The baby's health has always been an objectincreased attention of all parents without exception. And, as is known, the health of a child depends on many components, including the impact of environmental factors. Including household chemicals - it is not for nothing that children's washing powder causes a variety of reviews, but always stormy. Everyone knows that the main active components of absolutely any washing powders are surfactants, the so-called surface-active substances. These substances are quite dangerous and their effect on living cells is very aggressive. So, when these chemicals enter a living organism, there is a violation of biochemical processes in the living cells of the body, which leads to their destruction. A number of scientists studying this issue have conducted certain studies that have shown that the effect of surfactants has a negative effect on oxidation-reduction reactions in the body. They also destroy most vital enzymes, and disrupt such types of metabolic processes as carbohydrate, protein and fat. The most dangerous powders contain anionic surfactants. Surfactants, having entered the child's body, can cause the following complications:

• Significant disturbances in the normal functioning of the immune system.
• Development of various allergic reactions - both skin rashes, and complications from the lungs.
• Significant damage to organs such as the liver, kidneys, as well as the brain.

This is why in most European countries it has long been– strict restrictions on the use of such types of powders have long been introduced. For ten years now, powders that do not contain phosphate additives have been allowed for sale in Europe. Phosphate additives can penetrate into the child's body even without damage to the skin. Penetrating inside, phosphates lead to a sharp degreasing of the baby's skin, which significantly reduces the barrier function of the skin, as well as active destruction of cell membranes. Having penetrated the body, phosphates can lead to a significant disruption of the properties of the blood and, as a result, a change in its normal formula. The child's immunity is also significantly reduced. This is why parents need to choose a baby washing powder without phosphates. Many parents who use automatic washing machines do not pay any attention to the composition of baby powder, believing that machine rinsing in hot water will completely remove the remains of the powder from the baby's clothes. However, in fact, this is not so. The more complex the fabric structure, the greater the number of molecules of surfactants remain in the fabric fibers even after thorough and prolonged rinsing. The largest amount of powder remains in the following types of fabric:

• Woolen fabrics.
• Half-woolen fabrics.
• Cotton fabrics.

Molecules of surface-active substances remain on the fabric fibers for about five days. This feature of powders leads to the body being in a state of chronic intoxication.

Powder Packaging

When choosing and buying baby powderBe sure to pay attention to the packaging of the powder. If the powder is of high quality and not counterfeit, all its components will be indicated on the packaging. Be sure to pay attention to the presence or absence of surfactants in the powder - refuse to choose powders containing surface-active substances. In the same case, if there is no information about the composition of the powder on the packaging of the powder you have chosen, such a powder is not only harmful to the health of your baby, but simply frankly dangerous. Anything can be inside such a box with an unknown composition. And how this powder will affect the health of your child is almost impossible to predict - from simple atopic dermatitis to the occurrence of eczema and ulcers on the surface of the skin. However, unfortunately, not all manufacturers of washing powders are conscientious and often do not place the full composition of the powder on the packaging. There is one indirect, but quite reliable sign of whether the powder contains surfactants. As a rule, the more foam a powder produces, the higher its surfactant concentration. The idea that increased foaming indicates good washing qualities of the powder is extremely erroneous and arose a long time ago, back when ordinary laundry soap was used for washing.

Features of choice of baby powder

So, you have a baby.And, undoubtedly, the question of how to choose baby powder will very quickly arise before young parents. The range of baby powders provided to consumers is extremely wide. And therefore, it is not surprising that parents are at a loss in their choice, trying to buy the best baby washing powder. And not only the cleanliness of children's clothes depends on the right choice, but also, as already mentioned, the child's health. That is why it is so important to know how to choose baby washing powder. After all, treating allergic reactions in a baby is a rather troublesome and labor-intensive process, and in addition, allergies cause a lot of unpleasant minutes for the baby. That is why, before buying baby washing powder, be sure to pay attention to the following factors:

Hypoallergenicity. A good infant powder should not contain active chemicals in its composition. The skin of the baby is 12 times more sensitive than the skin of an adult, so the children's organism responds much more quickly to irritants in the form of chemicals with skin allergic diagnoses, for example, atopic dermatitis.

The naturalness of the composition. The most important thing in a good, high-quality and safe detergent is the natural ingredients that make up its composition. All components should be easily washed out of the fibers of the fabric when rinsing, so as not to irritate the delicate baby skin. Often it is for this indicator that dermatologists determine which detergent for children is better.

Softness in the care. Children's laundry detergent should not have a pungent odor. It should also dissolve well in water, without forming lumps, which then, when dried, remain on the fibers of clothing. It is also highly desirable for young children, newly born, to use a detergent powder that has a note on the package that it is intended for washing just new-born babies.

How correctly to wash baby clothes?

