I am always trying to find out how green the products I use at home actually are, and yesterday while searching for information about my shampoo I stumbled upon a wonderful website. Good Guide allows you to search by category (ie. food, personal care, household chemicals, and toys) or you can simply use the 'search' button to look for a specific product.
How it works:
The Good Guide provides you with an overall rating out of 10, which is based on a number of factors concerning Health, Environment, and Society. They also provide you with Ingredient ratings and a list of the products certification and listings. When it comes to foods, Good Guide also provides you with a Nutirtion summary (saturated fats, cholestoral, sodium, and sugars), as well as the Nutrition facts.
On top of all of the product information, the website also provides readers with news and recall updates as well as a list of helpful 'GoodGuide Issues'.
If you are interested in finding out a little more information about the safety of the products you use and their impact on the environment, the Good Guide is an excellent place to start.
