Sodium Ascorbate to Absorb Chlorine

by | Jan 18, 2020 | Q & A | 1 comment

Question from Fran

I have chemical sensitivities and chlorine is one of my triggers. I just ordered filters (from Igor) for my kitchen sink, bathroom sink, and shower. Because Pure Effect does not have a whole house system anymore, I am also wondering about my laundry. What is your opinion of putting several teaspoons of sodium ascorbate into my washing machine with my detergent?

 

Lisa’s Answer

Sodium Ascorbate will neutralize chlorine.  I am not a chemist so I don’t know for sure, but it is a neutral PH so I don’t think it will have a negative impact on your washer.  Readers, any additional thoughts?
