The Hidden Cost of Ignoring Menstrual Health at Work
More and more workplaces are implementing free and readily accessible menstrual products in washrooms, though lately, there may be greater hesitation from those who usually reach for tampons. A recent study published in Environment International went viral on social media after it found that a selection of tampons from several widely available tampon brands contained measurable concentrations of potentially dangerous metals.
No one wants to hear that the products they’ve been using for several days each month contain arsenic, lead and other harmful metals. It’s no wonder that many have indicated an immediate desire to stop using tampons, expressing outrage at the study’s findings—but it’s important to read the fine print.

Expert delves into the complexities of HPAI and milk consumption
After detection, the news rapidly flooded with information, bombarding the public with concerns about HPAI’s H5N1 variant, especially as virus particles were found in one out of five milk samples tested by the Food and Drug Administration. The announcements caused people to question, “Is milk safe to drink?” The answer is consistently and overwhelmingly, “Yes if it’s pasteurized” — meaning the milk has been heat treated to sterilize it.
We asked biomedical scientist and founder of Immunologic, Dr. Andrea Love, to clear up some of the concerns and confusion swirling around HPAI, dairies, and beef. Along with a passion for helping the public and healthcare professionals understand scientific topics, Love is a subject-matter expert in infectious disease and immunology, and she was recently featured on the Food Bullying Podcast thanks to her passion for translating complex topics for the public.
