o.b. tampons pulled off shelves
ilovesecretagents:
The reports in the F.D.A. database about o.b. tampons included complaints of headache, fever, nausea and abdominal pain as well as infections caused by tampon remnants remaining in the body. One complaint from last year concerned a consumer who said she had been using o.b. tampons for two years.
“Consumer saw her physician and...
Cant be Veg because you love cheese too much?
enjoyahimsa:
According to the studies done by the Wellcome Research Labs in NC, casein (a milk protein) is the equivalent of nicotine when it comes to dairy products. Casein is found in all dairy, but the most is found in cheese. Casein can have an opiate-like effect, which is chemically addictive. So the truth is: you probably have a literal addiction. Time to bust out the support group.

Can you all spend 2 seconds of your time to vote “yes” in supporting same-sex marriage? I don’t really care where you live, but the more people who vote for marriage equality the better. There is no guarantee that same-sex marriage will happen in MD, but the more people on our side the better. Thanks.

A couple of days after the fall of Hosni Mubarak, 24-year-old Nawara Belal was driving in Cairo when she was verbally abused by an army officer.
“I got out of my car, opened the door of his car and slapped him in the face,” she said. “I realized he wouldn’t do anything about it, and it gave me the power to do what I wanted to do to every harasser in my past.
“I would never have been able to do...

John Hopkins Operates On Live Pigs.
theinformedvegan:
John Hopkins Medical School may be violating the law by requiring medical students to operate on live pigs. The school says the live operations are essential to student learning while activists claim that it causes “unnecessary suffering and pain” and is therefore illegal.
At John Hopkins, healthy pigs are operated on to give students the chance to “feel live tissue.”...
F.A.Q.: Cosmetic Animal Testing
veggiebeauty:
This is a topic I get many questions on, so I thought I’d cover some f.a.q. in this post. It is not a comfortable subject to discuss animal cruelty, but to make smart decisions we need to be aware of what we are supporting.
1. Is it required by law for companies to test on animals?
It is a misconception that companies are required by law to test on animals. While this may have...
If you are a Thinspo blog, please unfollow me.
For some reason, a ton of thinspo blogs started following me. I’m okay with vegan/food blogs, but please no thinspo/ana/eating disorder blogs. I should also add that people who are using ‘vegan’ as a cover up for an ED are making me pretty upset :(
If you’d like to talk about eating disorders, please use my ask box. I won’t be following back any eating disorder...
growltiger:
Just sitting here donating money to Planned Parenthood in memory of my mom! She was fiercely pro-choice and explained to me the importance of choice when I was a kid and I wasn’t even sure what an abortion was yet. Everyone else in elementary school was Catholic and therefore when we debated the issue in 6th grade (why did we debate this issue in 6th grade?) and voted on it in the...

^ This is a true story.
Dear Congress, Cutting funding for Planned Parenthood is not ending abortions; it is ending life-saving medical care for women who otherwise could not afford it. Please don’t do this to me.
