-- How Will You Use This Story? --
(OPEN):
"NATURAL PRODUCTS EXPO WEST" IS HOLDING ITS 30TH-ANNUAL
GATHERING, THIS MONTH [MARCH]. AND, ACCORDING TO
PEDIATRICIAN AND AUTHOR, DOCTOR ALAN GREENE, NATURAL AND ORGANIC
PRODUCTS HAVE COME A LONG WAY, OVER THE PAST THREE DECADES...
(GREENE):
"TODAY'S CONSUMERS ARE MORE AWARE OF THEIR BEHAVIOR--AND HOW IT
AFFECTS THE ENVIRONMENT. THAT'S WHY THERE'S BEEN AN INDUSTRY-WIDE
MOVEMENT, WHERE COMPANIES ARE PROACTIVELY DISCLOSING ALL INGREDIENTS--AS
WELL AS THEIR PURPOSES--FOR THE SAKE OF CONSUMER-EDUCATION. IT'S
ALSO INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT TO PROTECT BOTH OUR HEALTH--AND THAT OF OUR
CHILDREN--BY IMPLEMENTING GOOD-HYGIENE PRACTICES--AND BY USING
DISINFECTANTS THAT ARE EFFECTIVE, WITHOUT THE USE OF HARSH CHEMICALS.
FOR EXAMPLE, SEVENTH GENERATION'S NEW HOUSEHOLD-DISINFECTANT
WIPES AND SPRAYS KILL OVER 99-POINT-99-PERCENT OF GERMS--NATURALLY--ON
HARD, NON-POROUS SURFACES. THESE PRODUCTS USE 'THYMOL'--AN OIL
THAT'S DERIVED FROM THE POPULAR HERB, THYME. NATURAL
CLEANING-PRODUCTS HAVE, INDEED, COME A LONG WAY, SINCE THE FIRST 'EXPO
WEST'--IN 19-81."
