Free: Top 25 Toxins to Avoid
Get on the Toxin Free in 3 Waiting List
Episode Description:
You switched to a clean laundry detergent because you wanted a non-toxic option, but now your clothes smell funky, look dull, and feel rough, and you're ready to go back to Tide.
In this second episode of my three-part "Toxin Free Fails" series, I'm breaking down exactly why your clean laundry detergent isn't working and what you can do about it without going back to toxic products. The truth is, it's not the detergent's fault. It's your water hardness, your high-efficiency washing machine, and the fact that you need to understand which ingredients actually work in different water conditions!
I'm doing a complete ingredient breakdown of three different clean detergents:
- the ultra-clean Meliora powder
- my go-to Thieves liquid detergent
- the controversial Truly Free that works in the hardest water conditions.
You'll discover why plant-based surfactants get "gunked up" by minerals, why your high-efficiency washer isn't using enough water to get clothes clean, and the two specific ingredients that make some clean detergents work in hard water (even though some people call them "toxic").
This episode will save you from throwing in the towel on clean laundry products and give you the knowledge to choose the right detergent for your specific water situation. No more funky-smelling clothes or going back to products that actually harm your health.
In today's episode, we're chatting about:
• The water hardness factor
• High-efficiency washer problems
• Three detergent case studies
• The "toxic" ingredient controversy

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
