    Tommy, I’m a young 85 yr old . Just love the way taking the complex and simplifying. I’m going to look at all your videos to learn. Never to old to learn . You are a great young instructor. Loved your comment of the old lady and the doctor , telling her to clean up her act for health. She answered all those who told me that are dead. Much appreciated and thankful Frank

    I couldn’t tell you that I’m a 100% GREEN cleaner.
    I love using the homemade mixers (Heloise Cleaner) with Dawn dishwashing liquid, lemons, water, vinegar, essential oils, etc. for every day cleaning. But I love using bleach to white or disinfect, Arm and Hammer laundry soap, OxiClean, Scrubbing bubbles to clean the shower and old linoleum floors, Comet for the toilet, and Windex for windows (I love the smell of it). 🤷‍♀️
    Yes, we want to be as safe as we can be when exposing ourselves to harsh chemicals, but bacteria and other germs are harmful too. So I want to know I’m kicking germ butts when I go to cleaning my home.

    I use , casteel soap, rubbing alcohol, peroxide, baking soda, vinegar, and essential oils, and powdered citric acid for canning ( secret weapon). I can clean anything with these!

    Love your presentations! At this stage of my life I am not like I was in my younger years. I am not as up tight as I once was about nuclear cleaning my house. I am cleaner, but now that we have a dog and two cats, I am constantly busy it seems. We raised two kids and are still active with our two grandsons overnights, sports, and two grand dogs, and three grand cats at our kids house that we watch over when they go on vacation. Too much info, I know, but you present simple, effective ways and products to clean and not break the bank!! I love old school….thanks.. PS. Wash towels in washing soda and white vinegar, do not use fabric softener, your towels lose their efficiency to dry wet skin. Totally true!!

    I am not really a green cleaner. However, I do try to shy away from products that will eat the skin off my hands if I touch it. So, somewhere in between.

    As a cancer survivor I try to go as green as I can. But your point that occasionally chemical power is needed is my experience. Please let us know if there is a microfiber cloth that maintains clean with just water. I've heard that claim. Looking forward to the next episode.

      Hello Victoria congrats on beating cancer!! I actually have a microfiber series up in coming where I am gonna really break microfiber down and explain it. They are the greatest cloth on earth but the "why" is what people really need to know and understand.

    I wish we had smart regulations without having over regulations!!! I saw a video about how using bamboo cups was green. It turns out it puts out toxic chemicals with hot liquid. It’s hard to know what the truth is!! Thank you for doing this video!!

    Linaloon,limene, fragrance, and perfume all mimic a phenome that mites used to communicate and mate which mites = allergens and some that say fragrance have (allergen) right in the ingredients. So I go fragrance free hard to find at any local stores but we'll worth the adventure!

    Steam or boiling water with a little soap will shift grease. I also let cleaners sit on surfaces longer, let the product work so you don’t have to! Ammonia is natural, but harsh. However, it will shift most crud.

    As a cleaning enthusiast and vacuum cleaner collector, I have discovered that most green cleaners cannot keep up performance wise with standard chemical cleaners.
    A really good example of this is Melaleuca, and e-cloth products.
    Cloths do not use any chemicals whatsoever. It is just a cloth that you use to clean your home with. It does nothing for actual cleaning tasks.
    Melaleuca in my opinion is just scented water. Does nothing for grease, streaks, good soils, water spots, etc.

    A "gluten free" label on foods that dont contain gluten, often means its processed in a dedicated gluten free factory. Cross contamination from equipment, and even gluten dust, can cause reactions in some people.

    I'm so happy to hear u say that some people are just meant to live longer! I have always maintained that we are sent here (earth) with a predestined timeline, and if we don't abuse our bodies excessively that's what we get. I also know lady who ate very healthily, didn't smoke or drink and has had 3 cancers in 3 years! With cleaning, as long as u don't breathe in (or clean with bare hands ) excessive amounts of strong chemicals u should be fine, unless u are meant to die in that manner.

    I understand what you say and that is why I believe in destiny. I believe we all have a purpose here, just that we don't know it, that is why I always try to do my best on basically everything that comes across me as if it is possible since sometimes I can be out focued by many unexpected stuffs or things. I also read news saying someone that ate bacon every morning in their breakfast and lived to 90 but also news that people eat extreme careful e.g. fully chewed ( as mentioned in a Japanese program investigating why some people can be alive like 90~120 years). That news makes me believe that it does not quite matter how you live your life, by that I mean how is your lifestyle. I believe how you think, believe and do matters more as they manifest in a much bigger way in your life e.g. being less stubborn, forcing others to follow your idea something like this ( could be done unconsciously or by the little amount or high amount ). truly understanding what freedom and justice and love mean matters a lot. Btw, I believe that God exists but not entirely like what those religions are telling us to be. I believe I have to find my way out of this.
    Also, thank you for sharing. this video helps a lot as someone more professional than me in terms of cleaning talking about green cleaning can really convince me. I always have thoughts that green cleaning product works less effectively but I don't have proof. now, I think I have found the proof. I will keep seeking cleaning products that clean good with the less harmful chemical to the earth, but not going straight to green as we all know, using 2 bottles of cleaning agent vs just half a bottle of cleaning agent, even if it could be harmful to the environment, it is still more cost-effective and produces less carbon footprint. thus, I don't think going green means going in that direction regardless of the outcome and the processes that are needed to get to the outcome. we need to strive for a balance between the two.

      Hello Mr Peter nice to meet you! I normally dont get these kind of comments lol.
      I love dialoguing with people about God. I prefer to do it in person but since I seriously doubt we live in the same town, the comments section will do🙂
      Essentially the problem we face as humans is we all die. Death is an enemy. The reason we die
      is because all of us have sinned against a Holy God.
      Ask yourself, have you ever lied, stolen, hated someone, lusted after women who are not your wife? If you answered yes (which everyone would have to answer yes) than on judgment day you would be found guilty and cast into eternal Hell. This is a fearful thing!!
      But the Bible says that God is rich in mercy and made a way you can be forgiven of your sin. John(3:16) Jesus suffered and died for the sin of the world.
      You and I broke Gods Law Jesus paid the fine. This means God can legally extend mercy to you, dismiss your case in the courts of Eternal Justice and let you have eternal life as a free gift because of the death and resurrection of the Savior Jesus Christ!!
      All you must do in response is to repent of all your sin and trust in Jesus with all you heart and God will completely change you from the inside out. He gives you a new heart with new desires where you begin to love that which is right and hate that which is sinful!! It’s a literal miracle that happens. 🙂
      Repentance is confessing you sin to God one on one in your bedroom, car or wherever and it forsaking it. It’s not saying I’m a Christian it I lie, steal, have premarital sex, etc.
      That is a hypocrite and deceiving yourself. So if you want to experience a true miracle and go to Heaven when you die you must truly repent of your sin and put all your faith and trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and God will save you and adopt you into His family as His son. This is the greatest news anyone could ever hear!!🙂

      If you are wanting to avoid toxic chemicals I would suggest looking each product up at the EWG website: www.ewg.org/guides/cleaners and see what the rating is. I think Dawn dish soap is a C.

    regarding the last part of you video- i was literally telling my friend that the other day- she's super anal about skincare and products for her health etc but ultimately it will boil down to her genes. yes some lifestyle changes could help a little but overall it wont make much difference if her genetic makeup is going to determine how she ages anyway...
