Bleach is bleach, right? Wrong!
     
 

By Lori Kunkel of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

Dear Health Enthusiasts,
This important information was forwarded to me a few weeks ago. Please feel free to forward this information to anyone that you feel could use it. Great info to think about......
I remember having seen this article, and finally tracked it down; it's been bugging me for a while to use Clorox to "clean" our water crock.... Loree Taylor Jordan


BLEACH
Bleach is bleach, right? Wrong! I've been strictly on the Weston A. Price diet for over two years and for ten years searching intensely to stop the decline in my health. This search leads me to lots of places and the most recent "Aha!" I'd like to share from Dr. Hulda Clark's most recent book, The Prevention of All Cancers. Dr. Clark has noticed in all her cancer patients a combination of industrial toxins that are also in laundry bleach (Clorox). And that Clorox is being used as a sterilizer and in water conditioner systems, thus it is in our food and water supplies. The toxins are consistently PCB, benzene, azo dyes, heavy metals, asbestos, motor oil and wheel-bearing grease. She writes that a lot of people don't realize that there is laundry bleach and food grade bleach, certified by NSF, a non-profit product safety organization.

We all know bleach/chlorine is a strong and important chemical when handled properly, but using its impure form on clothing is very different from ingesting it. So first I wanted to know about the type of bleach used to condition the water I drink with a call to the building's maintenance man, and to my horror, he proudly said he uses Clorox but makes sure it's the unscented type. Dr. Clark says you have about a 50/50 chance of living in an area that uses laundry bleach or food grade bleach. For example, my parents checked their area's water and NSF bleach is used at their pump house.

Then I started calling the local grass-based farms to find out what bleach they're using to sterilize the milking equipment, watering troughs, farm kitchen, milk house and their butcher shops. All this wonderful raw organic grass-based dairy food is (you guessed!) cleaned with laundry bleach. The department of sanitation tells them to use Clorox, so the department of sanitation must not know the difference either. OK then, how hard is it to get NSF-certified bleach? Dr. Clark's book says it can be bought at swimming pool supply stores. I called and yes, they sell NSF-certified bleach, it comes in special 5-gallon containers (returnable with an $8 deposit) and costs $11.00. When I went to the store to pick it up, I asked why would a pool/spa supply store use food grade bleach? The manager said because it's a pure chlorine, Clorox has solvents in it that cause foaming. Then I asked who besides pool people buy NSF bleach. He said a local vet and some restaurants. I thought to myself how smart those people are to use NSF bleach. Now I will join the smart ones and only use NSF-certified bleach, even for my laundry. I just can't afford to pollute myself or the earth anymore than it already is. Yes, chlorine is still a toxic chemical of its own and I take precautions to avoid it with water filters on the shower and at the kitchen sink. I hope this "aha!" helps you and the seventh generation to find more and more solutions for rebuilding our health. Please join me in an effort to educate all and in making NSF-certified bleach more available to everyone.

A cleaning alternative for sterilizing crocks, dishes, pots & pans would be Nature's Sunshine Concentrated Cleanser (Stock #1551-6) and a few drops of Nutri-Biotic grapefruit seed extract (found at health food stores). You can access all NSP products by going to www.mynsp.com/Loreetaylorjordan
