Researchers at Athlone Institute found that coconut oil makes for an effective toothpaste.

  • it is an antibacterial agent
  • it kills bacteria that releases acid that causes tooth decay
  • it is effective at low concentrations
  • it doesn’t contain nasty chemicals found in toothpaste like triclosan, fluoride, and aspartame

Here’s a recommended recipe for natural toothpaste using coconut oil.

Just mix half a cup of coconut oil with 25 drops of lemon juice and two tablespoons of baking soda. Use this as a toothpaste.

Then flash that pearly smile!
