Re: Tom's of Maine       04/29/05 07:50 AM Edit Reply Quote AlyssaKaye Reged: 03/21/05 Posts: 193 Loc: USA I have a tube of Tom's of Maine that lists the ingredients as such: Glycerin, water, calcium carbonate (chalk), hydrated silica, fruit extracts (strawberry, bananna, and other natural flavors), carragennan (seaweed), sodium lauryl sulfate (from coconut oil). This was the Kids Silly Strawberry flavor, btw. (I'm allergic to mint). Underneath, it says: * No Saccharin * No Artificial Sweeteners or Preservatives * No Artificial Color or Flavor * No Animal Ingredients * So....I would thing that the tally for Tom's (at least this flavor would be generally safe (unless you need to specifically avoid sls). I have to say though, it cleans my teeth just fine, but leaves them feeling a bit "sticky" somehow. It just makes me want to go eat something (no exactly the desired effect for a toothpaste!). But it's better than no toothpaste. It does contain flouride. *Note to any with Fibro though--it's in the old fashion aluminum type tubes, and I find it quite a battle to squeeze, especially if I'm tired. Probably doesn't matter for most though, my family swears its perfectly easy. -------------------- ~~~Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.~~~ Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
