Many synthetic fiber T-shirts, sweatshirts and shorts are popular with athletes since they often contain technology that helps wick away sweat. While these clothes may wick away moisture, they also absorb odors and can be almost impossible to launder away the smells. The solution is a natural and easy one: Fill a sink with hot water and a few tablespoons of baking soda and white vinegar. Soak the clothes for several hours and launder as normal. The clothes will come out smelling fresh and clean.

Who knew? The FDA legally allows up to a whopping 60 percent of canned or frozen berries to contain mold and still be sold in a supermarket. While many berries are perfectly fine to eat, to be absolutely sure your berries are free from mold, go fresh instead. When strawberries, raspberries and blackberries are in season, freeze them on a flat cookie sheet and store them in airtight containers. Only then do you know they are 100 percent free of mold.

Use that hot water to sterilize your toothbrushes while your cup of tea steeps. Simply hold your brush and pour some hot water over the bristles. This will kill the bacteria.
