Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Colgate Plax Softmint Mouthwash scores 15/100 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 Softmint Mouthwash lists 13 ingredients, starting with Water, Sorbitol, Alcohol (8.6%), Tetrasodium Pyrophosphate and Sodium Benzoate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Colgate Plax Softmint Mouthwash scores worse than most mouthwash we have scored. A higher-scoring option in mouthwash is GuruNanda Sesame Mint Oil Pulling Mouthwash at 100/100.
