My Holistic Dental Care Testimony
I used to have sensitive teeth. I used to use a maximum strength sensitive toothpaste. I used to use a numbing gel I got from my dentist everyday. And I STILL had sensitive teeth & gums. And then I started making DIY, nontoxic, homemade toothpaste & mouthwash and started oil pulling.
My sensitive teeth are a thing of the past. Bye bye, Sensodyne!

Many vitamins on the market today are full of synthetic ingredients, dyes, fillers, and artificial flavorings. How our bodies absorb minerals and vitamins from whole food sources is very different than how it is absorbed from synthetic sources. Synthetic iron, calcium, and vitamin D are among the biggest culprits. Learn more about how to choose top notch supplements here.
