Green Laundry Room: Alternative to Toxic Bleach

Picture
Lets talk about “brightners” and “bleaching”. We all love to have brighter whites in the laundry. But is having brighter whites, at the expense of our families health, worth it? I don't think so. More Americans than not are clueless on the dangers of the household cleaners they are using in their homes. The craze to get rid of the germs and use everything “antibacterial” is out of control.  We are spraying everything with toxic fumes (at the same time, breathing it in) and soaking our children's clothes in bleach (and then covering their fragile skin in it)! We all think we are “disinfecting” the germs to make our children healthier, but really we are damaging their precious health instead.

Is bleach safe to wash our clothes in?

Chlorine bleach releases dioxin, furans and other organochlorines into the air, can cause sore throats, coughs, wheezing, shortness of breath, fluid in the lungs and studies have shown a relationship between dioxin exposure and cancer, birth defects, and developmental/reproductive disorders. Sounds like something you should be using to wash your clothes in, right? And although the above is all true, bleach is still the chemical of choice for whiter whites…but there are alternatives that are much safer for your family that you could be using.”

Did you know?

Chlorine is the chemical most frequently involved in household poisonings and is a potent environmental pollutant. Chlorine is a part of a class of chemical compounds that may cause reproductive, endocrine, and immune system disorders. Chlorine should never be mixed with ammonia. This mixture can generate toxic chloramine gas. Products that contain ammonia include some all-purpose and bathroom cleaners, dish-washing detergents, and metal polishes. Chlorine also degrades natural and synthetic fibers.


After educating myself on the dangers of bleach, Nature Bright is what I now use to clean my families’ clothes.  Its the greener, safer, healthier choice to an unnecessary toxic cleaner. NATURE BRIGHT

Babies. Grass. Mashed potatoes and gravy. Some really nice things can cause some really nasty stains. Some really nice things can also get them out. Instead of noxious chlorine, these natural enzymes and active oxygen rebrighten laundry, de-stain upholstery, and way more. Nice.
