Wellness Wednesday: Safer Toothpastes
from Today’s Gut Health Tip · host Melissa Hall Klepacki, M.Ac.
Who would think that many commercially available toothpastes contain toxins. With the lining of the mouth being so very thin it is prone to irritation and even infection when coming into contact with toxins. Plus, the nature of scrubbing teeth with a toothbrush can irritate your gums causing even more absorption. Please take a minute to check your toothpaste for any of these toxic ingredients: DEA Flouride Propylene Glycol Triclosan SLS Saccharin & Aspartame You can check out the Environmental Working Group to see how your current toothpaste measures up here: https://www.ewg.org/ As always, products we love and approve are on our Amazon Wellness Warrior checklist here: http://bit.ly/GuudChecklist
