    Try the Nakeds range in Boots, they were doing 2 for 1 on shampoo and conditioner, 98% chemical free etc and smell lovely. I think Neals Yard are good too. Our local Boots have just started stocking Origins and that is very natural. Alternatively try searching for natural products on google and you should get a good list. Cheers.


    How can ANYTHING be 98% chemical free??? :confused:

    What is it then? Antimatter?????

    Deals - unless you turn your house into a perfect vacuum it will never be chemical free!

    Water is a chemical.

    Oxygen is a chemical.

    And organic sausage would have a chemical formula!

    You seem to be on a mission to go completely natural.

    Belladonna - Deadly Nightshade - was used as a cosmetic in victorian times (Belladonna means beautiful lady. The atropine in it dilated ladies pupils to give them a wide eyed look) 100% natural and organic - but it will make you seriously ill (Stop your heart) if used regularly!

    On a lot of 'Natural' products, you see 'free from artificial sweeteners'.

    Doesn't mean it's not stuffed full of sugar though - which is a 'natural' product. And being responsible for tooth decay, obesity, heart disease and diabetes, it is probably just as dangerous, if not more dangerous than any artificial sweetener out there with whole websites dedicated to their dangers and conspiracy theories of how they were ever allowed into our food!

    I would calm down your internet searches a little, and chill out! Be sensible in your decisions of products to use and to avoid. It's not as simple as natural = good, artificial = bad.
    How to find a dentist.
    1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
    2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
    3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
    4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.

    noticed the difference since we have changed the foods we eat and the products we use. i understand your point but i lived a part of my life in the countryside anyway where only as natural as can be products used. i do understand the point you are making!

    JASON products are good. So are Dr Bronners, but you must dilute dilute dilute.
    Getting there... A deal at a time. :T
