Modern toothpaste is a heavy mix of chemicals and synthetics to clean, polish and and maintain healthy teeth and gums. Are these ingredients safe, or even necessary?

Many people these days live a healthier lifestyle. They reduce or even eliminate their bad fat intake, replace refined poisonous sugar with ingredients such as Stevia (the plant native to South America), Xylitol (naturally found in the fibers of many fruits and vegetables), Erythritol (occurs naturally in some fruits and fermented foods) and/or Lakanto (natural blend of erythritol and monk fruit extract).

Health activists try to avoid heavily processed food that contain artificial flavors, colors, sweeteners and chemicals such as aspartame, neotame, sodium saccharin, splenda (sucralose, E955), MSG (Monosodium glutamate). Research has shown it is a neurotoxin damaging the nervous system and brain, linked to hormonal imbalances, weight gain, obesity (which by now is an epedimic almost world wide!) and a variety of other health problems.

Eat more certified organic vegetables and fruits grown without toxic herbicide and pesticide spraying, chemical fertilizers, irradiation or going through a gas chamber. Also clean your home with non-toxic products.

But have you given any thoughts to what you are swishing around your mouth at least twice a day? It seems that toothpaste is almost as old as teeth and early population used abrasives like crushed oysters shells, bone and eggshells mixed with flavoring and powered charcoal. Later, essential oils of peppermint, spearmint or cinnamon made brushing the teeth more pleasant and helped kill bacteria at the same time. Most commercial toothpastes have ingredients such as SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulphate), Fluoride, PVMMA co polymer, sodium saccharin, artificial color etc.
