    Essential oils cause my lungs to flare up and I have no asthma or lung problems! I stay away from them. Dryer balls work well.

    Some people on here are actually selling natural products but I’m not. Try the Melaleuca products. They’re fine and work well.

    I’ve done most everything “right” according to alt med community for the past decade and nevertheless at 39 got diagnosed with almost stage 3 breast cancer (still in treatment!). I still won’t use dryer sheets or fabric softener because the smell makes me nauseated, but in general I say do what you want because it doesn’t seem to make that much of a difference.

    What I don’t understand is why do they keep manufacturing all these cancer causing items, e.g. canned tomatoes with the white lining. So, why do we have the Food and Drug administration. Aren’t they supposed to stop the production of all these products? We should be able to go to the grocery store and not have to worry about what we put in our carts. It should all be safe. The FDA should do their job.

    When my dad was diagnosed with COPD, we were told to remove all products like these – dryer sheets, candles, any type of room spray – including even furniture polish that is heavily scented, scented laundry detergent and soaps – absolutely no use of our fireplaces – there were many other no no’s given to us – all very bad for the lungs and air quality of our homes.

    I agree. If we listen to the media everything causes cancer. I stopped using them because of fire danger. Wadded up foil balls work just as well for softening and last a long time.

    Norina Green , because they truly don’t care. They are just as corrupt as the AMA, CDC, Big Pharma, Monsanto, certain politicians, etc. all with big conflict of interest and huge amounts of money being made at the end of the day. Don’t trust any of them.

    if you want to destroy your washer and dryer use fabric softener…….since it is made out of wax, it will clog everything!

    Dryer sheets leave a film on the lint screens. Clogs them up. Not good for air circulation. Wash those screens !
