Guest guest Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 The toothsoap I recommended doesn't have floride in it. Its available in Peppermint and Cinnamon Ingredients: Specially formulated patent pending soap made from saponified coconut, palm, olive and essential oil. NO added glycerin, sweeteners, silicates (sand), fluoride, dyes, stabilizers or other material that can damage teeth. Made in the USA in a facility licensed by the Oregon Department of Agriculture.

(Boy I hope I have this correct) Anyway, when you saponify the oils the lye splits the fatty acids off turning them into soap and leaving free glycerin. It is as natural as natural can be. As long as you use vegetable oils you will have vegetable glycerin. If you use animal fats then you will have flesh based glycerin. Glycerin, by the way, is very good for you skin and hair. It helps to hold in moisture and makes your hair look and feel wonderful. -- Peace, love and light, Don Quai " Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man.

I read it takes 22 rinses to get "glycerin added" toothpaste off your teeth and only 2 rinses to get the glycerin-free (or only traces of glycerin) soap off.
