, I love trying new green cleaning products, and I'm so glad to have found Eco-Me because they offer the widest variety of specific eco-friendly cleaning products that I have come across so far.
Eco-Me's products range from Suzy Dish Soap to Dave All Floor Cleaner to Matt Carpet Deodorizer to Kate Wood Polish, and they are all made with ingredients you could find right in your kitchen like olive oil, baking soda, and vinegar. If there is a product in your home that needs a cleaner, I'm betting you can find an Eco-Me green cleaner in their diverse selection of products online.
Not only do I enjoy the diversity of their products, I also greatly appreciate the heartfelt story behind Eco-Me. With all of the cancer in my family, creating a non-toxic environment for all of us is by far one of my top reasons for living greenly, so I can relate to this powerful story about how Eco-Me was founded:

In 2005 Robin Kay Levine's sister was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 35. With no family history of the disease nor an unhealthy lifestyle, Robin and her sister looked to environmental factors as the cause. They did their home work and found this research....The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) stated that the air in our homes is 3 to 7 times more chemicallypolluted than outdoor air, pollution and all! Also, that the average home contains as much as 25 pounds oftoxic cleaning products.The Consumer Product Safety Commission stated that of the chemicals commonly found in homes,150 have been linked to allergies, birth defects, cancer and psychological abnormalities.The Breast Cancer Fund, a non-profit organization, wrote that a substantial and growing body of evidenceindicates that exposures to certain toxic chemicals & hormone mimicking compounds contribute to thedevelopment of breast cancer.Robin helped her sister to clean out every day products from her home and replace them with natural, eco-friendly green alternatives. The best one for cleaning without chemicals was vinegar. It's a food-grade product that reduces 96% bacteria! It was a true "aha," moment for Robin, this was the only way to clean effectively and naturally.Women’s Health Magazine honored Eco-Me as an Action Figure and Eco-Me is now part of the Natural Products Association creating healthy home standards for consumer products.

How can a story like this not inspire us all to find the best green and non-toxic products for our homes?
I have truly been enjoying all of the Eco-Me products that I received, but there are a few that I especially love because I have not found adequate green options in these categories elsewhere:
- Jack Stainless Steel Cleaner did wonders for my kitchen sink. Honestly, I am not someone who scours my sink every day, so when I used this cleaner, I was impressed that it easily removed buildup and quickly brought the shine back to my sink.
- I was thrilled to find that Kate Wood Polish really works! I haven't polished my wood furniture in ages because I hate all of the harsh chemicals in common wood polishes, and my furniture really needed it. We have some antique furniture that has been passed down a couple of generations, and it looks beautiful after using this product.
- Suzy Dish Soap is the answer to my prayers when I need to soak my crock pot. I love using the crock pot, but I hate cleaning it, and Suzy makes it easy!
