White or Wrong



Toothpaste cancer alert By Mark Prigg Science Correspondent And Rebecca Lawrence, Evening Standard 15 April 2005
Dozens of toothpaste sold at supermarkets are at the centre of a cancer alert today.
Anti-bacterial cleaning products, including dishwashing liquid and handwash, are also affected.
Researchers have discovered that triclosan, a chemical in the products, can react with water to produce chloroform gas. If inhaled in large enough quantities, chloroform can cause depression, liver problems and, in some cases, cancer.

And you wonder why I don't brush my teeth. This also explains why 3 out of 4 dentists chew "high dent" an anti depressant gum prescribed by their psychiatrist. Cancer or White teeth, depression, or pearly off-whites. I never liked dentist or toothpaste, now I have a reason why.

In a related start second graders in Desmoins Iowa started an "I told you so" riot at the Wilson Central elementary School. Vandalizing school property with tubes of toothpaste, squirting "Crest Kills" and "Cancer is spelled Colgate"

So put your fingers and your brushes away and start saving for denchersrs because toothpaste is out and vineers are in.

Hmm...so the answer is not to brush but to just floss instead? Because studies also show that flossing prevents cancer (thus, by default, not flossing causes cancer). Regardless, I think I'd rather risk the cancer than have perpetually bad breath.

Nice picture. I'm guessing that those are Danica and Ryan's hands.
