Keep your whites whiter and your kids’ skin clearer
Love this. Simple, inexpensive, and effective.
Chronic, severe eczema can mar a childhood. The skin disorder starts with red, itchy, inflamed skin that often becomes crusty and raw from scratching. The eczema disturbs kids’ sleep, alters their appearance and affects their concentration in school. The itching is so bad kids may break the skin from scratching and get chronic skin infections that are difficult to treat, especially from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
Researchers from the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine have discovered powerful relief in the form of diluted beach baths. It’s a cheap, simple and safe treatment that drastically improves the rash as well as reduces flare-ups of eczema, which affects 17 percent of school-age children.

For real? I thought it was dangerous for bleach to touch the skin. This news also makes my laundry-washing a little easier.
It is dangerous for undiluted bleach to touch the skin, but in this case it’s a diluted bleach bath.

Except, perhaps, for quitting smoking…
