RE: cleansers and shampoos [s] / Vinegar in place of fabric softener

[Guest guest]

I agree, I agree, I agree! I am going to try white vinegar in place of fabric

softener. The only reason I use fabric softener is that I can't stand " static

cling " in the dryer, lol.

Thanks for the great feedback.

Am I understandin you right - can I safely use white vinegar in place of a

fabric softener on my clothes - it won't hurt/discolor them or anything?

I really want to know this - because if this is true - wow- it would be

great to stop buyin fabric softener!

Thanks for any feedback.

I have used white vinegar as a cleaning agent in laundry for years, never a

problem. And I take excellent care of my clothes, I have T-shirts that are

15 years old and still in excellent condition. (Hint: NEVER put them in a

dryer!)

 

As for fabric softening, where did you learn that you " need " to soften the

fabrics in the first place? Mine are always soft, and all I do is wash them

and hang them to dry. But then, that would be a bit old-fashioned!!! Of

course, I use far less electrical power, no chemicals, my clothes last for

years and years in great condition, etc.

 

May I suggest this: There is NOTHING from a chemical factory that we need

for any part of our personal hygiene or self-care. Run up hills and climb

trees, you'll never need a gym. Eat whole fresh ripe raw organic-or-better

fruits and greens, and you won't even walk through all those other aisles in

the grocery ever again. Use lemon, vinegar, etc. for cleaning, save yourself

thousands of dollars and lower the toxicity level of your entire

environment. Buy directly from farmers and from sources that use no

chemicals, live in service to the entire planet.

 

The first, best way most of us can " give " to ourselves, others, and the

planetary ecosystem is simply to stop doing destructive acts. Always ask

yourself, how is this activity accomplished in Nature? This is not radical

thinking, it is merely the way our species lived for eons, and the way all

species in Nature have lived forever.

 

Best to all,

Elchanan
