This is the only cornstarch I use. It's imported from France where GMO corn has long been banned. Even after an EU court attempted to rule the ban illegal France has remained steadfastly against the cultivation of GM corn (called maize there).
Unfortunately, it's estimated that 90% of US and Canadian corn crops are GM contaminated (with some estimates as high as 100%) and this includes organic. I'm grateful to be able to find this product on Amazon since none of my local natural stores seem to carry it anymore. I could request it I suppose, but I don't use much of this, mostly for my DIY deodorant.
Here's the recipe if you're interested - it's actually quite effective and doubles nicely as toothpaste.
6 TB coconut oil
4 TB baking soda
4 TB cornstarch
24 drops frankincense
Note that frankincense is preferable over lavender (which is also slightly antimicrobial) because lavender contains estrogen mimickers which are hormone disruptors. Occasional lavender is okay (unless you have a hormonal cancer) but we're being bombarded with this essential oil in everything from soap to shampoo to conditioner, often on a daily basis. Peppermint oil is also an estrogen mimicker.
Corn starch from certified organic and GMO free corn.
