I have no intention to create a soap that will satisfy your hunger.

It is just a dream natural soap that will not harm a baby when it's

accidentally being eaten or swallowed during bathing. Aside from it,

if you can invent such soap, it will surely help ecologically and

prevent environmental pollutions.

 

SOAP BARK TREE

 

When I was in Indonesia about 30 – 40 years ago, I have seen several

sights of women washing clothes and children taking a bath along the

rivers. There I noticed that they were using certain fruit nut and

bark of a tree for washing, definitely NOT SOAP. A friend of mine

told me that they do not use synthetic soap but the nut and its bark

taken from soap tree. I did not pay attention about the soap tree

during that time.

 

Today, I realize that the soap tree must be one of the answers to

environmental protection from pollution.

 

The name of the soap tree is said to be Yukka or Sapindus mukorossi

or just Sapindus, Quillaia saponaria, or Gypsophila.

 

Since people have learned how to make soap, especially in this modern

time where synthetic soaps are being made, beautiful rivers and

wonderful oceans are no longer the same as before when our ancestors

enjoyed swimming and fishing. Look at the riverbed or seabed; you may

not find living things because of the presence of polluted sediments

called sludge. If you analyze this sludge, you will find soap

materials used by factories and housecleaning.

 

Soap industries are producing more and more dangerous soap that will

pollute the world. Of course, there are soaps and cleaning

technologies (machines) that will not pollute our environment, but it

costs a lot. Thus, their application is very limited.

 

A good idea is to plant more soap trees, which contain useful amounts

of cleaning substances. This may be one of the solution concerning

environmental problems.

 

OZONATED WATER

 

Another good idea is to use ozonated water for washing. You can

convert tap water to ozonated water simply by the process called

electrolysis.

 

You can use this ozonated water for cleaning of practically

everything in your house such as:

 

1. Laundry with your washing machine and it does not require soap.

2. Wipe your entire house with ozonated water, then all bacteria and

viruses including fungi will be eradicated.

3. Surgical and kitchen utensils will be sterilized without any

boiled water and chemicals.

4. Spray the ozonated water to plants in your garden and farm. The

plants will grow better and you can kill all insects without chemical

solutions.

5. Wipe your skin with ozonated water, then allergies and other kinds

of skin diseases can be eradicated.

6. Fish in ozonated water grow greater than ordinary water.

 

There are hundreds of advantages in using ozonated water. We just do

not have enough and conclusive records about human consumption of

ozonated water for health at moment. We need more studies, although

hundreds of websites are selling ozonated water for human consumption.

 

Is ozonated water a new invention? The answer is NO. Ozonated water

was used since the time of our ancestors. People today did not

realize that a certain kind of water fermented by our great grand

folks was ozonated. Do you believe that? Uneducated old folks did not

know about the word ozonated.

 

HOW TO MAKE OZONATED WATER

 

About a kilo of cooked rice (you can use leftovers) and 300 grams of

brown sugar mixed with 3 liters of water. Keep it for fermentation

for about 2 – 3 months at about 35°C. It smells bad in the beginning,

but sour and rotten smell will go away in two-month period. By and

by, fermentation process will be completed, and clear water will be

seen. This is ozonated water. You can use it for washing clothes and

other materials. You can drink it, too. It's like juice or wine

according to old folks. It is really a healthy ozonated water, isn't

it? It seems that even bread or cookies will do the same. I myself

never tried this, so I instructed my staffs and young research people

to try it.

 

Before WWII, according to our old folks, radish juice, rice swill

(the water left after washing rice), ash, egg white, and animal bile

were used in washing clothes and body.

 

FERMENTED URINE AS A BLEACHING AGENT

 

Well, go back to another story of substitute soap. Probably before

and after the time of Christ and even the time of WWII, human urine

was used especially at laundry shops. Our toilet was not flush toilet

like today. Mostly, barrel was used to keep urine. I myself used it

when I was a kid. Feces and urine were separated. Feces were brought

to farm, kept for fermentation, and used as fertilizer for plants.

 

Our neighbor laundry shop came to collect the urine barrel everyday

in exchange with a small box of match or some kind of gift each week.

The urine was kept for fermentation and used as a bleaching agent.

 

Fermented urine is poured to stone or fenced mud puddle and placed

clothes and pounded by feet.

 

After washing clothes, of course, rinse out the urine to the river.

The river won't be polluted as fermented urine will help fishes and

insects including plants in the river to grow healthier. Once the

river reaches the ocean, crabs, shells, fishes and other seaweeds

will then be healthier. That's how it was before the WWII.

 

Today, synthetic soaps, which flood the market, are polluting

everywhere killing living things of the world.

 

HOW TO MAKE NATURAL HOMEMADE SOAP

 

Information on how to make natural soap for kitchen, laundry,

cleaning of your body and face, are as follows:

 

100% successful soap-making with used oil from your kitchen.

 

Prepare the following:

 

1. Any used oil from your kitchen

2. Empty milk pack

3. 50 grams of sodium hydroxide, a.k.a. lye, (available at drugstores

or hardware stores)

4. Bamboo or glass stick

 

Instructions:

 

1. Wash the milk pack thoroughly and dry. Dissolve 50 grams of sodium

hydroxide (lye) in 100 ml of water. If at all possible, do this

outside or under an exhaust fan, or you can open the windows to

ventilate the room as the solution will produce heat and gas due to

chemical reaction.

2. Add the sodium hydroxide to the water, not vice versa. Pour the

sodium hydroxide slowly and in a steady stream, and stir constantly

with a glass stick.

3. Pour 370 ml of used oil gradually to the solution and stir slowly

and constantly for about 10 minutes. You will have to stir several

times for a half-day time in order to neutralize the solution.

4. When completed, leave the solution as is and undisturbed for about

one month.

5. If the soap had been solidified, then you can cut it to a

reasonable size of your liking.
