Being role models to children that demonstrates that we care enough to take care of ourselves, them, and the planet is important. Through witnessing that our choices have consequences, even in what appears like a minor daily decision on which personal care products we use, will begin to shape their future decisions.<\/p>\n<p>This &#8220;small&#8221; decision actually has a very large impact. Toxins not only effect <a href=\"http:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/green-products-baby-safe-essential-oils-and-natural-nontoxic-baby-wipes-and-natural-cleaning-personal-care-2-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">critical periods of physical development<\/a>, but also influence mental health. In fact, several substances have been linked to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/living-well\/2017\/06\/pops-pcbs-pvcs-pbdes-plasticizersphthalatesoh-stay-healthy-living-world-toxic-alphabet-soup-part\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">common symptoms of children\u2019s mental health issues,<\/a> including ADHD and anxiety disorders. You can read more about this in a summary on these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthandenvironment.org\/uploads-old\/MentalHealth.pdf\">associations here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One abstract from a 2008 article in <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/18621076\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Neurotoxicolog<\/a><\/em>y summarizes these connections and states:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">While proper brain function requires the complex interaction of chemicals perpetually occupied in purposeful biochemistry, it is well established that certain toxic substances have the potential to disrupt normal brain physiology and to impair neurological homeostasis. As well as headache, cognitive dysfunction, memory disturbance, and other neurological signs and symptoms, disruption of brain function may also manifest as subtle or overt alteration in thoughts, moods, or behaviors. Over the last four decades, there has been the unprecedented development and release of a swelling repertoire of potentially toxic chemicals which have the capability to inflict brain compromise. Although the ability of xenobiotics to induce clinical illness is well established, the expanding public health problem of widespread toxicant exposure in the general population is a relatively new phenomenon that has spawned escalating concern. The emerging area of clinical care involving the assessment and management of accrued toxic substances such as heavy metals, pesticides, plasticizers and other endocrine disrupting or neurotoxic compounds has not been fully appreciated by the medical community and has yet to be incorporated into the clinical practice of many consultants or primary care practitioners.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/18621076\"> (source)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now, you can take action to <a href=\"http:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/essential-oils-mental-health-memory-seizure-cognition-rosemary-jasmine-beragamot-oil-2\/\">support our brains and bodies<\/a> with less harmful chemical exposures and more essential oils inhalation.<\/p>\n<p>Honoring our children and paying attention to their physical health, as well as providing the soothing <a href=\"http:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/green-products-baby-safe-essential-oils-and-natural-nontoxic-baby-wipes-and-natural-cleaning-personal-care-2-2\/\">benefit of calming essential oils<\/a>, can &#8220;pay off&#8221; in many ways.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/non-toxic-chemical-free-baby-wipes-natural-baby-care-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here<\/a> to access the article and use the code sent in my E-blast to my subscribers to access it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-inner\">\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Want to Learn More About Essential Oils and Get the Latest Research?<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-839 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2019\/03\/essential-oils-1851027_1280-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2019\/03\/essential-oils-1851027_1280-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2019\/03\/essential-oils-1851027_1280-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2019\/03\/essential-oils-1851027_1280-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2019\/03\/essential-oils-1851027_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 231px) 100vw, 231px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center\" data-fontsize=\"16\" data-lineheight=\"24\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Visit my website<\/a> to get resources to get you started with using essential oils, along with access to exclusive content, delivered right to your inbox!<\/strong><\/h6>\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"vc_btn3-container vc_btn3-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>This material is for information purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prescribe for any illness.
