Soap nuts

Soap nuts are the fruits of soap trees that grow in the cleanest corners of India, especially near the Himalayan mountains. They were named so because of the special properties of the skin, which is rich in natural foam formers - saponins.

Unlike many modern detergents, these nuts are absolutely hypoallergenic and harmless for people of all ages, but at the same time they perfectly clean almost any surface from contamination.

Qualities by which soap nuts are superior to chemical detergents

1. As already mentioned, these fruits are completely harmless and can be used for washing things, washing dishes and other things. Hindus have been using them for household needs for many hundreds of years, and during this time soap nuts have been carefully checked and rechecked by scientists and doctors from different countries. They all came to the same conclusion: soap nuts are completely safe.

2. This is the most suitable remedy for allergy sufferers and those whose skin is extremely sensitive. In addition, soap nuts can be used as a preventative against psoriasis, eczema and hair loss.

In many countries of Western Europe, soap nuts have long become a common dishwashing or laundry detergent, which is actively used by allergy sufferers. Nowadays the detergent market is overcrowded. We are offered a variety of miraculous powders, shampoos and gels for every taste and budget, but believe me, none of them will be safer than the natural cleaning agent that is soap nuts.

3. It is also one of the safest products you can use to wash baby clothes. Everyone knows about the increased sensitivity and vulnerability of the skin of children, whose body still cannot cope with various irritants from the outside.

Kids constantly get their clothes dirty, and mothers have to do laundry almost every day. Can you imagine how many harmful substances settle on the fabric of small T-shirts, pants and dresses every day and can harm their owners?

In contact with the skin every day, such fabric can cause irritation and even cause various diseases.

If you wash your baby’s clothes using soap nuts, then you don’t have to be afraid of chemicals, and therefore their harmful effects on the fragile child’s body. Soap nuts will help you remove any stains without causing irritation or an allergic reaction.

4. Are you afraid for your favorite silk or woolen clothes? Then don’t experiment with expensive shampoos, but try using soap nuts in your laundry. Gently cleaning them will allow things to retain their original appearance, but at the same time be washed thoroughly.

5. This same gentle effect on fabric makes soap nuts an effective means for washing colored items. You no longer need to be afraid that your clothes will lose their true color, fade and lose their brightness. Soap nuts without any harmful chemical additives will prevent colored items from fading.

Unlike powders, the particles of natural foaming agents that may remain on clothes will not harm you, but will make things even softer. In addition, clothes and bedding that have been washed with soap nuts are easier to iron.

6. Since soap nuts are a completely natural product, they are completely safe not only for people, but also for the environment. What remains after washing cannot pollute either water or soil. If they get on the mucous membranes or even in the stomach, soap nuts will not harm your body, as powder or shampoo could.

Ways to use soap nuts

1. Machine washable. Place the required amount of nut shells in a small canvas bag. To wash at 40 degrees in soft water, use six shells, at 60 degrees - four, at 90 degrees - three pieces.

The above numbers are based on a standard wash, which uses no more than 3 kg of items. When hand washing, the calculation remains the same. If you want the washing to be better, it is better to replace nuts with their extract.
