Okay, so I am a bit of a naturalist when it comes to my body. I am very aware of what I eat and what is in my food. I also like to be very natural when it comes to medications, vitamins, and really just anything that is going to go into or is going to touch my body. So on a quest to be environmentally sound and avoid unnecessary chemicals I have found a few unique products. Some of these I use, some I am planning on trying, and others are just...interesting...
Alternative ways of thinking have always existed but thanks to the handy dandy internet we now have access to products we never knew existed. Products like the Diva Cup. According to their website Diva Cups have been around since the 1930s, though I am just learning about them now, and an economical choice in the arena of feminine products...
"The Diva Cup menstrual cup is a revolutionary alternative to tampons and pads. Around since the 1930s, this concept has been used worldwide for decades. As the Diva Cup eliminates the inconvenience of disposable products in all their various sizes and absorbencies, it is the MOST environmentally responsible feminine hygiene choice as it is completely reusable. Some great things about the Diva Cup;
Another option are the reusable menstraul pads by Mama Cloth.
These are all natural and organic fabric pads or pantyliners. They come in a variety of fabric and colors and you just throw them in the wash after each use. Very similar to cloth diapering but for an adult woman.

That brings me to these next products. Many of you were likely cloth diapered as a baby, or I am just aging myself here, but either way that used to be the way to do it. Then we moved to the diapers you find in stores today, not good for the environment or your pocket book. Here are some companies who are bringing the cloth diaper trend back...

Now for the subject of baby making (what else are you going to cloth diaper?). These lubricants are environmentally friendly, not tested on animals, and one of the only companies to have a specific formula just for baby making sex. It is unique compared to most off the shelf lubricants that can actually do harm to sperm and many times actually adgitate a woman's sensitive bits.

I hope you enjoyed that list of unique products! I will try to add more as I discover them and share them with you.
Also, I am adding a recipe page very soon because I LOVE to cook and create new delicious and amazing food. I do believe we are made up of what we eat and the way we choose our diets and foods says a lot about our character.
