Lafe's Organic Baby Products
With Lafe's new line of baby products, they've raised the bar on their high standards to unprecedented new levels. Not only are these products at least 95 percent certified organic, but they are also packaged in plastic free of estrogenic activity. This baby-safe, EA-free plastic addresses the concerns recently raised by consumers over Bisphenol A and creates a higher standard to safeguard against chemicals that trigger endocrine disruption. Lafe's developed these products to address concerns about the alarming rise of infertility in young couples and the impact of EA chemicals on children's hormonal functions.
Lafe's baby products are free of Bisphenol A and phthalates, the most commonly-known endocrine disruptors. They're also free of a number of other chemicals that, while not as well-known to consumers, also trigger endocrine disruption. Because we address what's in the packaging as well as what's in the product, they'll providing parents with a welcome and worry-free choice for their babies.
Why Lafes Doesn't Use Fragrances in Their Baby Products
A study out from the New England Journal of Medicine shows that "repeated topical use of products containing lavender oil and/or tea tree oil may cause prepubertal gynecomastia, a rare condition resulting in enlarged breast tissue in boys prior to puberty, and for which a cause is seldom identified."
Part of the reason we keep our products fragrance-free is because of the growing concern that essential oils - even ones as seemingly benign as lavender and tea-tree oils - may carry a significant enough level of estrogenic activity that they affect children. This new study is an indication of the importance of clean and simple formulations in any product for children. Therefore, Lafes has created clean-smelling baby products without adding anything to the mix, and will continue to do so, especially in light of studies like this.
