I typically use a handful of baking soda in the washing machine (sprinkling it around the edges so it gets mixed in well) and put the vinegar in the place where the bleach is supposed to go. I find that our clothes come out very clean and without a lingering smell. I highly recommend it

I stopped antiperspirant back in 1985. I found out about this when I heard about the aluminum. I stopped using cleaning products because I hated the smalls back in the early 1990's, stopped the toothpastes a few times because they seemed to bother me until 2009 when I heard about sls and fluoride. I also never use anything that has unscented to it. Most scents are actually poisonous. A doctor pointed that out to my husband and I also in 2009. We are so much better off without the soaps (which I make our own now) and detergents. We do not need all those cleaning products. I have actually been made fun of in grocery stores for buying multiple gallons if distilled white vinegar, multiple boxes of baking soda, washing soda, and borax. I just don't care. I buy in bulk when I can afford it. I use organic, cold pressed coconut oil for deodorant and moisturizer. I sometimes use it in making my toothpaste as well. Get off the chemical track in your homes and fir your family members.
Loved this video! I learned a lot and have also been working on moving our household to non-toxic products. Thank you for sharing and teaching. A couple of thoughts…I have read that vinegar can degrade the rubber hoses in a washing machine, so I don’t use it in the washer any longer. As you pointed out, there are good natural detergent alternatives. I also love Castile soap and use it in many different ways. I have read that essential oil-containing products like some of the Castile soaps (except unscented) are better stored in glass containers than plastic (essential oil can break down the plastic over time), so I bought a glass foaming dispenser bottle. Costs a little more. Take care!
Good job figuring this out. Due to health issues 20+ years ago my wife learned about all the toxins in everything. We have been using baking soda, vinegar, non fluoride toothpaste and all of the alternatives you discussed for decades. The oligarchs only care about profits. Make it cheap, sell it high. Make money off the illnesses of the people. It’s all about the dollar, greed.
Good video! Good content. We use some of those products. We use essential oils and *less*harsh cleaners in our home. I’ll make sure to forward this video to my wife; perhaps there are things she’ll see and learn to make our lives better.
Excellent thank you. Now what about 100% cotton clothing? trying to get away from the Polyester. 100% cotton clothing is really hard to find. or fine 100% linen. Thanks 😊
@@CountryLivingExperience I started a couple of winters ago getting the Merino wool socks and I cannot believe how soft and comfortable they are. Right now I'm living in Florida so we don't get a lot of opportunity to wear them but we have recently.
I began switching to safer cleaning products about 10 years ago when my allergist ended my monthly maintenance shots and I began having serious reactions to everything around me almost immediately. Cutting down what had been a constant exposure to hundreds of toxins did the trick. Now I may get a sniffle when exposed to ragweed or other triggers, but my body no longer goes haywire. Just replace toxic products with a safe products as they run out. No need to throw out everything at once. You won’t be sorry!
Thanks for this video and pointing out these better options to toxic products. We are moving to a more organic lifestyle and purging traditional products for safer ones. Amazing how much better you feel, eating clean, and cleaning clean!!!
I'm changing my household habits. The modern lifestyle is almost completely unsustainable and a pillaging of the earth. Thank you so much for this video! Its super helpful. I appreciate your channel very much. Thank you brother!
I used to have the same issue with my mouth and didn’t know what caused it. I did know that fluoride in my toothpaste wasn’t something I wanted, so I switched to a natural toothpaste. It never dawned on me that the pealing stopped because of it. I thought it was something spicy or acidic that did it. Thank you for that info.
💕💗💕🙏🙏🙏 Thanks Eric for sharing the products you use and the cost savings. The improvement of your health, is the most crucial. Have a blessed day, in the Lord Jesus Christ!!!💕💗💕
All antiperspirant has aluminum. Antiperspirant means it stops you from sweating. So your armpit stays dry. As you heard in this video it's because the aluminum clogs the pores and doesn't allow the sweat to come out. So where does it go? Think about that one. No deodorant has aluminum because it doesn't stop you from sweating it only stops you from stinking hence the name deodorant. That's the difference between the two. Just wanted to throw that one out there.
Great video! I've made the decision to go this route of cleaning out all of my harmful products for these alternatives today. To all the nay sayers, true, we can't escape them all, but every little bit helps!
I am so glad you are doing this video! I love NOW brand supplements but hadn't seen they have a toothpaste. We just found Schmit's deodorant and we love it! Lasts so much longer, smells lovely and works great. We love the Dr Bonner's peppermint castille soap too! Laundry is clean and the peppermint removes the bad odors from Dad's nursing home laundry. We also use wool balls in the dryer and scent them will all natural essential oils for fabric softening. Also great for those who don't like scented laundry items - just skip the oils we are adding. Just purchased the orange oil you showcased and can't wait to try it out on our floors. Now what to use in the shower to soap our booties that as healthy as possible for the all natural soaps we use?
@@MyCabinLife I don't. I just squirt it in as the washer is filling up but I have an old fashioned top loader. I bet if yours is the other kind you just treat it like liquid detergent though. It doesn't take a whole lot because it is concentrated. I love smelling the peppermint on my sheets though mixed with the sandalwood essential oil I put on my wood balls for the dryer. So soothing.
@@CountryLivingExperience I had never thought about using it in the shower but now I really want to try it. The almond smells delightful too. But I meant loofah? Just your hands to scrub down? Silicone scrubber? Reviews feel these don't suds up. We have been using the mesh netting type loofahs. Can't figure out what feels like it will stay clean and isn't poison. We have been making a lot of changes and keep finding more ways we can do better. I had bought all natural bar soaps but just miss the feel of a good scrub. lol
Great info! I've moved in that direction with everything I eat and slowly doing it with other products. I use the Castile soap but haven't used it on my hair. I think I'll give it a try. I really thought it would be too drying but, knowing that your skin is your largest organ it's high time I further commit. I use apple cider vinegar in my litter box in addition to using it to clean other things. It's so weird how little I buy from the grocery stores now. I cringe at what I bought 20 years ago lol.
Personally, I don't like using castile soap on my hair - I have fine hair and it gets too dry and stringy (odd I know) using castile soap. I only use castile soap on my skin during the summer because it dries out my skin in the winter months. I have found a brand called "Take Haven" that is a shampoo bar that I like. I use (diluted) apple cider vinegar as a rinse to adjust the pH so my fine hair doesn't get static. Some have recommended Dr. Bronner's Sugar Soap for hair instead of castile if you want to stay within the Dr. Bronner line.
@ Everyone is different as are their locations (I live in Colorado - semi arid here). I found a better solution but even Dr. Bronner's recommends their sugar soap for the hair over the castile soap but they don't poopoo the idea of using castile on the hair either.
A worthwhile video. Perhaps I missed use mentioning..... What do you use at the kitchen sink to degrease and scrub those roasting and frying pans? I use a highly diluted dawn dish soap in a HD spray bottle. I haven't read the label on the dawn soap. What do you use to clean windows? Thanks
Hi with all the other links I don't know if I missed it but the other videos that you mentioned are they pinned down below? Or do I have to watch the video again?
I'm using an organic castor oil and olive oil soap bar for all over washing. Works great.
I typically use a handful of baking soda in the washing machine (sprinkling it around the edges so it gets mixed in well) and put the vinegar in the place where the bleach is supposed to go. I find that our clothes come out very clean and without a lingering smell. I highly recommend it

