I have eliminated many things that were toxic to me like the laminate flooring, and gas cooker, and only use

ecological paints
air filter in bedroom
undersink water filter with fluoride remover - just drinking water
organic bedding
organic underwear and night wear
100% cotton clothes mostly organic
no chemicals for personal use or cleaning
eco wash liquid and for dish washing
bare plaster walls at present and no carpets
organic food
natural materials metal free bed futon on floor actually
no electricals near bed


I am looking for some anti- EMF material to make my own shied over bed atm and may make an 'apron to use on computer.

It would be great to have an eco house but can't afford one. I would move anywhere to have less chemicals in the air though the levels can be worse in the house. Open windows daily.

The most important thing is to clean up the bedroom and get as many toxic things out. The bed should be organic though my futon is good quality and outgassed by now.

If there are rugs they can be outgassed in the sun but best with organic carpets or cork tiles. I am stuck with the flooring problem and don't know what to do.

If you do have ordinary carpets which contain hundreds of chemicals, you can buy something in the US to seal them. Formaldehyde is bad but can be sealed. I have turned down a new kitchen from my local council due to the formaldyhde.
