elmex Advanced Protection Anti-Caries Professional

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

elmex Advanced Protection Anti-Caries Professional scores 35/100 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.

elmex Advanced Protection Anti-Caries Professional lists 16 ingredients, starting with Calcium Carbonate, Aqua, Glycerin, Xylitol and Hydrated Silica. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 35/100 elmex Advanced Protection Anti-Caries Professional scores worse than most toothpaste we have scored. A higher-scoring option in toothpaste is Dr. Bronner's Toothpaste Whitening Spearmint 70% Organic at 90/100.
