I don’t know since when, yellow toilet paper under the banner of “pure natural” has been sought after by many people. Is yellow toilet paper really safer and more hygienic than white toilet paper? Is it better to buy white or yellow toilet paper? This will reveal the mystery for everyone!
Why can yellow toilet paper maintain its "true color"? The color of
paper is greatly affected by the raw materials. Most of the white toilet paper is made of wood fiber, while the raw material of yellow toilet paper is mostly bamboo fiber, which causes the difference in their colors.
The difference in color between the two toilet paper also lies in the difference in their production process. The production process of white toilet paper and yellow toilet paper is roughly the same. The only difference is that yellow toilet paper lacks the bleaching process. Therefore, people often think that yellow toilet paper without bleach is healthier than white toilet paper.
Is yellow toilet paper really natural?
Although most yellow toilet paper does not contain bleach, they are not purely natural either. Unbleached pulp contains more impurities and produces toilet paper with a rougher texture. In order to enhance the texture, some businesses will add some chemicals to soften toilet paper. It should be noted that in order to cater to people's pursuit of natural and green psychology, some unscrupulous merchants will dye white toilet paper into yellow toilet paper for secondary sales. Therefore, everyone must be careful when buying yellow toilet paper, and don’t be deceived by unscrupulous merchants!
Babies should not use yellow toilet paper
Yellow toilet paper has a rough texture and a hard feel. Baby's skin is very delicate. If you don't pay attention when wiping with yellow toilet paper, it may cause discomfort. If mothers want to choose toilet paper for their babies, white toilet paper with good quality is more recommended~
Too white toilet paper will not cause cancer
People often see rumors on the Internet that using too white paper towels will cause cancer. In fact, there is no such thing. Scientifically based. Because the chlorine-containing compounds used in bleaching will be washed repeatedly in subsequent processes, the trace amounts of compounds remaining in the toilet paper are not enough to cause harm to the human body. Therefore, as long as it is toilet paper that meets national standards, whether it is white or yellow, everyone can use it with confidence ~
How to choose toilet paper
1, and the touch method
The simplest and roughest way to judge is the feel. Generally, good toilet paper feels soft and delicate, while poor toilet paper feels rough and has some irregular lines on it.
2. Pulling method
Good quality toilet paper is more flexible and requires greater strength to pull it apart. If the toilet paper tears easily and loses slag, it means that its quality is not up to standard.
3. Mobile phone observation method
Turn on the mobile phone flashlight, put the toilet paper on the flashlight and observe the color uniformity of the toilet paper. Inferior toilet paper is usually not uniform in color because it contains a lot of bleaching powder and impurities.
4. Soaking method
Prepare a cup of water, soak a piece of toilet paper in the water, soak it and stir it with chopsticks.
If the toilet paper is not easily broken, it means that it is of better quality, otherwise it is of poorer quality.

5, combustion method
Use a lighter to light the toilet paper, and observe the color of the ash after burning. If the gray is black, it means that the quality of the toilet paper is not good and it is not raw paper towels.
