Here’s what’s new this week…
🥣 Want to make your own toothpaste?
While there are plenty of fluoride-free toothpastes that I recommend, there is still no perfect toothpaste on the market today—compromises must always be made when going store bought. That’s why the DIY recipes on my website have been a tremendously popular way to control exactly what ingredients you’re putting into your body every day.
I have guides for homemade mouthwash, toothpaste, teething remedies, whitening paste, and more, all on my website. Enjoy!
🎧 Episode #49: How to Know If Your Toothpaste Is Abrasive
Tune in to this week’s podcast episode to learn…
- What abrasion indexes are and how hard teeth are
- Pros and cons to all the toothpastes I recommend
- What to look for, and how to choose your toothpaste based on RDA
- What I do to manage my own tooth sensitivity with regard to toothpaste
