Naturally Savvy: Andrea Donsky

Andrea Donsky is co-founder of Naturally Savvy, a site all about living a naturally healthy lifestyle using natural and organic products. A registered holistic nutritionist and mom of two, Andrea finds easy ways to use eco-friendly products in everyday life.

How do you eco?

I try and do as much as I can such as eating organic food, recycling, unplugging my appliances and turning off lights. I also Eco by teaching my children to respect their environment by turning off the water when they brush their teeth, recycle and re-use (especially with arts & crafts). We’re most proud of our recent green home renovation project. My husband and I completely renovated our main floor and basement and did it in a non-toxic, eco-friendly way. Everything from the wall insulation to the kitchen cabinets are eco-friendly.

Why did you go eco?

Because I want my children and their children to live in a healthy world. Although the Eco policies of large companies and countries like China and India will have a larger impact, I am an optimist and believe every little bit counts. I also Eco because I want to inspire my children to do the same. As we know, children learn by example so what kind of role model would I be if I didn’t show them how it’s done.

What’s your favorite Eco tip?

Eat as much natural and organic as possible. Use non-toxic, environmentally-friendly cleaning products and stop spraying our lawns with pesticides!
