The super plus organic tampon without applicator from Natracare is ideal for heavy flow days at the beginning of your period. Made with a rolled wadding of long-fibre organic cotton, it is designed to gently absorb menstrual flow and expand widthways. Plastic free tampons No perfume, rayon or dyes Totally Chlorine Free Ingredients grown without toxic pesticides Biodegradable & compostable Natracare only make organic tampons because most are made from a mix of rayon and non-organic cotton, and are commonly chlorine-bleached. Tampons often have a plastic wrapper, contain perfumes and even dyes. Rayon is a highly absorbent fibre which rapidly absorbs menstrual blood but at the same time can also dry out the natural protective mucous lining of the vagina. No-one should be exposed to pesticide residues, phthalates, azo-dyes and dioxins, especially in such a sensitive and absorptive part of the body. Know exactly what you put in your body.
