I have severe autoimmune issues. Because of a life threatening disease, I must take steroids daily. This medication suppresses my immune system, so I used to constantly get sick in the Fall. My husband is a teacher, so he brings home viruses, even though he is not sick because his system fights them off. I have seen a huge difference since I started using Oxiclean. I also do a lot of cleaning with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide, so I am in shock that they are basically the same thing. I am ordering this product today! It is much cheaper, and since we make most of our own cleaning products, this will not be a problem to add to our cleaning regimen. YOU should have a million subs and your own TV show! Thank you so much for your videos!! PS I have also been taking some incredible supplements that have boosted my immune system as well. Feeling so much better these days! Although I must avoid crowds during Flu season.

Patti, I'm so happy you've been able to find so much to boost your health and improve the quality of your life!! As I understand, the SPC is often used as a shelf stable form of the hydrogen peroxide! It's nice to be able to mix up a "fresh batch" when you need it. I really hope this helps you, Patti! I wish you and yours good health, happiness and all things awesome. Blessings! 💕💪

If I were you, I would add drinking & spraying homemade colloidal silver & eating the food grade diatomaceous earth. I have autoimmune issues & I already do that. You can start by making colloidal silver with three 9 volt batteries & the silver rods which are not expensive to buy. Then buy a good Brewer to make collateral silver once you recognize its worth.

"Woww!" I say this at least once throughout your video My mind is constantly blown by your videos. Great job!

Great video! I've used sodium percarbonate/ Oxiclean for years, but still managed to pick up new tips from your video. My local beer brewing store in Northern California sells percarbonate for 5 lbs for $14. I used to buy Oxiclean brand from Costco when it went on sale for under $20 for 11.6 lbs. Unfortunately, Oxiclean also contains alcohol ethoxylates, which are effective cleaning agents, but can be contaminated with carcinogens. (Examples of ethoxylated products include alcohol ethoxylates, PPG, PEG, polysorbate and ingredients that end in -eth such as laureth, steareth, ceteareth, most famously sodium laureth sulfate.) Because of skin irritation I've switch to using straight hydrogen peroxide 3% in the laundry instead of percarbonate, and save the percarbonate for serious stains.

Great editing and good info. You are rocking your channel!

I just bought a bag of SPC on your recommendation; thank you. You said the spray solution will only last for six hours. I've been using Oxyclean spray on laundry stains on clothes that I don't wash until a few days later, and it works fine. What's the ingredient in Oxyclean that makes the spray last longer than six hours? Is there a hack to make the SPC spray keep better that six hours? Thanks

Shoes too wow

what about stain removal and laundry? how much do i use for laundry? do i pre soak? if so how long and in what volune of water?

Is this safe to clean inside front load washers? Any suggestions for amounts? Thanks.

I hope this helps!

I just watched this video again. Thanks for making it!

Question: which is more cost effective? Sodium Percarbonate or Oxi Clean? I will definitely try this. When we had carpet, I used to use washing soda in place of carpet cleaner. It had less suds and a pleasant smell. I never knew anyone else that tried this. Happy cleaning! Oh, and cooking! I’m going to try your pasta soak today.

Hi Cathy! For cleaning a washing machine, I'd really use the DT stuff. I've heard of some using oxyclean to clean a washing machine. They fill with hot water and just let it soak for hours, then run the water through. It only works on top loaders as I understand. SPC I like more for food stuffs because it's pure. DT has the sodium percarbonate and others ingredients/fillters, while the one I listed on Amazon is food grade. I hope this helps!

How much is spc vs just using a bottle of hydrogen peroxide with a sprayer attached? Lemon juice removes sticky glue. Also Vaseline.

hi cutie & wiki wendi. I just bought 7.5lbs of Oxyclean by Arm&Hammer. I was looking for that main ingredient and here you have it ,sodium precarbonate. thank you so much. yes, i did try Oxyclean Versatile and it brightened my white hat ,that i really thought had not chance of looking new again. im happy with Oxyclean but I want to use SPC. bye wiki wendi.

I have not tried it in the oven actually! If I do, I'll come back and let you know. This has no fragrance! It's marked as 99% pure sodium percarbonate. I'm not sure exactly what the rest of the 1% is, but I think it's the coating to keep the product from clumping. I hope this helps!

Moldy grout too

I can’t order the sodium, i click the link you gave, but none can delivery the goods

Hi Susan, haha no, I actually did poorly in chemistry. 😅. For clothes it depends on how bad it is. For very tough stains I'll just soak the pieces overnight in a bucket of warm water. But make sure to dissolve it a smaller cup with in warm/hot water first and then mix well to the bucket or washer. If it's not dissolved, the granules can weaken fabrics and make little holes. If it's a bunch of my son's sports gear then I'll use the same technique but use the washing machine to soak for a few hours before letting it wash. I may do a laundry video in the future! 😅
