Many commercial toothpastes contain irritating soaping agents lke (sodium lauryl sulphate which may cause mouth ulceration), flouride,(toxic if swallowed), silica ( which can erode tooth enamel), triclosan ( an antibacterial now known to be linked to depressionliver problems and cancer), saccharin ( known carcinogen in animals) and the colouring CI 42090 ( banned in many countries due to cancer links). WHAT? Who would think reaching for your regular tube of toothpaste could be so harzardous for your health. Replacing your toothpaste with a natural, plant based alternative is safe way to reduce your bathroom toxicity. Pass the Lemon Myrtle please!
