Research found most toothpastes are hazardous, Throw it away right now!!

Had you ever felt irritation, red spots or dry skin just after taking a bath?

It seems to be some problem with your skin but no its not. It's not a problem with your skin but there's problem with your soap. But what does soap has to do with toothpastes?

Yes, there's link between your soap & toothpaste which is interestingly 'Foam'.
Foam which is seen during washing clothes, utensils, bathing & even during brushing your teeth.

This foam is created by a chemical known as 'Sodium Lauryl sulphate/sulfate'. Particularly 'Sodium Lauryl sulfate' also written as 'E487 or SLS' is banned in Europe due to its harmful affects.

Research conducted by NCBI & EMA shows that this chemical is responsible for skin degradation as it's used in vitro (performed or taking place outside a living organism).
The same chemical can be found in your toothpaste, but this time you're not using it externally it's within body (in vivo). Many toothpaste brands seems to use this chemical to create huge amount of foam.

But if there would be no foam means there would be no cleaning, correct? People often compares the cleaning tendency with the amount of foam created. If you watch television advertisements, they’ll frequently compare the amount of foam in a cleaning product to another to prove that it’s superior. Also, they’ll commonly say or imply that the amount of foam reflects the cleaning ability of product. No its just a Myth.

    Scientifically, the true purpose of foam is to provide contact time on a soiled surface to allow the wetting agents, detergents and degreasers enough time to do their jobs. Simply means to maintain the surface wet, that's all.
Having this chemical to be used in toothpaste is just a show off to their products. But affects customers dental health drastically and if swallowed it's even more harmful.

Thus there's is warning on toothpaste saying 'Don't swallow & keep out of children's reach'.

Your toothpaste is more hazardous than it's responsibility to keep teeth healthy.

Conclusion:

Don't use those toothpaste containing 'Sodium Lauryl sulfate' or 'SLS' or 'E487'

Alternatives:

Use our traditional methods
1. Babool, Neem etc sticks

2. Turmeric + Coconut/Mustard oil + salt ( just polish over teeth using finger )
These methods were in use since ages and people do have strong & beautiful teeth.
