Baking Soda Toothpaste

by Kelly

February 2007

• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 2 drops food grade peppermint oil
• enough water to paste

Because I do not like to make this up every time that I brush my teeth, I have purchased a 1/2 cup Rubbermaid container to make it in "bulk". The container has not deteriorated and the lid seems to keep it all in. The container will hold about 20 tsp. Thus, I add 40 drops of oil, and then enough water to paste. Stir well, cap and set by the bathroom sink.

I have used this for about 6 years now, and if I have to use store bought stuff in an emergency, I find them to be terribly sweet.

This was my 2nd order with More than Alive and once again, I am impressed. Your shipping is so fast! I am hooked on the Supermom and Superkid vitamins. I know we are taking supplements that are safe for our bodies and we have fought off illness this winter unlike any year before!

Thank you!
