Whew Someone on my side!!! Now in my ninth decade with no dishwasher, no disposal no microwave no TV all these decades !.none!. and lots and lots of resistance from husbands with an ‘s’, children and grandchildren, friends, and neighbors, and lots of vinegar and baking soda… Now with enjoyment of the beloved washing machine and dryer and hot water and cold water and electricity, I really feel that you’re on my side. You’re helping. Thank you.
I got to the point one day that I did not want to use all the cleaners anymore. I had trouble breathing when I used it. I got things cleared out of the house, I researched and found relatively local USA family owned sources. Also Stephen you are apart of our household. Thank you.
I recently began buying Truly Free in my journey of conscious capitalism (love having that name to go with this season!) BEST cleaning products I've ever used. I have already switched multiple people over to their products. The results of the dishwasher leaves me speechless everytime I run a load...actually makes me like doing dishes 😅 Now I'm in tears hearing how they are making an impact in the trafficking world and many other missions. Way to go, God bless you and continue to good fight!!
Now check out buying your food from Azure Standard! We raise our own meats and garden as much as we can, but there are some thing's I just can't grow or produce enough of....and I absolutely love buying from Azure! They're doing things RIGHT.
Thank you!!!! I just got to watch this video. Placed my order!! I’m “that person” who is just waking up to detoxing my home. I really appreciated this.
I absolutely LOVE the Truly Free products! I have been using them for about 6 months and they are absolutely fantastic! Love the laundry soap and how clean everything feels and just started with the dishwashing soap. Even my husband noticed how sparkly clean the dishes are. Please try them you will be amazed at the difference! Thanks Carolyn for having Stephen on, I love his background.
Not only am i going to buy these products, i really appreciate you allowing the conversation to get into other areas and world markets. It really is all connected.
Where is that I live close to Coroe Texas, and they are constantly dumping stuff in the clouds to make it rain. 🤔 and therefore, it's in the air we breathe when it rains.
I can't even eat produce from a store that sells laundry products anymore! I ran out of potatoes and had some grab some at a local store and I couldn't eat them. They smelled just like Tide/Gain. YUCK.
Also, I tried their classic scent laundry soap and it made me sneeze so bad but when I emailed them, they got right back to me and asked if I wanted a refund or try the unscented. I tried they the unscented and they sent it right out to me, no shipping charge and did not ask me to package up the scented to send back. That was very kind of them!
Carolyn, can you ask him to make the website more user friendly? I don't want a 'package' and want to choose my own products. There is no easy add/delete functionality. I'd love to try the laundry soap, but I don't want all the other stuff. Thank you for this video!
Oh Carolyn!! As I listened to this - I am cleaning windows, and inhaling HIGHLY TOXIC store bought chemical cleaner!!! YIKES!! Very eye opening - thank you - some changes are coming to our home!!!!
I started using these products about a 2 years ago and have not looked back. I love the dishwasher powder, it is amazing! I think I've used almost every product and have not been disappointed yet. Thank you for Truly Free!
I'm 84 years old in September . I was raised using home made lye soap and vinegar rinse, and bakingsoda. . All uses of cleaning and bathing. As a teenager I was able to use commercial products. When I started serious cooking I decided not to use lotions on my skin because of knowing the effect of oil, lard, with heat does to raw meat. After my bout with formaldehyde ( which I explained in a previous video ) I can not be anywhere near anyone using a " perfumed" products.
wow this was a great program! I am really just getting into this for myself. I loved the end part the best. My heart is: we have a lot of hurting people, who when rescued will need safe places to go and jobs. As appreciative of the info and connection to safer products in my home, the end was the integrity behind it that God is blessing. Win! win! win! win! win! win!!!
Awesome information! Just placed my first order! Thank you for sharing this information. I have been wanting to make the change over and you provided the information when I felt overwhelmed with where to start looking!
I have been using up my cleaning products I do have natural laundry soap and it's great. Slowly getting rid of toxic items. Little here and a little there
Just placed my order, I’m excited for the laundry and dish detergents! For my daily cleaning, I use thieves and I’m super happy with that, but I also decided to try a couple other of their products. Their prices are pretty good, that was surprising.
My dogs whole body was inflamed from a detergent I used on the dog bed cover .. one i bought from a school fundraiser, i started just using some diluted castille soap.
Stephen can you tell me what coffee you do drink? Ive been wanting to switch to organic but overwhelmed with which to go with. Please share what you drink.
I know that your question is for Stephen. But I remember Carolyn mentioning in a previous pantry chat that her and Josh have found a very good organic coffee that they switched to. She said the name of it was called, purity coffee.
