Becki's Product Reviews: Week 4

Toothpaste is a somewhat boring product to buy. Right along with dental floss, dish soap... and other boring necessities of life. I used to buy the cheapest kind of toothpaste possible. Until I realized that most regular brand toothpastes contain artificial sweeteners and flavorings. And that seemed a little counterproductive to me. So I made the switch to natural. At first it was super hard, because I was so used to the fake sweet flavor of regular toothpaste. And to be honest, some natural toothpaste out there leave a lot to be desired. I really appreciate toothpaste that tastes good. And Now's Xyliwhite tastes good! 
XyliWhite™ is a fluoride-free toothpaste gel from NOW Foods. Xylitol is a natural sugar alcohol with a taste and texture that is remarkably similar to table sugar, with 40% fewer calories! Unlike many of the chemicals found in other fluoride-based, whitening toothpastes, xylitol is an all natural, well-tolerated substance that occurs naturally in many fruits, berries and other natural sources. In fact, the human body manufactures as much as 15 grams of xylitol every day.

XyliWhite™ toothpaste is completely safe for users of every age. Available in Cinnafresh, Refreshmint, and Platinum Whitening Mint.

My favorite flavor is Refreshment.