In order to reduce the risk of developing possiblecomplications for the baby's health, the mother must follow some simple rules for washing baby clothes and underwear. You should not neglect these simple rules at first glance, since their observance greatly facilitates the mother's work and protects the baby's health. For example, many mothers prefer to wash children's things the old-fashioned way, using ordinary laundry soap. There is a widespread belief that laundry soap is not capable of causing any allergic reactions in a child. However, in fact, this is not true - laundry soap contains a huge amount of alkali, which has a rather strong irritating effect on sensitive baby skin. If you do not trust baby washing powders and categorically refuse to use them, try to use ordinary baby powder instead of laundry soap when washing. However, do not forget that hand washing takes a huge amount of time, which you so need now and which is always so lacking. It is much wiser to entrust the care of the cleanliness of baby things to a washing machine.

Washing in the washing machine

Washing baby clothes in a washing machine is alsohas several features. Fortunately, most modern models of washing machines are equipped with the necessary programs for washing children's clothes. However, experienced mothers rarely use them, knowing a few tricks that allow you to wash children's clothes no less efficiently, but with the least amount of water and electricity. To do this, you need to set the following parameters in the machine:

• The type of fabric is cotton. This choice is explained very simply - after all, most of the children's clothing is made from cotton fabric.
• Washing temperature.Depends on what exactly you are washing. If you are planning to wash diapers, feel free to set the temperature to 95% - such washing fully replaces boiling diapers. But if you need to wash undershirts or children's suits, a temperature of 40 degrees will be more than enough.
• Must use the function"Additional rinse". Such a measure will allow you to be absolutely sure that all the remains of children's detergent powder are completely removed from the baby's clothing fibers.

In the same case, if you still – for some reason –либо причинам вынуждены стирать детскую одежду и белье руками, замачивайте предварительно пеленки в очень горячей воде, а также обязательно следите за полосканием – на ткани ни в коем случае не должно оставаться ни алейших следов стирального порошка, пусть даже предназначенного именно для детей и совершенно гипоаллергенного. Замачивать детское белье, впрочем, как и стирать, необходимо отдельно от взрослой одежды. То же самое справедливо и в отношении хранения детского грязного белья и одежды. Первое, о чем вам необходимо позаботиться, это приобретение специальной емкости, в которую потом вы и будете складывать грязные пеленка, ползунки и прочую детскую одежду. Чистое белье также следует хранить на отдельной полке, предназначенной только для детской одежды. Старайтесь перестирывать все грязное белье малыша в течение суток, не дожидаясь, когда у вас в ванной комнате соберется огромное количество грязной одежды и пеленок. Старайтесь стирать детскую одежду по мере ее поступления. Конечно же, не надо бросать в стиральную машинку, рассчитанную на загрузку пяти килограмм сухого белья, одну – две пеленки. Но и собирать их в течение длительного времени также не стоит. Все новые вещи, которые вы приобретаете для своего крохи, либо кто-то дарит их вам, перед тем, как надеть на ребенка, необходимо выстирать. И только после этого надевать обновку на кроху. Многие родители считают подобную меру предосторожности излишней. Конечно же, делать это или нет – решать только вам. Однако представьте себе, сколько человек могло смотреть эту вещь, трогать ее руками, пока она была в магазине. Вопрос о том, необходимо ли ладить детское белье после стирки, вызывает достаточно большой резонанс в обществе молодых родителей. Кто – то считает делать это – своим родительским долгом, а кто-то пренебрегает глажкой, считая ее чем-то вроде пережитка прошлого и не видя в ней никакой необходимости. Сказать однозначно, кто из них прав, а кто нет, практически невозможно. Педиатры же рекомендуют проглаживать детские вещи с двух сторон только в течение первых двух недель жизни крохи. Наверное, не стоит много говорить о том, что пеленки прочую детскую одежду родители должны содержать в образцовом порядке и чистоте. Нельзя бросать грязное белье на пол – для этого у вас должна быть специальная емкость, предназначенная именно для сбора грязной детской одежды. Ни в коем случае недопустимо подсушивать описанные малышом пеленки, после чего снова использовать их. Подобные действия неизбежно очень быстро приведут к возникновению у малыша опрелостей. Описанную пеленку следует отправить в стирку, заменив ее чистой. Если же пеленка запачкана детскими испражнениями, ее немедленно следует замочить либо же сразу постирать. Если же вы оставите ее на некоторое время, вы рискуете получить такие пятна, вывести которые будет очень сложно, а зачастую и просто нереально. После стрики детское белье желательно развесить таким образом, чтобы при сушке его не трогали руками и чтобы оно ни с чем не соприкасалось. Если у вас есть такая возможность, постарайтесь вывесить белье на просушку таким образом, чтобы на него попадали солнечные лучи, которые дополнительно обеззараживают и дезинфицируют его.
