Know the truth about Detergent

Most Brand-Name Laundry Detergents

Loaded with extremely toxic chemicals that could harm you, your family and the environment. Residues of these chemicals are left on your clothes and are absorbed by your skin and evaporated into the air where they could be breathed in. Most would be surprised to find that even ‘Green’ labeled detergents contain toxic ingredients.

Know the truth about Detergent

toxic-detergentsUnlabeled Toxic Ingredients
Linear alkyl sodium sulfonates (LAS)
 or ‘anionic surfactants’,  carcinogenic, reproductive toxins
Petroleum Distillates, carcinogenic, cause lung damage, lung inflammation and damage to mucous membranes.
Phenols, toxic to central nervous system, heart, blood vessels, lungs and kidneys. 
Sodium hypochlorite (household bleach):
 When it reacts with organic materials in the environment, carcinogenic and toxic compounds are created than can cause reproductive, endocrine and immune system disorders.

I recently made the switch to an all organic, toxic free laundry detergent. I noticed the difference right away.  My daughters skin was no longer itchy and she wasn’t breaking out anymore.

This is actually very awesome. I'm glad you posted this. I DON'T use any chemical cleaning products in my house. I use organic, vegan shampoos and toothpastes. 2 challenges I still have to overcome are dish washing detergent, and laundry soap. I'll make a purchase off amazon for this stuff (because they don't sell it in grocery stores... )

I dumped all my cleaners as well and am sticking to vinegar and baking soda for most of my cleaning but I loved this laundry detergent. Not sure if they have it on amazon but you can find it at www.howtolivegreen.ca I stopped using the rinse stuff for the dishwasher and add vinegar to it instead and it does a much better job. Vinegar....how would of thought :)
