Colgate Plax Fresh Mint Mouthwash

Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Colgate Plax Fresh Mint Mouthwash scores 30/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Colgate Plax Fresh Mint Mouthwash lists 11 ingredients, starting with Aqua, Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Sorbitol and Poloxamer 407. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 30/100 Colgate Plax Fresh Mint Mouthwash scores worse than most oral care we have scored. A higher-scoring option in oral care is Dr. Bronner's Toothpaste Whitening Spearmint 70% Organic at 90/100.
