Bleach and other chemical-based stain removers are harmful to us, our family, and our environment. If not washed properly, they remain in our clothes, soak into our skin and we breathe in these chemicals.
This enzyme concentrate is an all natural, non-toxic stain remover. It is also pH neutral, 100 % biodegradable, nonflammable and non-caustic.
After dilution, an 8 oz concentrate can make 1 GALLON (16 oz can make 2 gallons) of regular strength enzymes. Just like the enzymes in your stomach acid needed to digest food, this laundry enzyme breaks down grease, stain and dirt. Some of the enzymes include lipase (breaks down fats) and amylase (breaks down carbohydrate).
We emphasize on chemical-free homes as we may not realize the harmful extent of chemicals cleaners we typically use at home. Over the many years of cleaning and inhaling these fumes, increased risks of a variety of health complications can occur.
The attached links and document details the long term respiratory effects to lung health as a result of continuous exposure to toxic chemical cleaners:
1. Did you know that according to respiratory experts, using cleaning chemicals to clean your house just once per week is as bad for your health as smoking a pack a day of cigarettes?
2. The below study suggests that long term respiratory health is impaired as far in the future as 10-20 years after cleaning with chemicals. Cleaning with chemicals created accelerated lung function decline in women following occupational cleaning and cleaning at home. The health impact of cleaning with chemicals was comparable to smoking a pack of cigarettes a day for 10 to 20 years!
