Guest guest Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 I am very interested in starting Peptizyde and Zyme-Prime with my 4 year old son sometime soon, and I read somewhere that the enzymes shouldn't be mixed with fluoride. My son still swallows his toothpaste when he brushes, so he does get some fluoride from this source. Are there any suggestions as to non-fluoride toothpastes that I could use? He is also on the gf/cf diet and reacts to gluten, so I can't use a toothpaste with flavors that could contain gluten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 We use Herbal Creme de Peppermint Natural Toothpaste by Nature's Gate. We buy it at our local health food stores. Despite the dire warnings from my pediatric dentist about the necessity of fluoride to prevent cavities, ( we avoid fluoride in hygiene and water products) my son is turning 6 this Aug. and he has the prettiest teeth ever. In fact, the discoloration (white spots) on his teeth that he had at age 2, disappeared once we began using this Nature's Gate toothpaste. My son has not yet had a cavity. non-fluoride toothpaste > I am very interested in starting Peptizyde and Zyme-Prime with my 4 > year old son sometime soon, and I read somewhere that the enzymes > shouldn't be mixed with fluoride.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Hi, We use Tom's of maine toothpaste and this has a " flouride-free " version too. You can get it in HFS or even in Safeway stores. regards, sanrithu > We use Herbal Creme de Peppermint Natural Toothpaste by Nature's Gate. We > buy it at our local health food stores.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 We also use Tom's. I just found a liquid version of the flouride- free Toms. The kids prefer the taste of Tom's to things like Crest, etc. My son with Autism is a closet toothpaste eater. This is how I sleep at night without worrying about flouride toxicity. We live in a city that does not fluorinate our water, so I basically avoid fluoride without much problem. I have a supplement from our doctor that I have used a handful of times (normally when my dh thinks about giving it... he is an advocate).
