So, what makes this DIY Natural All-Purpose Cleaner my preferred choice to the ready-made products on the market?

Let’s take a look at the ingredients:

• Tangerine essential oil

And that’s it! No hidden chemicals. No ingredients you can’t pronounce. No toxins left behind.

Now, I bet you’re wondering if it’s really effective. Take a look at some of the research on the two main ingredients: the essential oils.

Believe it or not, lemon essential oil has been shown to clarify the air impurities in your home.

In a 2019 study, researchers measured the efficacy of diffusing certain essential oils in reducing the microbial contamination in two hospital wards.

Before the oils were diffused into the air, the researchers measured the amounts of airborne bacteria and fungi in the wards.

Afterward, they diffused both lemon and silver fir essential oils into the air.

They found that two hours after the oils were diffused, the airborne bacteria were reduced by approximately 40 percent.

Meanwhile, the airborne fungi were reduced by up to an astonishing 60 percent! [1]

As a result, this study revealed how both silver fir essential oil and lemon essential oil benefits indoor air quality by reducing airborne pathogens.

Plus, additional research has shown that lemon essential oil is effective against many strains of bacteria, including E. coli! [2]

Plus, simply smelling it has been shown to support healthy weight management, enhance concentration, boost mood, and even promote creativity!
