Does natural soap kill germs?

Not exactly. It is not antiseptic. It is not anti-bacterial. It can remove some bacteria when the glycerin breaks down their cell walls. Other bacteria may be washed away with the slipperiness of the glycerin.

You don't actually want to use an anti-bacterial agent on your skin everyday. This would destroy the ecosystem that lives on your skin and helps protect you from disease.

We suggest, if you are particularly concerned about germs, keep a bottle of anti-bacterial detergent to use as a hand wash before meals and a tube of antiseptic cream to treat cuts.
