AIM with baking soda:
Warning:as with all flouride toothpastes, keep out of reach of children under 6 years of age. If you accidentally swallow more than used for brushing, seek professional assistance or contact a poison control center immediately.
Active ingrediant: Sodium Monoflourophosphate (.14% wt/vol of flouride ion)
The dentist 'prescribes' 5% flouride paste or mouthwash if you have potential cavities.
I have used CS instead with 100% success in preventing those potential cavities from progressing since 1987...something that 5% flouride has never done.
That's not to say that flouride does nothing to prevent decay, just that CS does much better.

If the acid were then ingested, what does it do to the pH level of the body.Hydrocholric acid is what is termed an organic acid in the nutrician field (but not in the chemistry field). Organic acids do NOT effect the ph of the body, since the body can easily change them between acid salt and alkaline with either potassium or sodium. Ie, it is easily nutralized with sodium to become table salt.
Aren't there certain pH levels that are healthy to maintain, and would this
disrupt the long term pH level, or is it thought to correct body pH levels?
As for muriatic acid, we have used is several times to strip the old varnishMuratic acid is an impure form of HCL which is what the stomach uses to digest food.
from furniture. After seeing what it does to old varnish, I don't think I
could ever feel comfortable getting it close to food. Maybe there are many
kinds of muriatic acid?
Regarding other acids, Grandma used to mix (apple cider) vinegar and honeyApple cider is acid, but it becomes alkaline in the body. That helps maintain the proper ph of the blood, and proper calcium distribution. You have to look at the ash acidity, not what it is when you eat it.
and take several tablespoons daily, as a folk remedy for arthritis. She did
it for years, and was active into her 90's.
Hubby use CS for brushing the teeth sometimes, and we generally use CS as a
gargle and for cleaning the tongue. He thinks it makes a great difference
with breath. We quit using commercial tooth paste due to the fluoride it
contained. Sometimes use baking soda and water.
Anyone know how much floride is in tooth paste? I always assumed that since you spit it out, there would be virtually none entering the body, but of course that would depend on the original amount in the toothpaste.
