And, I'll be sure to keep xylitol away from the kitties! Love the idea that it can actually HELP decay! I'd really like to know that doses... because I use so much, but it's getting smaller... Thanks!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07608707112604626787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1235354475217988529.post-79636937721758020282015-05-02T00:31:50.228-04:002015-05-02T00:31:50.228-04:00Forgot to mention...

Not only does it not cause tooth decay, studies have been shown that use of it at a certain level (I forget the exact dosing) daily for two years can actually eradicate the decay causing bacteria from your mouth for a period of time. It's been a while since I've read the study so I don't remember the details, but still a pretty cool concept.ErraticEllehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08807468379577508119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1235354475217988529.post-58994057310195003592015-05-02T00:27:18.190-04:002015-05-02T00:27:18.190-04:00This post was super helpful for me!

I'm going to have to try them with some of my dry mouth sufferers. The only precaution I give to xylitol users is to keep it away from pets. Xylitol is poisonous to them...dogs in particular...so you don't want to leave a container or bag of xylitol containing products laying around. Great pick for letter X!!! <a href="http://erraticprojectjunkie.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Elle @ Erratic Project Junkie</a>ErraticEllehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08807468379577508119noreply@blogger.com
