COMMENTS: From Natracare's website:

"Over the last 16 years, Natracare has established a trusted reputation amongst women seeking a chemical-free choice in sanitary protection. The natural range now introduces the Natracare new mother line, including Natural Maternity Pads and Natural Nursing Pads.

These high quality products, made from pure materials, that are totally chlorine free (TCF), provide new mothers with an untainted choice. Many do not realise that chlorine bleaching, used in many conventional personal care products, produces unwanted by-products called dioxins, which have been linked to cancer, endometriosis, and immune system suppression.

Natracare Maternity pads and Nursing pads are free from plastics, synthetics and super absorbents made from petro-chemicals, which can have a negative impact, both on women’s health and the environment. During pregnancy, women are naturally more aware of and concerned about the health and care of their bodies. The pureness of Natracare products can provide women with the necessary reassurance that is so important at this time of their lives."
