Natural 2X Concentrated Laundry Detergent To Clean All Your Clothes
By James J Dixon
In an op-ed piece for the Huffington Post, Seventh
Generation co-founder Jeffrey Hollender says he’s all
for having one universal certifying standard for natural,
organic and green products.
"A single certifying seal that consumers could
depend on would bring much-needed clarity to the marketplace,"
he argues, adding, "It’s like the Wild West out
there, and dozens of organizations are competing to
be sheriff. According to some counts, there are more
than 200 different green product certifying programs
in the U.S."
The Leading Edge Of Environmentally Responsible Products
Jeffrey Hollender is pretty confident that his Natural
2X Concentrated Laundry Detergent and other household
products will pass the test with any certifying agency
since they’ve been on the leading edge of creating safe
and environmentally responsible products for the marketplace
for nearly 20 years; before it was even fashionable.
Over at Amazon, there are 41 reviews of Seventh Generation’s
Natural 2X Concentrated Laundry Detergent, with half
of the reviewers awarded the product 5/5 stars. "It
gets stains out so well that I now use it to pre-treat
stains," writes one reviewer, who says she mixes
half detergent and half water into a squirt bottle to
spray on ten minutes before she runs the wash.
Without Discolouration Of The Fabric
Some consumers even use this detergent on baby diapers,
carpet stains and upholstery spills too, with great
success and no discoloration of the fabric. Another
reviewer enthusiastically applauds the reliability of
this product, saying: "Not one color is fading,
there are no weird spots showing up and my whites are
still white!"
The cost-effectiveness of the 2-X formula also wins
many consumers over as well. "Since it’s twice
as concentrated, it helps stretch the dollar,"
one reviewer remarks. A number of consumers indicate
that the light perfume smell is excellent for those
with allergies.
Includes A Known Toxin
In the world of consumer products, you can’t please
everyone and Seventh Generation’s Natural 2X Concentrated
Laundry Detergent is no exception. There are 11 unfavorable
reviews of the product on Amazon (out of 41 total),
with some consumers shocked to see sodium laurel sulfate
in the ingredients list, which is a known toxin.
One woman with eczema said her dermatologist told her
to never use any product containing this ingredient.
Another reviewer prefers Arm & Hammer and Citra
Suds for stain removal and scent.
A few people report getting a "tie-dyed"
look with colored loads washed with the detergent. One
reviewer comments, "It is easy to tell that sweaty
clothes still smell... our dish towels look like they
have never been washed... and dirt stays on the cuffs
of trousers."
Found In Major Supermarkets And Amazon
Seventh Generation Natural 2X Concentrated Laundry
Detergent can be found at all major supermarkets, Target
locations and online at Amazon, www.drugstore.com
or www.seventhgeneration.com.
While it’s roughly 50 cents more than other leading
brands, many consumers say they get more uses out of
their concentrated formula, so it’s worthwhile. Part
of consumer resistance to "going green" is
the belief that these products do not work as well as
chemical-laden products they know and trust.
Also, the studies have not come back confirming the
danger of long-term exposure to cleaning products. Yet,
there is still an underlying desire to support ethical
companies and do our part, as stewards of the earth,
to make wise environmental decisions.

Little Known Green Cleaning Products Facts.....
If you want a shocking revelation, go to your cleaning
pantry and take out a bottle of cleaning solution. Now
take the time to read all of the ingredients. It is
probably a long, laundry list of chemicals that many
of you have probably never heard of or do not know what
the purpose is.
There is a way around it though. Green cleaning products
are organic and are actually good for the health of
your family, home and environment. Most containers are
able to be refilled and cost about the same as those
with harsh chemicals.
