Hi B.,
I am so sorry that your child is experiencing these problems, but unfortunately, he is not alone. We are undergoing an epidemic of asthma in this country- no one in my generation (baby boomers)had asthma. Now every 1 in 10 children has asthma or breathing difficulties. Why?? Many experts feel it is related to all of the chemicals in our homes and environment. Most household cleaners can trigger an asthma attack, and laundry products are a huge problem, as you are wearing chemicals 24/7 on your clothing and bedding. A chemist can explain the ingredients in commercial laundry detergents and fabric softeners to you, but I have done extensive reading and you don't want to use this stuff on you or your children. Go green and use only natural laundry and household products like those made by Shaklee. I converted 3 years ago and it makes huge difference. I wish that I had known this 30 years ago when my children were small. A Pulmonary specialist in Flint actually tells his asthma patients to go out and find a Shaklee rep. because their asthma will go away or improve dramatically. Please let me know if I can help you- people need to know the truth about what is in commercial products. I have a ton of info to share. Best Wishes, M., RDH