Yeah I only use delutted vinegar in water spray clean whole house! I marinate the vinegar in citrus peels can get orange smell or lemon or key lime pie smell naturally so great not sticky (: this great video learn more about laundry and dish side because I agree with you I can't make my own of those things effectively for my machines.
I decided to come onboard. I do not gave a dishwasher. I can remember years ago, my grandfather reacting towards laundry detergent, so they started using laundry detergent that was for washing baby clothes.
Carolyn, I have to laugh at myself! The sign on the wall behind your head looks like you are wearing a Dutch hat. Ir only took me a second to laugh at myself.
I really wanted to check out his products but was being required to not only give my email before I could check it out to see if I was interested but I had to agree to recieve text messages on my phone as well. I may have agreed to give my email after checking out the product but I'm not interested in having text messages from sales. 😢
I use Azure Standard's dishwasher detergent powder, laundry detergent powder, glass cleaner, and toilet bowl cleaner. Is Truly Free less toxic than Azure Clean? I'm not satisfied with Azure's surface cleaners - they burn my throat. I've been searching for a better, nontoxic stainless steel cleaner as well as floor cleaner and wood cleaner. I'll have to give Truly Free a try! I'm all about supporting independently owned businesses.
Do I think we can instantly fix all of this? Of course not, but when those who are supposed to be calling it out buy in instead and often for financial gain…where are we?
What about the plastic storage containers? Do they not leech toxins into the product? Just curious because I would think glass would be a better option if you're trying to be "truly free."
Rowe Casa Organics has cleaners I love & they’re almost all in glass bottles. I did just order Truly Free to support them- maybe they’ll switch to glass.
I bet it’s more pricey than other products, everything good for you is, people care but at a higher cost. I’m waiting for those who just care and so they not only make their products safe but more affordable to Guelph actually help people.
I have such allergies. Ive been having issues for so many years!! Coughing slugish, the constant foggness and feeling like Im being poisoned! How do you test for toxins???
Soap scum is created by the soap reacting with the minerals in the water (more problematic in hard water). I've had problems with soap scum in my pipes ever since I started using actual soap (and not detergents), and did lots of research on the best ways to clean it out. Just as soap is made with lye (sodium hydroxide), you can also use lye to clean the soap scum (most pipe cleaners use a diluted form of sodium hydroxide). You should be able to find it at any hardware store in the cleaning aisle. Most directions say to run some water down the pipe, then sprinkle 1 tablespoon of lye (it comes in a powder form) down the drain, then run 1 more cup of hot water down the drain, and wait. Rinse the pipe with warm water afterward, and repeat as necessary to fully clean the pipe. It took me 4-5 times to fully clean my pipes of all the soap scum. It should be safe to use on all modern pipes. As for soap scum on the shower walls, you could use lye, diluted in water in a spray bottle, a good scrubber, and elbow grease. Other than that, you could limit soap scum buildup by adding softener to your home's water.
So, the actual fabric at the stores are the same. So making clothes is definitely not any better. Would it be more healthy to thrift and then strip any fabrics coming into the home?! I’m just getting into laundry at the moment and stripping clean sheets washed with the “diy” laundry soap has me disappointed in the “new” washer.
I made liquid shampoo for awhile, but kept running out and it was an all day process to make liquid soaps at home. So...I looked up a shampoo bar recipe and found one my hair absolutely LOVES. No conditioner needed, either. It's from Bumblebee Apothecary, so you can look up her recipe. I scented mine with a bit of Sweet Orange and Lavender and used tallow I rendered myself. Of course, then you have to wait the 6 weeks for it to cure, but I make all our bar soaps myself, so I try to keep a schedule so we don't run out before the next batch is ready for use.
You don't really need to use a shampoo (it's a modern consumer gimmick). Natural bar soap works just fine for the whole body, including the hair. The key is to find one that you like, and works with your hair and natural oils. Avoid most soaps you'd find in the grocery store, as they contain all kinds of chemicals which will dry your skin and hair out too much. The soap I've found that I like is Honest Amish beard soap (they have lots of variants, but I just get the Original). It can be used on the whole body, 1 bar lasts 1-2 months, and costs about $8. I also use it for hand soap, and it's in my bug out bag, as it's really light, and you only need to add water. You could make your own soap if you want to. The recipes aren't complex. It's pretty much just lye (sodium hydroxide, which you can find in any hardware store), fats/oil, and essential oil (if you want it scented beyond the oils you use).
My family loves Rowe Casa Organics bar shampoo & bar conditioner. I’ve used same bars for a full year (wash my long hair 2 to 3x week)…. Works great on different hair types.
Something about this guy... I just don't believe his story, seems scripted just to grab the audience. Is it just me, or is anyone else picking up on it?
Whew
Someone on my side!!!

