6. Brighten Your Whites
After a while, many white clothing items tend to look a bit dingy. Many products that can be used to whiten and brighten laundry can also irritate your skin. To brighten your whites with Alka Seltzer, simply place two tablets in a pan of water along with your white clothing items. After about an hour wash your clothing as normal. In my opinion, this method is as effective as OxiClean.
