Re: Laundry Detergent Poll
I use liquid because it integrates with water better than powdered so the washing is more complete.
As for residual soap yes that is a problem especially since soap has been linked to child-hood asthma. Too much soap in a child's clothing can increase the likelihood of asthma. With today's water-stingy washing machines and flow-restricting shower heads we wear and leave more soap on our bodies than ever before.
Plus with aging municipal galvanized water pipes leaching minerals into our tap water. That water becomes harder. Hard water tends to keep soap from rinsing off clothes and our bodies. Notice the water spots on your car after it's been parked in the sun after being drenched by a sprinkler?
The basis for Mr. Clean's Jet Wash car washer isn't so much in the soap you use with it but the PUR water filter cartridge that softens the tap water so it doesn't leave water spots.
Hard water, water saving washers, and flow-restricters allow more soap to stay on our clothes. Soap has been linked to child-hood asthma. Do the math...I wash my kid's clothes three times.
