Toothpaste warning labels .. per FDA

[Guest guest]

Nature's Gate also has no Fluoride... Some of " Tom's of Maine " does.... Look

for it ...It is labeled.. " Tom's " uses Calcium Fluoride and not Fluoric Acid

that comes from the waste of the aluminum industry... I only use non

Fluoridated Toothpaste always.... Not even Tom's with Fluoride, do I concider

SAFE... The only Calcium Fluoride that is safe is that in a homeopathic remedy

or a Tissue or Cell Salt known as Calcarea Fluoricum. And it should only be

used in situations to aid in dentition and to prevent Osteo Pinia or

Osteoporosis as a tissue salt in the potency of 6x....dry one to three tablets

daily under the supervision of a homeopathic practitioner.

Shaklee Toothpaste Safest for Kids

Special thank you to Kroll from New Jersey for this information.

Did you know most toothpastes carry a health warning? Not Shaklee's!!

When we were in New England this week, my daughter's travelling companion had

Aquafresh Fluoride Toothpaste in her travel bag. When she was brushing her

teeth, I asked if I could see the tube. I was looking for a warning statement

because by law, anything containing fluoride that you might swallow has to have

a health warning.

The tube didn't have the warning so I called the company consumer hotline and

asked them why not? I spoke to a nice young lady named who volunteered

that the FDA didn't enforce the labeling law until recently so maybe this was an

older tube. She looked at 5 samples she had on her desk and said they all had

the warning which basically states that if any toothpaste was swallowed (in

excess of a normal brush-size portion), to " consult a medical professional

immediately since ingestion could be fatal. " She also said, " Everyone knows

that fluoride can be poisonous, it is common knowledge. "

My question to you is: did you know this? She also told me that their

fluoridated toothpastes (they have 5 types) clearly state on the tube and box

that they are for children over the age of 6 and that children should be

supervised, never using more than a pea size drop.

Shaklee has never added fluroride to our toothpaste/dentrifrice. It is an

organic and kosher-certified product. Clinical studies performed with 137

students showed that it was the most effective brand at removing stains from the

teeth. Also, Shaklee feels that a good diet and supplemental natural vitamins

and minerals, especially calcium, are far better and far safer for tooth health

than fluoride.

Below, I have cut and paste some basic info on Shaklee's delicious-tasting and

delicious-smelling spearmint or wintergreen dentifrice from our online product

guide. Just think: with our organic product, you don't have to worry if the

kids swallow any!! And don't use a lot: instead of placing a strip lengthwise

on the toothbrush, place a strip in the other direction. It doesn't take much

to have great looking healthy teeth when you use Shaklee!
