Is Organic Baby Clothing A Healthy Alternative?

Various researchers have shown that cotton, which is cultivated on 2.5 percent of the world’s land, uses more than 25 percent of the world’s insecticides and pesticides. It can take almost 150 grams of synthetic fertilizers to grow 450 grams of raw cotton, and it takes just under 450 grams of raw cotton to make one t-shirt. Besides polluting the environment, the residue of these toxins is, invariably, found on the manufactured clothing.

Babies are particularly susceptible to these harmful chemicals as their skins are exceedingly soft and porous; their natural protection against harmful chemicals is also low. Researchers have observed that the use of conventional clothing, which has been sprayed with chemicals; both during the phase of growing and manufacturing them at the factories, can leave the baby exposed to those poisonous substances. This can cause skin irritations, asthma and other respiratory problems, and even lead to cancer when exposed long term.

The recent advent of organic clothing seems to be a blessing for babies and parents equally. Organic baby clothing is made from materials which comply with the organic agricultural standards and thus are free from herbicides, insecticides and genetically modified seeds. Organic clothing makes use of all natural methods to grow and treat cotton. Green babies live more contented and healthier lives making their parents more relaxed. Being chemical free, it is kind to the environment. More and more parents are becoming aware of organic clothing and toys and choosing the “healthy alternative” for their babies. With organic toys and clothes, parents need not be alarmed every time the baby puts its sleeves or toys in its mouth.
