Green People Organic Fennel Toothpaste 50ml

I have such a sensitive mouth. Lots of foods leave me feeling as though my gums and especially my tongue has had a layer rubbed off, leaving my mouth very painful. Toothpaste is the worst. Using a normal toothpaste makes my tongue so painful it’s hard to eat. I’m practically in tears even as I brush my teeth.It is the fluoride and other chemicals in the product. Through trial and error I found this toothpaste. It’s very gentle and propolis is a very healing ingredient. It tastes lovely, fennel is an aniseed flavour. It doesn’t make lots of foam, chemicals are added to other toothpastes to create foam, but it’s unnecessary to get clean teeth.I always feel I have nice clean teeth after brushing. It feels gently abrasive, but it doesn’t hurt my mouth at all. It’s very important to me that items I buy have not been tested on animals and The Green People are and have always been cruelty free. I wouldn’t use anything else.

I was a bit dubious about ordering this due to other reviews of this product.I was looking for a fluoride free toothpaste and having used this company before decided to give it a go.It isn't like the stuff you buy in supermarkets. It isn't thick either.I picked the fennel flavour because its flavour I love.Have been using it for a month now and I am very happy with this product. Yes it is thinner, the flavour is not strong which I like, its just right. But the biggest thing is having used colgate and others I had terrible trouble with a build up of plaque and despite doing everything it never went away. Since using this it has vanished, I still floss my teeth but they are clean now and my gums feel so much more healthy. So despite the price I will be continuing to use this toothpaste.

I've tried a few different fluoride free toothpastes and this is one of my favourites. My teeth feel clean afterwards (though you do miss the tingle of mint a bit initially) and it doesn't leave a bad aftertaste. I'm not fussy, but those who are might turn their nose up at the flavour - it's very herbal and mildly sweet like honey.So, the fluoride vs no fluoride debate is a big thing... technically fluoride is very bad for you, particularly in large amounts so logic would dictate that smaller amounts over a longer time would be too. However, it does provide some short lived benefits for you orally. The theory is, fluoride strengthens your enamel (short term) to mitigate damage that acid producing bacteria cause. In a lot of toothpastes (or more so with mouthwashes) there are also things which are highly detrimental to bacteria in the mouth (good and bad).In fluoride free toothpastes, the focus is entirely on antibacterial action against bad bacteria. Fennel has many organic compounds which show antibacterial activity (anethole, estragole etc) against a range of pathogenic/decay causing/bad breath causing bacteria in vitro (in the lab). Propolis I'm not so sure about, the properties probably vary a lot depending on where the propolis comes from but it's reported to be antibacterial too (might just be a piggy back on the research behind manuka honey being antibacterial, orally).Humans got along fine without fluoride for long enough, perhaps our diets are what we should really be looking at. Either way, this caused no harm. I use a normal toothpaste and this in rotation to hedge my bets!

Love this toothpaste, i also use the mint but this is such a nice change from the mint. It doesnt clash so badly with anything you eat just after brushing your teeth either. the mint works well, but my teeth do feel cleaner with the fennel flavour will use again for sure

I love the idea of a natural toothpaste and I really wanted to like it, but I find the taste so repulsive. I actually like fennel in principle but somehow in this it doesn't work. I did find my teeth felt clean though so it seems to work well in that regard.

I bought this because I didn't want a fluoride toothpaste (which is all they sell at supermarkets). I like it. Nice flavour. I just think it's a tad too expensive, especially if you have p&p to pay on top of the asking price.

Love this product. Tastes nice , my gums are not so inflamed and great on sensitive teeth. And a 100% natural.

Don't buy this if you don't like the taste of fennel, because it tastes of fennel but has other flavour notes such as honey and herbal tones. Very earthy, if you're into that, you'll love it. Cleans well as far as I can see and definitely not minty if you hate the overpowering flavours of normal toothpastes. However it wasn't for me. Ive tried a charcoal peppermint paste that is not as harsh on the peppermint side and loving that. Maybe it's mind over matter, programmed for years to associate teeth brushing and peppermint, now I can't get away from it!
