Is my theory that most products we use to maintain our health and hygiene, are in fact detrimental to our health if they do anything at all. I've started working on completing and 'thoroughlizing' this theory since I read an article in a book on how toothpaste is mostly water, aside from binding agents, cleaning agents, bleaching agents, and of course flavor, most of which are bad for your teeth, and how one can get teeth just as clean by brushing with only water. We're now hooked for life (literally) on products such as toothpaste, shampoo and conditioner, etc, when there are easy, natural, and most importantly free ways of maintaining our health.

Hemp Clothing Products, Organic Cotton Linens

All natural (mostly hemp) products such as clothing, foods and body&care products such as deoderant.

Sorry if this is against the rules, but it is a great site. I have purchased many things from it and have been nothing short of satisfied

I know, and we don't need it, yet people use it every single day and will do so for the rest of their lives.
All the terrible chemicals including aspartame in most teeth whitening chewing gums, and chewing gum in general.
We're basically paying companies a yearly salary (because we constantly re-supply on these products) for deteriorating our health.

This makes me feel good about having never used deodorant in my life.
+1 for laziness.

I also enjoy my natural pheromone. Its like when you release a really stinky fart you can't help but breathe in your aroma and think to yourself "Damn I made that? *FFFFFSssss* Yea that shit stinks!"

I think its our old ape ways.

Some fun bits of info I just pulled off of wikipedia regarding some of the main ingredients in commercial toothpastes:

Sodium fluoride

lethal dose for humans is 5-10g

toxic by both inhalation and ingestion

Can cause ulcers in the stomach

affects the heart and circulatory systems

in toothpaste form can cause dental fluorosis

wikipedia



Sodium Carbonate

Sodium carbonate, a mineral dangerous enough to be listed under MSDS for the capability to produce organ damage under repeated or prolonged exposure.

A synthetic salt created from sodium chloride (salt) and limestone

wikipedia



Silica

Silicon Dioxide

Primarily used for making glass and optical fibres for telecommunications

Used as a hard abrasive in toothpaste in hydrated form

studies have shown that it accelerates tooth wear, thus high levels of silica in specific plants must have developed as a defense against herbavore creatures

in powdered form, can lead to silicosis, bronchitis, or cancer

wikipedia



Sodium Saccharin

Used to sweeten products such as drinks, candies, cookies, medicines, and toothpaste

Studies done on laboratory rats showed it to cause bladder cancer

Several countries have banned it as a food supplement

wikipedia



Sodium Lauryl Sulfate

used to thicken toothpaste and create a lather

Used in many cleaning supplies

Can cause skin irritation apthous ulcers

wikipedia



Tetrasodium pyrophosphate

Twice the toxicology of table salt when ingested orally

A thickening agent, commonly used in chicken nuggets, marshmellows, pudding, cat food, household detergents, toothpaste

wikipedia

Know someone that worked at a pepsi company for 15 years and he'll never touch one. The workers have to use hazmat suits when they pour the chemicals in.

It's a shame very few take notice, half the people I talk to don't even know what fluoride is.

Their poor diets have a lot to do with that. And perhaps they don't brush at all. I'm not saying stop brushing, I'm saying just use water to brush, which gets your teeth just as clean as if you were using toothpaste, just without all the harmful chemicals. Need some kind of flavor? Chew on a peppermint leaf or something...

no its scientific fact that there is plaque etc, and cant be cleaned with only water. There are trials where people would brush with water and the other group with toothpaste and obviously the water group wasnt as clean, its science dude. This logic says that HIV virus doesnt need any meds and can be cured with sugar pills
