What are the benefits my baby receives from an organic blanket? – Organic baby blanket series

January 21st, 2009

Benefits for baby:

- Organic products are typically free from harmful chemicals and toxins. Some baby blankets are made using dyes, flame retardants and non-organic fabrics that may contain harmful chemicals.  Other blankets may be packaged in unsafe plastics or pre-cleaned with non-organic cleansers.  Choosing an organic baby blanket (as well as other organic products) reduces the amount of chemical exposure your child will experience.

- Organic products have increased benefits for babies and children.  Because of their high metabolism and low body weights, children are especially susceptible to toxins.  The young brain develops rapidly from conception to age three.  Babies absorb more toxins per pound of body weight than adults.  It is especially important during these years to choose toxin-free products.

Luxury organics company Robbie Adrian has a web page detailing why you should buy organic baby blankets.  The page tells readers that it takes 1/3 of a pound of chemicals to make one conventional cotton t-shirt and that 7 of the top 15 chemicals used in conventionally grown cotton are classified as “known” or “suspected” carcinogens by the EPA.  For more fun facts and information on organic baby blankets, check out the Robbie Adrian “why organic” page at http://www.robbieadrian.com/whyorganic.php.
