Can I just brush my teeth with cocoa powder or chocolate?

Good luck with that. The theobromine is an ingredient found in the chocolate (among other things). It is not brown and does not taste like chocolate (sorry). The toothpaste tastes like spearmint and its selling point is that it works at least as good as fluoride toothpaste but does not have the potential toxicity of fluoride.

They do sell 99% theobromine on amazon, so using that might be a better option. Rennou also include other minerals (most likely some form of calcium and phosphate molecules, at the very least) for the remineralization though. I would love to experiment with them and xylitol together.

Pure cocoa powder is extremely bitter. Chocolate is mostly sugar- to cut the bitterness of the cocoa bean. So, yes, you could, but it would be quicker and just as effective (which is to say not-at-all) to eat a candy bar at bedtime.

Good question Karen. I would ask a dentist or call one of the executives at Theodent. Ask for Arman or Dr. Mikimoto.

Yvette - They list cocoa powder and stevia leaf extract as a sweetner, which is basically what I taste in the product. However, I do not know if other flavorants that are NOT listed on the container are used.

The chocolate tastes better on its own. With the vanilla you can put it in a blender and add mix-ins like frozen fruit, peanut butter, flax, etc.

Yes, it does. Unsweetened cocoa is bitter, and Ghirardelli uses sugar as the sweetener. If you prefer honey, maple syrup, or something else as your sweetener, your best bet is to buy plain cocoa powder and mix it up yourself.

Yes Sir, the old fashioned way... milk chocolate and heat and stir constantly. The CocoMotion does it for you. You can use ANY forms of cocoa Mix or Mocoa mixes, etc... add herseys syrup or any other flavors to the milk to tweak your cup the way you want. We LOVE ours. NO ONE makes Cocoa better than this cocomotion. I can make Swiss Miss Amazing just by adding a bit more choc syrup. IT's off the charts insane how amazing this is. FYI I am NOT a paid spokesman. This Product really is this flat out off the charts Awesome!!! Worth the price!

Cocoa is literally powdered cocoa beans. So there is no difference. However, both terms can also refer to sweetened cocoa with sugar and buffers etc so it can be added directly to milk or water for the drink.

Yes! It is tooth powder - you could mix it with toothpaste or put some on top of the toothpaste on your toothbrush and brush away. You can use it by itself. I read on a Dr. Christopher website that people with gum problems make a paste and pack it around their gums and sleep with it that way and it has helped heal gum problems. I did this with a cavity on the gumline and credit this tooth powder with helping it re-calcify. Another smaller cavity was on a tooth surface and that also has re-calcified. I honestly didn't know this was possible, but it is!

Yes you can but do not over do it because you need to add unsweetened coco powder and other things

According to the last paragraph of the Amazon description, most definitely. It is described there as: "1. USE AS AN EDIBLE BUTTER:Cocoa Butter is edible and possesses an extraordinary rich, delicate chocolate aroma. Add a piece of this ecstatic butter to your favorite smoothie, dessert, ice cream or chocolate creation. Because it has not been damaged by heat, our cocoa butter melts easily and blends nicely into any type of recipe."

Just dip a wet toothbrush into the powder and brush your teeth. Rinse really well. Best to do this at night before you go to bed!!

Yes. The product is something between a liquid and a paste wax; about the consistency of tooth paste. It's handy to have a home floor buffer to spread it, and to buff it.

It's not alcohol if that's what you are worried about. It's just what you get when you process the beans. From wikipedia: Chocolate liquor (cocoa liquor) is pure cocoa mass in liquid form. Like the cocoa beans (nibs) from which it is produced, it contains both cocoa solids and cocoa butter in roughly equal proportion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolate_liquor

Clay powder, in my experience, isn't meant for foundation/make up purposes--rather, to cleanse the face of the make up and other dirt/impurities. You can use cocoa powder with it to create a cleansing mask, but I'm very certain it's not to be meant to create make up. If you have oily skin, you can use this with an online recipe for facial masks to help with that as it soaks up excess oils, but it's not meant for all day wear.
