Product Description
Beth Greer had been living what she considered a healthy lifestyle when a medical crisis prompted her to reevaluate everything—from the food she ate to the personal-care products she used and the environment she lived in. Now, in Super Natural Home, she shows the alarming extent of the dangerous chemicals we unwittingly expose ourselves to every day. As she did in her own life, she invites readers to put their lives under a microscope—to scrutinize what Americans put in and on their bodies and bring into their homes—and to make personal choices that will enable them to “live clean” in a toxic world. The straightforward, solutions-based approach of Super Natural Home—complete with quizzes to help identify and correct potential toxic hot zones—speaks directly to what environment-conscious consumers really need: ultra-practical advice on what they can do right now to limit exposure to the poisons that are endangering them and their children. At a time when impeccable scientific research points to an alarming correlation between common chemical compounds and cancers, allergies, psychiatric disorders, and birth defects, among other serious health concerns, Super Natural Home gives consumers the tools to start protecting themselves and their families.

Life Changing Book August 30, 2010
SLGnyc
Super Natural Home has become my companion. When I have question, my first doc to turn to is "Super Natural Home". To me, this is the best place to find guidance. This book is the wave of the future. It has helped me where traditional medical science has not. Beth Greer's extensive knowledge of alternative medicine helped me to treat my Grave's disease. The doctor was ready to remove my thyroid. I contacted Beth and she suggested an alternative solution. IT WORKED! I am now in remission. I can't thank her enough for sharing her knowledge and research with me. She and her book are a wealth of information. I look forward to another book!!!!!!
Learned so much! August 24, 2010
Barbara in New Mexico
As a two-time cancer survivor, I thought I knew a lot about avoiding toxins and eating and living healthy. Ms. Greer's book is packed with reminders of things I did know (refreshers are always helpful!) and provides a lot of additional data that will help me make even more informed decisions. So many of us are conditioned to opt for the fast and the easy -- at unconsidered -- and sometimes unknown -- detriment to our health and well-being. I appreciate a concise, well-written book that reminds me of what is really important and how I and my family can live well.
Jam-Packed With Information August 10, 2010
Robyn Koondel (Phoenix, AZ USA)
This book is around 200 pages, but feels like 600 pages of jam-packed valuable information for detoxifying one's food, body and home - not to mention an exhaustive list of recommended resources. Beth Greer examines "What Goes In You" and "What Goes On You" and "What Surrounds You" and has created a reference book for "naturalizing" the home and beyond. Although she's the "Super Natural Mom", the book supports not only moms, but everyone. You don't need to have kids to take advantage of this wealth of research that could literally transform not only your lifestyle, but your life! Would make a great gift, too.
Going Green -- the natural way beginning in your home November 18, 2009

The subtitle of the book basically says it all -- improve your health, home and planet-- one room at a time. Going green and living natural seems to be a challenge to all of us, but especially for families. We want our kids and ourselves to be safe and secure. Yet we are unsure which products are just buzz in the marketplace and which products and practices really work.
Greer, who bills herself as the super natural mom is both a journalist and a holistic health advocate. Her book is divided into four sections that include a) what goes in you b) what goes on you c) what surrounds you and d) supporting information.
The foreword is written by the nationally known environmental lifestyle expert Danny So which is a nice opening to the volume.
If you want to go green and do it without lots of additional stress, this is a great book to read and follow. I personally loved the part about cosmetics and enjoyed following the author's advice as I updated my makeup and got into the pink as I went green at least in that part of my life!
Fun advice like Feng Shui tips and where to buy products is sprinkled thruoghout the book so it's easy to read in sections. Just remember you CAN get started one room at a time. Great gift to give for a wedding shower -- add some of the green products that the author recommends to a natural basket you can give to the bride and groom with pride. So politically correct!
Love it and putting it to action! November 1, 2009

I borrowed a copy of this book from my local library. Before I finished reading it, I cleaned my pantry, refrigerator, cubbards and medicine cabinets of 80% of the harmful chemicals mentioned in this book. I love this book because the author does not preach to you. She states the facts and provides practical ways for everyone to go green. Now that I've completed the book, it's tabbed so much that I will have to purchase my own copy. I'm also giving them as Christmas gifts to all my family and friends.
