DIY Dishwasher Detergent, Non-Toxic, of Course!

This DIY Dishwasher Detergent is such a simple swap you will be wondering where it has been your whole life. We don't need to dive all the way down the rabbit hole to see the toxicity on this one, just this one study should be enough for us to want to make the easy change.

According to Taenk.dk, Every third dishwasher detergent contains unwanted chemicals. 13 of 41 dishwasher products contain the suspected endocrine disruptor benzotriazole. Benzotriazole is a corrosion inhibitor and it is included on the authorities’ list of endocrine disruptors.

In the test, we also found substances that can damage your organs or possibly be cancerous.

To make it you need about 3 minutes, a large jar, some washing soda, and some citrus essential oils. The citrus oils not only smell fabulous, they kill bacteria, viruses, and fungi, as well as help break down grease, and grime, to leave your dishes sparkling clean.
