Organic tampons if you are going for disposable tampons

http://www.natracare.com
As well as providing non-bleached 100% organic cotton tampons and pads, they are also a moral company who do a lot to promote healthier menstrual product alternatives (of course not including competing menstrual products such as menstrual cups such as Divacup or Keeper that are safer, greener, cheaper and more convenient) and educating people as to the environmental and health impact of menstrual options.

If going for any type of tampon combonation you have the option of homemade tampons or sponge tampons such as Jade & Pearl - http://www.jadeandpearl.com

Commercial tampons are the most harmful out of over 20 different menstrual options, not just for health but also the environment due to their [unnecessary] manufacturing processes.

Materials used for manufacturing commercial tampons and commercial pads are not organic also the synthetics waste a lot of trees, these materials also increase risk of infections, vaginal splitting and TSS because of their absorbency.

Chemicals and bleaches used also pose a risk not just by altering vaginal PH causing bacterial and yeast imbalances that can lead to infections and increased risk of TSS but also as your vagina is a major orifice of your body with mucosa (rather than skin that has a protective layer) it means these chemicals can find their way into your body and collect in fatty tissues over time.
Legally tampon and pad manufacturers are not obliged to tell customers what chemicals they use, given as up until the late 1990's they used chlorine gas bleaching, by-product of which was highly toxic dioxin, the chemicals they use could be anything and pose any number or risks.

I like tampax. The plain old tampax. I've tried Kotex and Playtex, and I had leaks with both. Never had a leak with tampax.

It's all about preference and comfort though

I like Playtex Slimfits, which are the ones I find the easiest to insert without discomfort and I have never had a problem with leaks...they are all I can use...

Playtex gentile glide in the blue box, or Kotex because the grips on the applicator so it is easier to insert.

Kotex. The one with the slight ridge so you can get a grip on it to push it through the applicator
