No Fluoride Toothpaste: No SLS, Fluoride Free Toothpaste or Make Your Own Toothpaste

Posted by on August 28, 2011 · 1 Comment

With the public awareness about the dangers of fluoride growing rapidly, many people are wondering where they can buy fluoride free toothpaste, and what toothpaste brands offer no fluoride toothpaste without Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (or Sodium Lauryth Sulphate (SLES) is a harsh chemical commonly found in toothpaste, shampoos, conditioners, bubble bath, body washes, shaving cream, cosmetics, mouthwash, laundry detergents, engine degreasers, garage floor cleaners etc, used by industry as a powerful degreaser and foaming agent.

Although Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) originates from coconuts, the chemical is anything but natural. SLS is an irritant and is an ester of Sulphuric acid, associated with increased aphthous ulcers (canker sores) due to the denaturing effect and irritation of the oral mucosa, as well as eczema. If you are prone to getting canker sores in your mouth, or experience allergic reactions to SLS products on your skin, switch to products and toothpaste without SLS and fluoride in them.

Fluoride in Water – Removing Fluoride From Drinking Water in Dallas, Austin, Plano TX Cities

Posted by on August 22, 2011 · 1 Comment

As subscribed readers and regular visitors know, I’ve been doing a great deal of research into the fluoride controversy, especially the controversy surrounding water fluoridation and where the fluoride added to water supplies actually comes from. Public awareness about fluoride in municipal water supplies, fluoride in bottled water etc is rapidly growing. That’s a very good thing.

When I research a topic, I spend alot of time digging deep into the subject, sometimes to the point of obsession. I make no apologies for doing whatever I can to help bring greater awareness to the fluoride debate, and the sooner every average citizen like myself decides to spend some time learning about water fluoridation and where the fluoride comes from, the better.

Proactiv Solution – Proactiv Does Work – Review

Posted by on August 15, 2011 · 2 Comments

I know what you’re going to say, “C’mon now, Proactiv does not work.” Despite what the popular belief about this acne solution is, from someone who’s been using it twice a day for the past couple of weeks; I can tell you, Proactiv Solution does work! I know, I was skeptical of it too. My brother used Proactiv for a while, and seeing that it cleared up his skin, I was sold!

It’s amazing the things we don’t know about our own skin, let alone how to take care of it properly! Now, don’t get me wrong, I don’t have “severe” acne in the slightest bit; my acne is very mild, but very annoying for someone who has to see it every day. I get my flare-ups on my forehead and my chin the most, the “t-zone”.

Fluoridated Water: What Fluoride Is and The Poisonous Dangers of Fluoride In Water

Posted by on August 8, 2011 · 4 Comments

The more I research fluoride and the known harmful side effects on the body from ingesting fluoride, the more astounding and shocking the information becomes. No, I’m not referring to the various “conspiracy theories” that so often cause rational people to completely dismiss and ignore the scientific evidence that proves fluoride is a toxic poison.

Doctors, dentists and average citizens who discount, ignore or dismiss the fluoride debate and controversy haven’t read the literature that proves fluoride is poison. Proponents of fluoridation, for dental treatment or otherwise, can deny and dismiss the scientific evidence to their hearts content, but that won’t make the evidence go away for open-minded people to see the truth about fluoride for themselves.
