Ingredients of Frankincense Fresh Toothpaste

The Frankincense Fresh Toothpaste is 100% natural. It consists of the following ingredients:

Coconut oil(Cocos nucifera) - Cold-pressed coconut oil is a true wonder on earth. Researchers from Ireland's Athlone Institute of Technology call it "the healthiest oil on earth". It contains seven different natural fatty acids: carylic acid, capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmic acid, stearic acid and oleic acid. Lauric acid, according to scientific research, has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory qualities (source).

Baking soda(Sodium bicarbonate) - Baking soda is a mineral that occurs widely in nature. It keeps the mouth alkaline, neutralising the acidity of the bacteria. Humans have used baking soda extensively to brush their teeth for centuries. It cleans thoroughly but is also gentle. It is less abrasive than lime or silica, which are used in most commercial toothpastes. Edgar Cayce. Dr. Keyes, clinical researcher at the National Institute of Dental Research in the US, says he has never found destructive gum disease in people who brush with baking soda.

Soaped olive oil(Olea europeae) - Soaped olive oil, also known as potassium olivate, is nothing other than pure cold-pressed olive oil that has undergone a reaction with caustic soda. During this reaction, the olive oil turns into soap. There is no trace of caustic soda in the final product. It has been completely used up in the production of this natural soap, which does not dry out the mucous membranes. The saponified olive oil provides the foam for this toothpaste and the deep-cleansing effect also between the teeth.

Essential Oils (frankincense, myrrh, peppermint, tea tree, thyme) - This toothpaste is named after the main ingredient in the mixture of essential oils, namely frankincense (botanically: Boswellia carterii). Frankincense is an essential oil, which is distilled from the resins of the frankincense tree. For frankincense the name incense tree or olibanum is also used. In the Middle East, the resin of the tree has been used for thousands of years to treat the mouth. For this purpose, people in Arabic countries simply chew on the resin.

Myrrh is also an essential oil that is distilled from the resin of a tree (botanical: Commiphora myrrh). Myrrh is perhaps one of the oldest botanical medicines in the world. It is mentioned in medical papyruses from ancient Egypt.

The third ingredient in the mix is peppermint essential oil. Peppermint (botanical: Mentha piperita) is known for its fresh taste and ensures long-lasting fresh breath.

Thyme chemotype linalol is a rare chemotype of thyme essential oil. This essential oil is also called sweet thyme. Like other chemotypes, it is distilled from the aerial parts of thyme (botanically: Thymus vulgaris). In most cases, this yields a thyme essential oil of the chemotype thymol or carvacrol. Sometimes, however, under the influence of climate and soil type, a different chemotype may result.

The final ingredient in the essential oil mix is tea tree (botanically: Malaleuca alternifolia). The indigenous people of the Australian continent have been using tea tree essential oil for thousands of years. It is still a very popular natural remedy there. Scientific research shows that it can also be effective in oral care. Tea tree essential oil counteracts a range of bad mouth bacteria (source).

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) - Methylsulfonylmethane is an organically bound sulphur. This natural sulphur is found in all living organisms. Sulphur is currently classified as a macromineral. Macrominerals are minerals that the body needs in larger quantities on a daily basis, such as calcium, magnesium and potassium.

Kaolin clay - Kaolin, also known as china clay, is a clay mineral. This clay mineral was often used in China in the past to make porcelain. It is a very fine type of clay with a high whiteness. The clay mineral is mined in quarries, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom.
