A member asked:
If youve eaten dishwasher and laundry powder as well as dryer sheets for years what could happen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PICA: Consumption of detergent powders can cause kidney damage and ultimately cause the kidneys to fail. Dryer sheets are less problematic, other than bowel obstruction, since the wax on them is non toxic. See a therapist that can help with tools to combat what is called PICA (obsessive consumption of non edible substances)
