Soap is a disinfectant that kills bad bacteria which can cause illness and even death.
The use of the laundry soap is needed to cut through the body oils left on the clothes when we sweat or wipe food on them. Ordinary water will not dissolve the oils and greases but only spread it to the rest of the other clothes.
Remember one thing as well.
The body has "good" bacteria on it that attacks "bad" bugs and critters that get on your skin. Therefore, wash or shower but don't get too aggressive on "getting clean" and you will be healthier than when you scrub the bacteria away.

It has to do with chemistry and polarity.
Water is polar and soap is nonpolar.
Soap forms bubbles and attracts the dirt inside the bubbles.
Because "oil and water don't mix" water will not wash away the dirt and so soap is needed.

I use soap to get the clothes clean and germ free.
Just using water will not remove dirt.

chilly water is high-quality in case you utilize a coloration secure bleach. additionally like the above poster mentioned, dreft works wonders. i exploit it for all of our laundry, no hypersensitive reactions, & it gets the garments air purifier than maximum! With my 3 3 hundred and sixty 5 days olds outfits, if there is show print or glitter or something like that I turn them interior out and don't placed them interior the dryer. If it relatively is undeniable tee shirts or pants I purely throw them in. once you're in touch approximately shrinking, attempt determining to purchase on the youngster's place. Their outfits are much less intense priced, easily cute, and don't decrease or fade. My daughters total wintry climate dresser is from there and not one element, no longer even the one hundred% cotton products, has gotten smaller. That makes laundry time lots extra straightforward in case you question me... no having to hold dry or seperate delicates from on a daily basis outfits. All of her products could nicely be thrown in a single load and each thing comes out applicable!

Soap takes out germs and dirt inside the fabric that you can't see. It also keeps your clothes from stinking eventually.

I suppose you just wash your body with water as well. How clean does that make you?
