if you want the cheaper options, they usually are made with toxic chemicals to prolong your period so you have to buy more. 🙃

“In a series of lab analyses commissioned between 2020 and 2022 by the consumer watchdog site Mamavation and Environmental Health News, 48% of sanitary pads, incontinence pads, and panty liners tested were found to contain PFAS, as were 22% of tampons and 65% of period underwear.”
TIL 😳
YUP! i use honeypot bc it’s literally the only brand that actually doesn’t use toxic chemicals bc a lot of “organic” brands will LIE

u and me opposite in it.. i personally can't stand pads. i just use oralb tamps.. pricier ones bc they sit better.. hope it's healthier.. no idea what to look out for rly.. box says no toxic chems but you never know nowadays 😂
Yup. detoxproject.org tested 365 brand "organic" oats, and found 1500 ppb glyphosate. Somebody be lyin'.
If only the FDA would leave Amish farmers alone and enforce their own rules. Legal limit is 50ppb glyphosate for consumer products - and yet much of the non-organic wheat and corn tests out at ~1500ppb. This is caused by spraying the crop to "dry" it on a schedule before harvest, which is an unlabeled use, and itself an illegal practice. (Roundup is labeled *only* for weeding fields 7 or more days before planting.)
