Description
Dr Mercola knew he could come up with a toothpaste that was even better than the original, one that would give you refreshingly clean teeth and breath, provide whiteness, and effectively fight and prevent caries (all types of tooth decay) without carrageenan.
Just because many “natural” toothpastes contain carrageenan, SLS, and other potentially harmful ingredients, Dr Mercola’s doesn’t need to. Creating it wasn’t a simple task as his team spent countless hours researching ingredients to take the original toothpaste to the next level.
They carefully scrutinised the source and quality of every ingredient to meet exacting standards:
- Must use organic ingredients whenever available
- No fluoride, but would still provide protection against dental caries
- No genetically engineered ingredients
- No carrageenan or other potentially carcinogenic ingredients
- No synthetic preservatives, but would still have a long shelf life
- No hidden heavy metals, contaminants or impurities
- No harsh chemical foaming agents like SLS or SLES
- No artificial flavours or sweeteners, but would taste good
- No harsh sand (silica), but would still provide whiteness
- No potentially dangerous anti-microbials like Triclosan
The Secret Ingredient for a Sparkling Smile – and Healthy Gums
Instead of using potentially dangerous ingredients, Dr Mercola turned to botanicals to provide cleaning of teeth and gums and whiteness.
One in particular, Holy Basil, or Tulsi, has held his attention for many years as an outstanding overall tonic for health. It’s one of the finest medicinal herbs ever discovered.
Evidently, people in India agree. As part of an ancient custom, family members worship the plant and illuminate it with lamps twice a day. To this day, Holy Basil plays an essential role in worship ceremonies. People believe it protects them from evil and brings good luck.
As for oral care, Tulsi is an exceptional mouth freshener and cleanser, and helps support a beneficial balance of healthy mouth flora. It also helps prevent dental caries while it soothes your mouth. While Ola Botanicals® Tulsi-Mint Toothpaste contains several excellent plant extracts for cleaning teeth and gums, fighting caries, and freshening breath, in Dr Mercola’s opinion, Tulsi is the crowning glory.
