Did you know? Traditional To***co vs. Commercial To***co
Traditional to***co and commercial to***co are not the same. πΏ Traditional to***co has deep cultural, spiritual, and medicinal significance for many American Indian and Alaska Native communities, with practices that vary by Tribe. Commercial to***co is manufactured and sold for profit and can contain harmful chemicals and toxins that contribute to addiction and serious health conditions.
Understanding this distinction helps us respect Indigenous traditions while recognizing the health harms associated with commercial to***co use.

Don't let the packaging fool you!