Awesome

Fabric stores. They sell the patterns too.
I find pure cotton clothes everywhere. I also started wearing wool.
@@CountryLivingExperience I started a couple of winters ago getting the Merino wool socks and I cannot believe how soft and comfortable they are.

I just went over and the orange oil is on sale for around $27

I use Dr. Bonner's full strength -no issues. Great video!!!
So informative! Thanks!
I 1000% agree with everyrhing you said. I already use almost all the same exact brands. Folks need to wake up and READ LABELS.
Thank you!

You could transfer the castile soap to a glass jar to prevent continued exposure to the BP-...

Ooohh, I'm getting that orange oil!
Zote bar soap is great for so much, it has tallow. Shred it and as boiling water to dissolve for washing, cleaning etc. Check it out

How do you mix it for laundry soap?
@@MyCabinLife I don't mix it. I just squirt the Dr Bonners in as its filling

@@SittingKittyColorado Thanks Sitting Kitty...you saved me from a bad hair day lol
Castile soap should not strip the oils off of your hair. It does not do that to mine.

What do you use to clean windows?
Thanks
Vinegar (diluted) for windows. Baking soda with castile soap for dishes.
I use Rustic Maka deodorant. They are a Michigan based company with very clean products.
Also check out Dr Squatch stuff it is all natural.
I make my own soap and use it for my hair too…. What’s weird is that my hair dry faster… it’s not for every hair type but works for me
👀🤔What number plastic is your Soap dispenser made of, check ALL of your plastics.
Can you use the orange oil mixture to clean wood floors?
Orange oil is great for wood floors.
@ I thought so but wasn’t 100% sure. Thank you
Works great on our floors
Hi with all the other links I don't know if I missed it but the other videos that you mentioned are they pinned down below? Or do I have to watch the video again?
Some pop up at the top right corner of the video while you are watching. Some are on the screen at the end of the video.
Why do you spray your garden with Castile soap with neem oil?
I’ve been looking for alternative deodorant for a while. They’ve all been unable to keep down by bo. I’m excited to try the one you suggest.
The bible says that one of God's benefits is that He heals all our diseases. Boy, we sure aren't taught that!
