Thank you, Srinath! I have heard that the glycerin in toothpaste can prevent your teeth from mineralizing and that the glycerin can coat your teeth through several washes. I have thought about toothpaste alternatives and would like to go off toothpaste for good. What brand of tooth powder do you use? Thank you for sharing your experience!
Also, a midday update: I'm feeling rather good. I get a little lightheaded when standing after laying down, but other than that no hunger pangs or other worries.
