Because traditionally castile soap was made from olive oil, however with the different types of plants cultivated now, castile soap can be made with other types of oil. Kirk's uses coconut and Dr. Bronners uses a variety like hemp, coconut, palm, olive, etc. Castile means soap not made from animal fats.
You are correct, however it's made from natural ingredients (hydrogen peroxide and sodium carbonate). When these react together, it forms sodium percarbonate. stppgroup.com/products/detergent-chemicals/sodium-percarbonate/

Nonsense. Salt dissolves far faster than the other ingredients, so isn’t an effective abrasive. Its use is based on clueless housewife wishful thinking.
The "abrasive" component isn't the traditional "abrasive" like manual grinding sense. The salt is the thickener. Also, common sense tells us that salt water is abrasive, hense why people have to clean off their boats after being at sea. www.armandhammer.com/en/articles/laundry-detergent-ingredients#:~:text=Sodium%20chloride%20%E2%80%93%20NaCl%20is%20simply,enzyme%20stabilizer%20in%20liquid%20detergents.
@@mywanderingnest Nonsense. The amount used doesn’t change diluted soapy wash water’s viscosity. Your link refers to formulation of a liquid detergent. The idea about sea water and boats is similarly bogus. You are possibly confusing abrasive with corrosive. Don’t quit your day job, lady. You’re no chemist.
@FrankGutowski-ls8jt are you a chemist? What do you use for your laundry? Because what I said at the end "someone a lot smarter than me developed this recipe". The recipe link is in the description.
@@mywanderingnest Using soap to wash laundry is obsolete. It’s not been used for over 70 years, except by clueless DIY enthusiasts. It requires hot water, vigorous agitation, and thorough rinsing. No modern washer is designed to use it. It deposits scum, which traps dirt and harbors bacteria, making fabrics dingy, smelly, coarse, and water repellent. It’s more likely to cause irritation than mainstream products which are formulated to rinse cleanly. You’re barking up the wrong tree by following advice from clueless mommy bloggers.
How can the bar soap be made from coconuts and also be Castile?

I am happy you found something that works for your outbreaks. Fantastic! Thanks for giving people options. You are appreciated. 😍
This was really interesting and helpful! I might try it! How much laundry detergent do you add to a full load?
I use 1 T for a regular load and 2 T for a large/full load, but I always just use 1/2 c of vinegar, that's just me though!
Sodium percarbonate doesn’t occur naturally, so can’t be “natural”.

Hydrogen peroxide doesn’t occur naturally. The chemical process used to produce it doesn’t involve a naturally occurring compound.

Yikes. They’re peddling soap, lady. Are you that gullible? What do you expect to hear from Kirk’s?
