So, you have improved your diet and are feeling healthy. Now it is time to have a look at your home...

 

Unfit your carpet
The problem: more than 90% of UK homes have fitted carpets compared to 16% in France. An older carpet can hold up to eight times its original weight in other matter and most are treated with a variety of chemicals to make them stain and flame resistant.

The solution: replace your carpet with hardwood or bamboo. If you can't resist carpet, choose one made from natural and tightly woven material for natural flame retardancy, and ensure that the backing is formaldehyde free.
