Even natural toothpastes have ingredients that can be toxic to humans, animals, or the environment; including SLS, glycerin, titanium dioxide, limonene, and sodium lauryl sulfate. Also, the tubes are not recyclable. Instead, try mixing coconut oil and a little baking soda. Use the same recipe to make deodorant. Or you can buy toothpaste tabs that come in glass jars or paper bags.
