My goodness, Jessica - a prayer answered! I was just thinking of writing to you the other day and asking if you might consider doing a lil โ€œsubstack seriesโ€ on any natural products (dental or otherwise) you have now converted to! Iโ€™d read about the chewable tablets once before, but never investigated further. I did end up buying Ecodent tooth powder (I like the anise best๐Ÿ˜‰) but I will try this one next...Thank you for this, and look forward to your further thoughts on other things (hello, natural shampoo that works in hard water and smells divine?? ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ) ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—

My wife used to make our toothpaste and I miss it!! If I recall correctly the ingredients included bentonyte clay powder, coconut oil, food grade essential oil (mint flavor), ground egg shells (using a coffee bean grinder and grass fed, free range egg shells) and a sweetener such as Xylitol powder. There may have been some other natura ingredients she used to help with building teeth etc, but with that toothpaste we always had really good feedback on our teeth health from our dentist. We definitely avoid fluoride at all costs!

I ordered NoBS a couple of months ago. A definite thumbs up!

I also tried, and can recommend several products VanMan.com. The tallow and honey moisturizer is fantastic! The tooth powders are ok, but a bit messy (or itโ€™s just me haha).

Iโ€™m also interested in recommendations of soap, shampoo, makeup products, if anyone has any suggestions!

I have avoided fluoride for decades in toothpaste, although they may put it into the water?

Sadly I've been squeezing all the life I can outta an old tube of paste I found, to avoid buying another for a while..

I am a little worried about nano anything....

But I mostly just wanted to say hello JF...

Regards

G
