When I first became interested in organic and natural products, I would drive twenty miles to the nearest organic health food store to shop because none of the regular stores around me dared to carry such things. The product selection at the organic store was limited at the time, as they were a new shop trying to establish themselves within a skeptical community, but one of the best things they had on their shelves was a host of Tom’s of Maine products.

I stood in front of the display for almost fifteen minutes trying to decide which product I wanted to use first, and then I reached for the toothpaste. It was my first endeavor into healthier clean teeth without dangerous additives, and I’ve never looked back since. I went back the next week and picked up their deodorant, and then I tried their soap. Not only did I feel better about the products I was using, but they smelled so good.

These days, as people have become more conscious about the things they put into our bodies, Tom’s of Maine is in nearly every local grocery store among the dental care, soap and deodorant products.

Tom’s of Maine promises their customers that all their ingredients are naturally sourced, they don’t test on animals, they don’t use any artificial additives and they strive to make all of their containers easy to recycle.

In a world becoming quickly more aware of the need to not only take better care of our bodies, but the planet that sustains us, Toms of Maine is a stand-up, environmentally aware company with wonderful products.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I wanna go brush my teeth!
