IS THERE MOLD IN YOUR COFFEE? MY CLEAN PICKS

In honor of spring cleaning, I’m starting a three part cleaning series. Each of the next three episodes will be my bite-sized hot takes and we’re starting off strong by tackling toxic laundry detergent. Laundry detergent should be one of the items at the top of your list for detoxifying your home goods. Not only are we exposed to a laundry detergents toxins through our clothing, but we’re also breathing in polluted air as our washing machine runs and sleeping in toxic sheets.

Many laundry detergent companies that claim to be clean are just greenwashing their products. They’re investing more money in marketing themselves to look like the good guys than they are into actually fixing the problem. So tune in to learn exactly what products I recommend and what specific ingredients you should avoid while shopping.

I love laundry detergent swaps because, in the long run, you’ll actually be saving yourself money AND saving your health in the process. I know a lot of healthy swaps can feel like you have to constantly opt for the more expensive options.

But when you go toxin-free in your laundry, you are not paying for the water that they’re putting in these cleaners that they’re charging you for. So this toxic laundry detergent swap is a no-brainer, you just have to know which products are trying to deceive you. That’s where I come in! My Green Cleaning Guide, linked below, will help you avoid these green washers with ease.

In this Episode, I Cover:

  • New York states new toxin regulations and how it will effect laundry detergent companies

  • The carcinogen found in most mainstream laundry detergents (Tide, Gain, etc.)

  • The importance of going fragrance free

  • Which laundry detergent companies are greenwashing

  • Laundry products I absolutely love and endorse
