TOOTHPOWDER AND HOW TO MAKE IT WITH NO ADDED CHEMICALS!

Oh.. well here I am again and with one of the best recipes I am going to ever give you!

It is a recipe from a wonderful book called 'The Fragrant Pharmacy', this book, which was given to her many many years ago by Angela Flanders, was written by the marvellous woman who saved mama from going blind.

Valerie Ann Worwood is a consultant clinical aromatherapist with a doctorate in complementary medicine and the author of eight books.

She has now retired from doing treatments but still lectures and works on the clinical research side of aromatherapy.

Ingredients:

1 teaspoon of raw Sea Salt.
2 teaspoons of Bicarbonate of Soda.
1 tablespoon of dried Orange peel reduced to powder. 
You can buy this powder in France, she buys dried Orange peel from a local middle eastern food shop.
2 teaspoons of dried Sage.
5 drops of essential oil of Lemon.
5 drops of essential oil of Peppermint.
1 drop of tuncture of Myhrr.

You will need a glass jar, she uses an old brown jar with a screw lid.

Method:

Put the dry ingredients into a food processor or a mortar and grind them until they are mixed to a fine powder.
Put half of the powder into a glass jar and add 2 drops of each of the essential oils and stir well.
Then add the remaining powder and repeat with another 2 drops of the essential oils, stir well.
Stir both lots together and add the final drop of essential oil and the drop of Myhrr and stir well.

You can turn it into a paste by adding virgin organic coconut oil but she doesn't, she keeps it as a powder and has a little teaspoon that lives in the same mug as her toothbrush.

She takes a little out on the teaspoon and dips a wet toothbrush into it.  

Shiny clean teeth with no horrid chemicals. The last thing she does is to tip a couple of drops of tincture of Myhrr onto her brush and brushes the roof of her mouth, tongue, gums and then, she swallows.

Job done.

Tincture of Myhrr is a wondrous thing, besides being incredibly good for you, it is very, very old.
Remember the three Wise Kings gifts? One of them was Myhrr.

Now off you go and have a look at the ingredients of your toothpaste and we bet you'll be horrified at what's in it.

GeeGee Parrot.
