Guest guest Posted January 14, 2000 Report Share Posted January 14, 2000 Roy, Where do you get these laundry discs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2000 Report Share Posted January 16, 2000 Just for anyone interested, 20-20 did a report on laundry discs and determined that they DO NOT get your wash clean and suggest that it is total hype. There was actual lab tests performed which indicated that laundry detergent was superior. Has anyone tried Dreft or Ivory Snow? It is a detergent that you can use for babies, maybe that will help. There is also Cheer Free which is free of dye and perfumes. Diane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 17, 2000 Report Share Posted January 17, 2000 Diane, Thanks for speaking up. I was hoping someone would mention the discs and balls are shown to be less than what they report to be. We with P and PA get sold enough " snake oil " .

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 Roy, I in no way intended to imply that you were selling snake oil. Sorry for the inference. I remember a couple years ago some people around my area selling expensive laundry balls that were later found to be a hoax by many researchers. I have no idea what kind of laundry disc you use. If they work for you, that's wonderful! I would caution people to check out a product before investing just as I am sure you would recommend to anyone else. The snake oil referrence was from my own experience with my PA. There are so many people I have run into who just have to tell me about this wonderful remedy that the neighbor of the brother of their sister in law (or some such long lineage) used and it cured him! Coming from people who have no idea what I am suffering from and lump all forms of arthritis together in their mind, it just gets darn annoying. With this list though, people are going through the same thing as I am and have a good knowledge of what this stuff is all about, what works well for them and what doesn't. And you are sooooo right about some things working great for some people and not for others. Isn't it amazing that we can react totally different to different treatments? And then sometimes do absolutely nothing and have a clearing? Crazy! I wonder if this type of thing complicates the research for new drugs in PA? Sounds like you will have a household that has to stay on their toes 24x7 with a paramedic and a soon to be OB? WOW!! Kudos to you both!
