Check your toothpaste and cleaning products now!

We all use toothpaste and have chemicals around the house for cleaning dishes and whatever else.

Some of these will contain a chemical called Triclosan.

Reports have surfaced today that Triclosan may be harmful for your family and you.

Check the labels of your toothpaste and the cleaning agents that you may have in the home.

Ask your doctor if you should switch to a substitute without Triclosan.

Ask the manufacturer to let you know, in case you do not find reassurance on the toothpaste or cleaning product label, about whether any of them contain Triclosan.

Post here or email drsbanerji@gmail.com if you need help to find a substitute toothpaste or cleaning agent that does not contain Triclosan, or if you would like more information.
