Toothpaste That Contains Milk and Egg Ingredients
« on: September 09, 2008, 17:42:14 pm »
I just got the newsletter from the Kids With Food Allergies and it said something I had no idea about, I used this toothpaste with my daughter, but not my son::

"Gerber Grins and Giggles® Infant Tooth and Gum Cleanser contains milk and egg ingredients; Gerber Grins and Giggles Toddlers Tooth and Gum Cleanser does not."

Here's the ingredient list:

Glycerin , Glycerin , Xylitol , Sorbitol , Propylene Glycol , Pectin , Xanthan Gum , Colloidal Silicon Dioxide , Natural Apple Flavor , Natural Banana Flavor , Calcium Lactate , Lactoferrin - from Milk , Lysozyme - from Egg , Lactoperoxidase - from Milk

I just added the ingredient list.  I never heard of those things, so I'm not really sure if it would cause a bad reaction, but I am curious now.

Very interesting.  I would have never ever thought to read ingredients on toothpaste.
