What the HECK!!!!??????!!!!
Have you heard of these little contraptions??????
Some new fancy little thing on the market, that got it's way into super markets BEFORE any of our Beloved fancy snap and velcro cloth diapers have.
They tout themselves as being good for the environment, hence the name gdiapers, as in green-diapers???
They have a cloth washable outer, good.
Then they have this little liner that pops in the elastic outer like an absorbent pad, ok.
So you put this diaper on baby, they take a doo doo or whatever, you then proceed to Flush the entire pad down your toilet?????? HUH?
Yes, it all gets flushed, wood pulp, stay dry liner, and all.
Well then they have a bunch of non-sense on their website about cloth diapers using too much water so they can sell their product, here, I'll qute it for you;
"A diaper service that uses a ton of water and chemicals to clean the diapers!"
"how easy they are on the environment compared to other types of diapers (including cloth)."
That is just a tiny sample about what they are infering, and flat out saying against cloth diapers.
and if that wasn't bad enough, wait till you hear this.......
Not only does that little pad contain bleached wood pulp, and a stay dry liner made of petroleum products, but it also has those awful absorbent GELS!!!!!
That's right they expect you to believe that these are BETTER THAN CLOTH DIAPERS!!!
Read this quote about the Gel (polysodiumacrylate)
"What is SAP?
SAP stands for super absorber. A.K.A. sodium polyacrylate. SAP are the small crystals mixed with soft, fluffed wood pulp that make up the contents of the flushable. It is an amazing material, able to absorb up to 100 times it's weight in water.
SAP is proven to be safe and effective by over 400 studies, which is why we have chosen to use it. It is found in most disposable diapers and feminine hygiene products, safe for humans and harmless to the environment."
NOT TRUE!!!!
:
These "crystals" are NOT SAFE!
First of all, it was taken out of tampons (feminine hygiene products) due to the link with Toxic shock that killed hundreds of women, and second there is NO WAY to ever test for this awful stuff in drinking water!!!!!! And it is NOT safe or environmental in anyway shape of form!
Am I saying that this product is worse than disposables, no, I'm saying that they have some misinformation on their website, and I for one am emailing them!!
Please let me know your views on this subject!!!
