I made some laundry detergent yesterday. I am trying it out today.
Did you know that the enzymes in laundry detergent can be harmful? These enzymes act as hormone disruptors and can penetrate your skin to cause neurotoxic effects, decreased sperm count (not worried about that too much), and mimic estrogen. Some are also carcinogenic.
It was easy to make and is supposed to be low-sudsing so it won't eff up my front-loading machine (that I hate with a passion, btw). Anybody else make their own?
