The Health Benefits of Brushing Your Teeth With Baking Soda

     A couple weeks back, we featured a post warning against the dangers of fluoride. We also recommended in that post to use toothpaste that is fluoride free, to prevent many health issues associated with fluoride use. Well an awesome alternative to traditional toothpaste is using baking soda to clean and whiten your teeth. Below are some great benefits to brushing your teeth with baking soda.

Whitening/Stain Removal-When you use baking soda on your teeth, the mixture of the soda and your saliva activate the free radicals, that interact with the stain on the teeth enamel and remove the yellow/brown stains on your teeth. It will make your teeth appear brighter and whiter, because it eliminates the discoloration.
Removes Plaque-Plaque builds up in your both, can cause your teeth to decay you to have toxic breath. But using baking soda as a toothpaste helps to neutralize acidic bacterial waste that cause plaque and tooth decay.
Absents of Fluoride-As we said before
it is best to eliminate the use of fluoride
from your lifestyle. Baking soda is
completely free of fluoride, and is therefore healthier.
Low Cost/Larger Quantity- A lot of
the whitening and natural toothpastes on the
market are very expensive, but baking soda is
pretty inexpensive and will last you a long time.


Fluoride has many health risks associated with its use including but not limited to Thyroid Gland problems, Fertility Problems, Bone Disease, and Poisoning Resulting in Death. Therefore it is important to choose healthy and natural alternatives for your whole family. Baking Soda is one of those healthy alternatives, and here at I Feel Great Today, we recommend it!!
