Response from David’s Toothpaste

Hi all!

This was just shared with me by a reader.

Apparently the independent, third-party science Lead Safe Mama, LLC shared (combined with the well-established narrative within the scientific and medical communities that there is no safe level of Lead exposure for humans) is a “Dangerous toothpaste Scam.” Please read Davids Toothpaste’s response, featured in the image above.