This was my experience too...
All that's really needed for cleaning is: vinegar, sometimes baking soda & coconut oil.
I use Vinegar and Baking Soda for much of my cleaning. It's what my grandmother did, and she had a spotless home.
Is that also for use after raw meats?

You have the best guests! Thank You
I can't walk down the laundry isle without getting sick from the chemicals.
I can't even eat produce from a store that sells laundry products anymore! I ran out of potatoes and had some grab some at a local store and I couldn't eat them. They smelled just like Tide/Gain. YUCK.
Same!
I love their dishwasher soap.
Also, I tried their classic scent laundry soap and it made me sneeze so bad but when I emailed them, they got right back to me and asked if I wanted a refund or try the unscented.

Thank you for this show! I was looking for products like these and this showed up in my feed! Happy to support.

Thanks for encouraging all the Crazy Aunts out here 😁
Crazy aunt here 🙌 😅 💗
Wow. I checked it out and inventory was nearly gone when I got back in to order. Let's go non toxic life.. whew hoo!
Natural flavor is the same as fragrance.
I started using these products about a 2 years ago and have not looked back. I love the dishwasher powder, it is amazing! I think I've used almost every product and have not been disappointed yet. Thank you for Truly Free!
Excellent show, and I was excited to find he is a Michigander, so even though I live in Grand Rapids, I can support a local company.
This is an amazing talk. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge with everyone else! It is greatly appreciated!!
Very good information thank you!!
I quit using cleaners many years ago. I now use vinegar with citrus. I have MCS multiple chemical sensitivity.

Always get stuff that is naturally scented. Never ones that say perfume/fragrance
@blueeyes3 I have tried that,, it doesn't always work. Even things that say non-alergenic .
@user-ys6pl4wo3c I either make my stuff, or we only buy organic.
wow this was a great program! I am really just getting into this for myself. I loved the end part the best.

Awesome information! Just placed my first order! Thank you for sharing this information. I have been wanting to make the change over and you provided the information when I felt overwhelmed with where to start looking!
Every winter, once a month, I turn the heat off and open windows and doors to "blow the stink out".
This is so important.
Thanks for having Stephen on and talking about this.
I have been using up my cleaning products I do have natural laundry soap and it's great. Slowly getting rid of toxic items. Little here and a little there
I use vinegar for lots of things and I use Thieves cleaner for so many things too. Thanks for sharing this information. I live in Michigan too. ❤
I have truly free products, however I still like to make vinegar, water and essential oil basic cleaning products.
OMG my niece even gave me a "Crazy Aunt, she's part feral" sweatshirt.😂😂😂
Not only is baking soda great to clean with, but it also detoxes you from heavy metals!!! I use a cup in my epsom bath every week.
Sunrise Soap Company-York Pa - ships shampoo bars, conditioner bars, face lotion, ect. Unscented & cost effective!
Carolyn (or Stephen) or other viewers, can you recommend non-toxic clothing company and non-mold coffee company?
Lifeboost is a really good mold and myotoxin free coffee!!
Thank you! I've been slowly switching out toxic for non. I'm ordering the dishwasher box!
Great, inspiring interview! Thank you! I will be buying the laundry detergent, for sure! ❤

How do you test for the toxins?? Ty ❤
She has a link in the video that they talked about the testing they did.
I'm going through a Wholistic practitioner in my area.
@@foreverhomesteading6629 okay thank you 😊

I have been looking for items in glass rather than plastic. It's crazy how much plastic we use and I don't get it.
@@Ang-csb Grove Collaborative uses glass, but I'm not sure how chemical free their products are.
I buy organic wheat but if you’re gluten free, the products in gluten free flour are not organic. Where do we look?

Get some good clean Indian clay. Do a heavy metal detox.
Good to do at least every 3 months
What is the coffee that your guest mentioned?
Dishwasher soap powder = 50 loads @ $24.95. That’s insanely expensive. Hard pass.

I have such allergies. Ive been having issues for so many years!! Coughing slugish, the constant foggness and feeling like Im being poisoned! How do you test for toxins???
Do they have a scent free laundry detergent. We use ALL Laundry detergent no dies or scent.
The FDA doesn't run testing. The company wanting approval runs testing and submits it to the FDA for approval.
Three words - Norwex!
Hey coral you made my day. Lol. I think i m the crazy ant.
Do some research about the carnivore diet and why eating plants and other carbs are so bad. Will blow your mind.
Hey Carolyn what do you use to clean soap scum in the shower?

Are these products made in the USA.
I wouldn’t be able to fathom why anyone would drop to their graves for anything off a shelf
So, the actual fabric at the stores are the same. So making clothes is definitely not any better.

Wait! Did you say NoMi?? Huge homesteader in NoMi to!
And great talk guys! Great advice, change one thing at a time. Yes sir. Gonna try your products out asap
Anyone know if Azure’s detergent is also safe?
No shampoo in the line. Are you using the hand soap as a shampoo? ? What about shampoo?

Supplements.
Fake food or food like products
Something about this guy... I just don't believe his story, seems scripted just to grab the audience. Is it just me, or is anyone else picking up on it?
Even if it is, I don’t see how the product could be any worse than the toxic waste we’re getting out of all our big box stores everywhere.
I don't use toxic cleaning products, except my laundry detergents(tide with downy) the only one I still have and use is bleach.
