If you floss every single day, I need you to hear this before it's too late. Take a look at the back of your dental floss packaging. Some of them literally carry warnings about cancer and reproductive harm. What most people have no idea about is that many popular dental flosses are coated in forever chemicals.

That smooth glide style floss that slides effortlessly between your teeth, that texture comes with the same material as Teflon, and that material is a forever chemical. A study from Harvard and the Silent Spring Institute tested 178 women, women who floss with Oral-B Glide and had 25% higher blood levels of PFAS compared to those who use other flosses.

When they tested the floss itself, Oral-B Glide was nearly 25% forever chemical by weight. And you are dragging this between every tooth against your gums twice a day, and your gums are some of the most absorbent tissue in your body. Is it not convenient that the one thing that we're told we need to do every single day

is linked to chemicals that actually cause cancer and hormone disruption? Oral-B has since reformulated to remove it, but many other Glide style flosses still use the same material. Look for flosses with natural wax coatings instead, beeswax or plant-based wax. If you want to learn what is hiding in your everyday products, comment the word YouTube below,
