🚨I get asked a lot of questions about hydroxyapatite so thought I would address a few of them here.
✨What is Hydroxyapatite?
It is a form of calcium found only in cow bones. There is no vegan form of it and if someone tells you there is, it's either synthetic or they are lying.
✨We only use microcrystalline hydroxyapatite in our tooth powder. There is limited, but enough to raise valid concerns, research that strongly suggests the smaller particle size of nano-hydroxyapatite may cross the blood brain barrier and have similar effects as flouride on our brains which is exactly what many of us want to avoid. Nearly all of the hydroxyapatite products hitting the market all of a sudden are nano because it is much cheaper to source. We choose to stay on the safe side.
✨We use only the larger particle size microcrystalline hydroxyapatite from grass fed cows in New Zealand. Could we use a cheaper form and increase our profit margin? Absolutely. But I refuse to compromise on quality on something that may potentially be harmful in the long run. Before jumping on the band wagon, make sure you know what you're getting!
✨This is not to convince you to buy ours. There is at least one other company that uses microcrystalline as well. This is an effort to stay transparent and honest. And always research what you are getting.
✨Oral health has become a passion of mine. It was born out of need in my own family. I see my clients as I do my family. They deserve the very best ingredients. ❤️
