Oven and Stove Cleaner
Confession: I hate cleaning the oven and stove.
Alas, it must be done.
I would like, however, to propose that it no longer has to be done with poison.

Oven + Stove in the Store
Sadly, there’s some bad news on the oven cleaner front. There are currently no safe cleaners in the stores.
This means the entire market is saying it’s impossible.
Take a look at this:
Generational Poison
Corrosive alkalis (like Easy-Off) for your oven is poisonous.
POISONOUS!
How can oven and stove cleaners affect your body?
1.) Respiratory System:
While using them, breathing may be difficult due to inhaling the fumes. This is irritating to the lungs and can exacerbate any respiratory issues a person may have.
2.) Ears, Nose, Throat, and Eyes
Oven and stove cleaners can cause throat swelling and pain. It has also been found that it can create burning in the nose, eyes, ears, lips, or tongue. In serious cases, vision loss was reported.
3.) Digestive System:
Everything from general abdominal pain to bloody stools and vomit have been reported as concerns when it comes to oven and stove cleaners. It’s also alarming that breathing in these particular toxins can burn to the point of creating holes in the esophagus.
4.) Circulatory System:
When it comes to our heart and blood flow after using these poisonous products, research shows low blood pressure developing rapidly, severe change in blood acid level leading to organ damage, and even collapse.
5. Skin (Our Largest Organ):
We know that these cleaners can go from simple skin irritation to burning our skin all the way to holes in the underlying tissue.
6.) Cellular Level:
Toxins enter the body when we breathe them or touch them and can cause damage to our DNA leading to sick, malfunctioning organs. The chances of our cells turning cancerous increase a ton when we use products like stove and oven cleaner.
