My natural health products

Up-to-date: this list has been revised to reflect changes. It shows what I am using right now.

A few years ago, I started to slowly make the switch to naturally made products for hygeine and personal care. I began by purchasing a sampling of items offered by Tom's of Maine. That was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Their stuff is super, and seems to do it's job well.

After trying out other brands and having Tom's close their mail-order service and discontinue some of my favorites, I compiled a listing of what I currently use. It is below, along with some comments.

Product Name Remarks

Tom's of Maine Deoderant or Clear Soap Works well, nice scents and lather

Tom's Anti-Dandruff Shampoo This was really good but is not made anymore

Nature's Gate Rainwater Herbal Shampoo Thin and watery, hard to lather

Powerstick Sport Talc Deoderant Not natural, fine scent. I have not yet found a natural deoderant that works.

Tom's Gentle Honeysuckle Shave Cream Works fine, but the scent is strong. I will try a milder scent next time.

Tom's AntiPlaque Plus Whitening Gel Toothpaste Does a good job, really works. My teeth are whiter!

Burt's Bees Honey Lipbalm Not made with petroleum jelly but with beeswax instead. Smells good, heals chapped lips.

NOW Special One MultiVitamin I like these alot, but $20 for 180 pills is alot when I was able to find 600

NatureMade Essential Daily MultiVitamins for $13.50 at Kmart. The NatureMades are "almost natural" and they are fine...
