How To Find Non-Toxic Period Products

Period products come in contact with your most intimate and sensitive body parts… but what are they actually made out of?

There are a host of chemicals commonly found in tampons and pads, such as dioxins, fragrances, dyes, plasticizers, and more.

Look for these 3 ingredients for safer menstrual hygiene products.

1

Unbleached 100% Organic Cotton If you can't find 100% cotton, at least look for cotton covers for pads and liners
