A short informational/promotional YouTube video (presented by Dr. Dawn of Delta Janitorial Systems) claiming links between synthetic cleaning-product chemicals and childhood health problems such as ADD/ADHD and autism. The speaker warns that modern lifestyles increase indoor exposure ("less than 5%" time outdoors), cites several statistics ("over 10,000 children" absent daily, "approximately 10%" ADHD prevalence, "285,000 reported cases" of autism), and recommends "green cleaning" methods (low‑fume products, ultra‑high filtration vacuums, dust‑capture techniques) as an equally costed alternative that improves indoor air quality. The video ends with a promotional CTA to claim free related videos at deltajanitorial.com.

Hello, Dr. Dawn here with Delta Janitorial Systems. In this video I'll be explaining how ADD and ADHD are being linked to janitorial cleaning products. Our lives are becoming faster paced and more complicated every day. Think about the proliferation of instant information such as emails, faxes and the Internet. We have access to vast resources of information and we ourselves have become more productive. We can have goods and services delivered on demand and as a result, we in turn demand faster and faster results such as instant meals to instant cleaning products. One of the hazards of our new efficiency is the prevalence of new synthetic chemicals to make our common cleaning products seem faster and more effective. As a result, we and our families are exposed to more of these new types of chemicals. Add in the fact that the typical American spends less than 5% of their time outdoors. This means that we're inhaling fumes and otherwise in direct contact with these synthetic chemicals most of the time. These seemingly innocuous and readily available small bottles of cleaning solutions have clear labels on them warning the user not to touch, breathe or otherwise come in contact with them. They're obviously not safe. Recently, a new medical field has grown to test for and then purge toxins from patients bodies. These patients have been harmed by chemicals found in these common cleaners. Our children are smaller and more vulnerable and logically, they are more affected by these toxic chemicals. Over 10,000 children are absent each and every day from their classrooms as a result of reactions caused by these chemicals. More importantly, many of our children are suffering from neurological problems. The first is attention Deficit Hyperactivity disorder or adhd. This is one of the most prevalent and new disorders diagnosed by in our children today. And studies indicate that approximately 10% of our children have ADHD. Studies also suggest that children with ADHD are more likely to be engaged in criminal activity or substance abuse later in life. Another disorder is Autism spectrum Disorder or asd. This is also simply known as autism and affects children's ability to develop social and communication skills. There's no current data that shows a clear cause of autism, but researchers believe that there may be a link between the 285,000 reported cases and the prevalence of toxic cleaning products in our indoor environments. Green cleaning is a methodology of cleaning and providing janitorial services that improves indoor air quality by using cleaning products that don't give off toxic fumes, by using ultra high filtration vacuums, and by using dust collection practices that don't put dust back into the air like a traditional feather duster or a broom, or even a commercial upright vacuum. Why put yourself and your staff at risk as a result of these toxic janitorial practices? Green cleaning actually improves indoor air quality and costs no more than standard janitorial cleaning. You and your staff deserve the healthiest work environment possible, so don't settle for less.
