I don't know if it's me going 100% compliant GTD and now SWAMI the last few weeks, or the Skin Protocol that I've been on the last couple of weeks, but I've have seen problem areas of my skin doing some might strange, but awesome, things. My hands, due to doing dishes constantly with Ajax orange dish soap, were pealing away and looked terrible. For years, I had these nervous bites on my fingers, yes I would chew on my fingers, and that is 100% healed. For years, I had callouses on my two big toes on my feet, and these are just pealing away and revealing beautiful new skin underneath. I am completely flabbergasted and amazed at what is happening to my body at the moment. I would post pictures of my feet, but I don't want to gross anyone out. I have been also soaking my feet in hot water with Epsom salts to help the skin along as well. Another big hug for Dr. D.  |

I'd bet the farm being 100% compliant is most likely the reasoning.
Why on earth are you using toxic Ajax dish soap anyway? |

What do you use?
I use Citra-Solv. I've been using toxin, carcinogen and other harmful ingredients free cleansers off all sorts for over 10 years now. |

I like Bon Ami also Ruthie. It requires a little more elbow grease than the other powder cleansers but the peace of mind you receive from the lack of those harsh, harmful ingredients is well worth the extra effort. |

Ruthie, I use Seventh generation and love it! I've used Bon Ami my whole married life, probably because my Mom and Grandmother did, too!  |

Because my wife started buying it about 2 years ago and I liked the smell. But, keep in mind, guys, my wife's back has been hurting (probably due to weight gain) and she cannot do dishes anymore. (And for the record, she's 50, I'm 47.) So, I have been doing them for the past couple of months, on weekends several loads in a day. So, after a month of using that toxic garbage, my hands showed the ill effects. I showed a coworker and she immediately attributed it to dish soap. So, now I used gloves, and better dish soaps.  |

I would also agree with this. Gee, MHR, you are one smart cookie.  |

I seem to be having a similar foot experience on my left foot which has always had more calluses than the right and cracked heel too, one night I woke up and on the sole the top layers of skin were peeling off.......  SWAMI since late April GTD for a month or so before that....TOTALLY COMPLIANT..... |

i use borax or baking soda and a homemade knitted cotton cloth for scrubbing. The large salt crystels work as well. Somehow that yarn does a good job. I do use dawn which might not be so good but is what the Fire service uses in hasmat incidence. The borax i use for the bathtub and sinks the baking soda for pans. I will use bleach if I need a disinfectant, but must be Clorox as it seems to be the only one that won't burn my hands and only by the drops. (which is all that is needed) Then that will have to air dry, allowing it to evaporate. I also use white vinegar alot Hydrogen peroxide works great for drains. |

I have been known to use Bi-carb soda to wash everything, including laundry and dishwawhing, dsometimes combine with vinegar or other goodies (like a panty hose).... But lately I have been splashing it a bit buying ECHO Store brand products, all plant based, bio-degradable, no harmful ingredients for my soil and water .... |

OR, you can just use rubber gloves when you wash dishes and clean with detergents...like I do.  Then you can use the Genoma on your face instead. |
