Natural Laundry Detergent

Why Switch To Natural Laundry Detergents?

When you think about toxic contaminants, you’re probably, like most people, think about outdoor air fumes, garbage-choked waterways or industrial waste.

But the fact of the matter is most people spend the majority of their time indoors… as much as 80-90% in most cases. You spend a great deal of time working, studying, sleeping, eating, and even exercising in very enclosed spaces indoors.

So, wouldn’t it make sense to understand more about potential toxic contaminant risks in the indoor environments you spend so much time in… particularly, your own home?

In fact, the typical home in the US contains anywhere from 3 to 10 gallons of contaminants from glass and bathroom cleaners to garden pesticides and fertilizers…

And sometimes it’s the routine things you do… habits you’re so used to doing a certain way…things you never give much thought to the potential dangers you could be exposing yourself and your family to – like when washing your clothes.

Yes, we are talking about doing your laundry.

To help put this more in perspective, here are a few stats on the staggering amounts of laundry washed and detergent used…

• An average family washes around 80 pounds (30 kg) of laundry every week
• In the US alone, 35 billion loads of laundry are washed every year
• The average amount of detergent used per laundry load = ½ cup… which means 17.5 billion cups of detergent are used each year in the US alone

So, whatever liquid or powder you’re pouring into your washing machine week after week, how do you know how safe any of these detergents are… or are not?

Avoid Harmful Chemical & Switch To All Natural Laundry Detergents

By the time laundry day comes around, you’re probably more concerned with cleaning your son’s Spider-Man jammies and your daughter’s favorite purple shirt than you are with the chemicals swirling around in your washing machine. But switching to natural laundry solutions means clean clothes and better health for both your family and the planet. Plus, making the change won’t compromise the quality of your laundry load—your clothes will be as clean and durable as ever.

The down and dirty truth is that traditional detergents contain synthetic optical brighteners as well as surfactants (which are wetting agents such as emulsifiers, dispersants and foaming products that reduce the surface tension of water). They also have fragrances that pollute our waterways, do not readily biodegrade and can cause skin allergies.

Other common laundry chemicals, including alkyphenols, aromatic hydrocarbons and chlorinated compounds, are probable human carcinogens and hormone disruptors. Many, such as petroleum distillates, naphtha and naphthalene, are petroleum-based, so they deplete a nonrenewable resource, create pollution during manufacture and burden wastewater.
