Soap or Bleach to Kill Germs?

Soap or bleach to kill germs? That question seems to be popping up quite a bit. As a cruelty free designer, focusing on healthy & ethical design, it’s been difficult for me to use products like Clorox that contain bleach during this period. So, I decided to learn if green and chemical free products could do the same job that we all believe these deadly poisons we are spraying ourselves and homes with could accomplish. The answer is a big YES!!

“Bleach is like using a bludgeon to swat a fly,” says one expert.

According to what I’ve learned, soaking and spraying our bodies and environments in bleach products is not necessary. These chemicals, if inhaled in large amounts can create respiratory problems.

This Thursday, March 26th at 11AM EST, I will be hosting a FREE live Facebook Group Chat titled “Soap Is Better Than Bleach.” I will cover;

Why bleach is not the only alternative to getting rid of germs
The long term effects of soaking ourselves with poisonous chemicals
Why non toxic soaps work just as well as chemicals for killing germs
Which chemical free products are recommended by the experts.

If you haven’t joined the Facebook group, please do. This is the first of a series of short chats about important topics related to our home environment during this critical time. The topics will focus on achieving optimal health, mentally and physically via our design decisions and products we are using for our spaces.

Please, if you could share this blog post with as many of your friends as you can, you’re helping yourself, your family and the population. This and future topics I will be presenting are important and will provide immediate actions that we can take to fight this virus and protect our species. All of the chats will be FREE during this time.

I look forward to meeting you. Please stay safe and thoughtful.
