You stopped because you assumed toothpaste contained lead without knowing yet?


Fluoride on its own is pretty toxic. There's a reason you are not supposed to eat the paste and kids do non-fluoride for a while.


Fluoride and fluoridated water are non toxic in the levels it's used at and it's a privilege for us to have access to it.

If fluoride wasn't put in water by the "guberment" supplement companies would absolutely be hawking it to people as a miracle mineral, including it in our multivitamins and more.

No, I have sensory issues related to toothpaste.
