What is the difference between antibacterial soap regular soap and all natural soap?

Antibacterial soaps contain Triclosan, a water soluble organic compound that has shown to have anti bacterial properties. Regular soaps are just a mixture of fatty acids, oils, or detergents. All natural soaps usually boast that they are made of "natural ingredients" and do not contain harsh detergents or synthetic ingredients like perfume. Most often, antibacterial soaps are not necessary to kill germs , as regular soap has been shown to kill just as many germs with thorough washing. Antibacterial soaps can be bad for the environment. Triclosan can not be "rid" during water treatment filtration processes, so it usually ends up in local streams where it can have devastating effects on aquatic life.

Does antibacterial soap kill more bacteria than regular soap?

Actually, "regular" soap doesn't kill germs; it simply weakens their bond to your skin by removing skin oil. The mechanical action of lathering, combined with the flushing action of running water, removes gems but it doesn't necessarily kill them. Antibacterial soaps, on the other hand, not only kill the germs on your skin; they may also leave behind residues that continue the antibacterial action for a few hours. They are also sometimes equal because they both remove the same amount of bacteria on your hands
