DIY TOOTHPASTE
![]()
There’s a great deal of debate over the safety of conventional toothpaste ingredients – fluoride and sodium laurel sulfate, to name a few. But switching to so-called natural brands can cost $5 a tube or more, not to mention all the waste involved in tossing out messy, non-recyclable tubes of toothpaste. There are lots of recipes out there – with flavors and textures to suit about anyone. This is a really simple, inexpensive recipe from
Seeking the Old Paths.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons baking soda
- 5 drops peppermint essential oil
- 5 drops spearmint essential oil
- A pinch of Stevia powder
Instructions:
Mix everything together in
a small, lidded container. Coconut oil is anti-viral and anti-bacterial so you can dip your toothbrush into the mixture, or scoop a little out and apply it to your brush.
