9:49 am
about soing clothing in baking soda yet to try and get rid of some of that the synthetics formaldehyde that they could or the dyes things look a new yeah to get rid of that it's very irritating and last thing you want is irritated skin because that's just breaks the barrier and let's germsin exacy and and we are observant now of where rms are coming from pay more attention to that. >>tell us a little bit about how detergents work and how at impacts all of this e striving to be morclean hurts kind of like washing your hands to you know the detergt works grabbing on to the dirt and germs. >>it becomes one unit and then you have to rinse them out in order to get rid of the dirt and germs. i'm not doing a good riddance then you're going to end up with sophie so today as dirty or so as with washing your with your clothes, the rinse is as important as the washes ackley
9:50 am
so that's why really. >>like those high efficiency of the archers, the health news a is a lot of water i ones that would use lots of water to get out all that. >>not only for the washing but for the for the rents and thing that you also talk about is don't crowd your dryer don't try to or your don't try to throw everythg in there when i don't know if you remember from college >>i just caution money putting she and yeah and that it hurt it needs to circulate and it eds to get water through them. ye, so yore not getting your dis move in that dirt around in those terms arnd so you really have to going back going back to the college da. i alys use a think all the more so by put in the better because it's going to come ean or exactly in end up with closties that were because of the fact you're not getting all the detergent out often times that what's recommended on the box you n go with half that real
9:51 am
yeah, yeah so and you have to try kind of have to periment yeah but the go way to test that is too th2 the duo after you wash your clothes and do it again one 2 with just water and see if there are some some said lefter has it's not getting clean is so new to 2 things oneis that usng too much detergent who is at the rinse cycle is not really doing what is right and then you have 30 clubs, ok. on of the things th you talk about as well as to use tried anelements such as baking soda baking soda and vinegar yes, yeah, how does that help well the baking soda will help you put about a half a cup in your washed and that will help neutralize the p h. >>and then adds and then add the vinegar in yr wince because vinegar and in you have that the acid than half the alkaline bill cancel each other t the end up with really clean how much you have to cut half a cup in the rams in the race. so half a cup of
9:52 am
baking soda itheash half a cup of of vinegar in the ramseys are yeah we'll e into it now the type of water that that someone mighhave at their home or aparment also plays a pleant if you have really soft water you don't mean as much so high water will need a little bit more so and then also those minerals that are remainin like the calcium and casey m more quickly i heard thats yes, yeah, yeah, so you're going to have to experiment a little with your water. >>to see if you're putting in too ch soap or not enough there'sa lot to think about all this is not so easy and i think someone to watch the pretty simple what's the take away he your take away is treat her clothes like your so watch them often makes perfect sense and rinse them and thoroughly all right lee, thank you karen that. good
