I buy this brand Kal activated charcoal for like 5 or 6 US dollars at Natural Grocers (one of my favorite stores for organic and natural products). You just break open one capsule and you don't use the whole thing. Even a pinch is enough for the job. Be aware this will stain easily and get your sink messy but it's worth the benefits! I mix it with a few drops of peppermint oil or with Toms of Maine toothpaste or you can just do it plain with distilled water.
Fact: Carbon is 100% alkaline and is spinning with electrons making the substance highly electrical. Carbon's negative ionic charge attracts positive ionic charges (of toxins and poisons) causing them to bind and then escorts them out of the body via the eliminative channel of the intestines. - Black Magic article by Foodmatters.com
Lemon and baking soda are also great teeth whiteners and these are super CHEAP to get! One lemon is like 50 cents and get a box of baking soda for like a dollar or two? You saved yourself sooooo much money. It's natural and healthy. Please don't use washing soda or borax instead of baking soda. Baking soda is a weak base and those other ones are super strong and can be severely damaging! 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Brush for about a minute. Make sure not to do it for longer as this will burn away at your enamel.
These are natural astringents and contain vitamin C. The astringent removes surfaces stains as the vitamin C removes plaque. I've seen recipes where you can mix baking soda and strawberries for more of a powerful whitener. I have to try the charcoal and strawberry. That would be interesting... YUM!
All these items are easy to get and they're all affordable. No more stress about buying products that don't work out and they're super bad for your body and health. WHEW good thing I can still drink mah COFFEE! I <3 COFFEE~~
