The Toxic Chemicals in Tampons Every Woman Needs to Know About

You work hard to eat clean, move your body, and support your health, but have you ever thought about what's in your tampons, pads, or period panties? In this episode, I sit down with Jennifer Eden to discuss this health topic that most women never think to question, yet it could be affecting so much, from period pain to hormone health.Jennifer shares how her debilitating endometriosis pain led her to discover that chemicals in conventional period products were making her condition worse. And when she switched to purely certified organic cotton, her symptoms subsided after just a few months.We dig into the ingredient list of most period products available on store shelves, and why even products labeled "organic" may not be as safe as you'd expect. Jennifer breaks down exactly what certifications to look for (GOTS and ICEA) and what "organically grown" versus "certified organic" really means.Conclusion:This is one of those episodes that makes you realize you can be doing everything right with food and lifestyle, and still have a blind spot that's working against you.
