Are you ready for a really bold statement? In my honest opinion, and one that I strongly believe is backed by all the data and all the science, your dryer sheets and fabric softeners are most likely the most toxic product in your entire home. Let that sink in for a moment. Not only are they full of toxins, but they also have multiple exposure pathways. They’re polluting the air in your home while also soaking your clothing in toxins. So, I’m arming you with all of the knowledge you need to swap these products for more holistic alternatives.

We’ve become really accustomed to having “soft” clothing with no static. But fabric softener and dryer sheets are relatively new additions to our laundry routines. And I promise, it’s possible to have clean, soft laundry without the use of these products.
