Earlier this month Andrea Donsky of NaturallySavvy.com shared an investigative report, Conventional Feminine Hygiene Products:  A Women’s Issue With Toxic Implications. With it she posted a video (see below) that is spreading online like wild “fire!”

In this video you will see what happens when she sets fire to two different brands of sanitary pads (Always & Natracare). One burns rapidly, which could be a sign of petrochemicals and plastics, while the other one hardly burns. Can you guess which brand is which?

NaturallySavvy.com believes women deserve to know what goes onto and into their bodies every single month, and so do we!! If you agree, we have 3 activities that you can participate in to help show your support.

1. Join us for a special tweet chat on this topic June 14, 2013 (11am PST / 2pm ET). Andrea will be joining us as a special guest to share more and answer questions.

What is Earth Day? Earth Day is an annual day on which events (like this one) are held worldwide to demonstrate support for environmental protection.

Why should you be concerned with environmental protection? To name a few there is: our children’s future, increased waste/pollution, and global warming. But one of the best reasons is the direct effect on our health. Our bodies come into contact with chemicals and toxins daily, but do you know how they are affecting:

  • OUR environment?
  • OUR periods?

Well, that’s exactly what will be covered in this free 60 Minutes to a “Green” Period Webinar on April 22nd.
