> seem to be making progress on PFAS too

It’s in your dental floss, too. Switch to silk or another natural fiber for flossing.



It’s basically impossible to avoid. Not only is it added to almost everything, it just accumulates and exists in almost everything else.


My recommendation: Tom's of maine's natural floss is pretty good, but it might be a bit too thick for some folks


I can vouch for RADIUS silk unscented (no mint flavor or any other flavor). Even comes in a plastic-free container made only of cardboard and a small metal edge to cut the floss.

It’s on Amazon.




The website does not mention what these toothpicks are made from, but they look like some kind of plastic. They could very well have PFAS coatings - but we simply don't know since there's no information.
