Before modern dentistry and the advent of the toothbrush, mankind relied on nature for oral care. The oldest recorded practice is use of the “Kayu Sugi,” or “chewing stick,” from the Salvadora persica tree (known in some regions as the Peelu tree). Many people believe this “stick” to be the world’s first toothbrush.

People still use Kayu Sugi today in parts of India and the Middle East, not because they don’t have access to more modern equipment, but because this ancient dentifrice works. Peelu sticks contain gentle yet effective fibers that softly scrub teeth clean – unlike modern toothpastes, which use abrasive mineral particles. Peelu sticks also contain natural chlorine compounds, sulfur compounds, and alkaloid-rich resins that naturally combat the harmful forces which wage war in our mouths.*

Despite its long history, Peelu tree branches have thus far only been used in the form of a chewing stick. The Peelu Company, for the first time, converted its remarkable qualities into a toothpaste, tooth powder, liquid extract, and a dental chewing gum.

The researchers discovered a number of naturally occurring qualities in the Peelu tree, including:

• A natural chlorine which whitens and removes tartar and stains (tartar is the yellow material on the teeth, chiefly calcium phosphate)*
• Tannic acid and vitamin C, both beneficial for healthy gums*
• Sulfur, which helps keep the mouth clean*

There is another very important difference that sets Peelu apart from all other toothpastes and dentifrices: Peelu contains no harsh, gritty abrasives. Many other toothpastes on the market contain calcium carbonate (chalk), silicon (sand), or dicalcium phosphate (bone).

While these abrasives are added to increase the cleansing action, in reality they are detrimental to the healthy state of the teeth and gums, as they can damage the tooth enamel (a thin layer that covers the tooth above the gum line) and irritate the gums. The layer under the enamel, called dentin, is yellowish in color. Brushing with an abrasive causes wear and subsequent erosion over the years. Those individuals who brush with abrasive toothpaste in an attempt to whiten their teeth are actually causing them to be more yellow by thinning the enamel layer.*

Confirming the science research and the uniqueness of Peelu, the U.S. Patent Office granted a patent on April 23, 1991 for Peelu to be the ONLY dental care product that uses a plant fiber as its cleansing agent. These fibers can be found in Peelu Toothpaste, Peelu Tooth Fibers, Peelu Extract, and Peelu Chewing Gum. In short, nothing works like Peelu!

Travelers to the Middle East and Indian Subcontinent often remark on the many bright, white smiles to be seen. Yet, consumption of tobacco products and sweet junk foods is just about as widespread there as here, and few natives enjoy sophisticated dental care. Their secret is Peelu, the so-called toothbrush stick from the Arak tree (Salvadora persica). References to Peelu date back 1,100 years, to the legendary Muwashsha Arabian medical text. Today, millions of Middle Easterners and South Asians brush their teeth with the frayed end of a Peelu stick, and enjoy excellent dental health—despite a taste for sweet foods and a relative lack of professional dental care.*

What is so special about Peelu? First, it is packed with soft fibers that clean teeth as effectively but more gently than the abrasives in regular toothpastes which consist of fine but hard particles of various minerals. Second, Peelu contains natural chlorine compounds that may whiten teeth. These benefits may be caused by the synergistic action of Peelu's main constituents, which include large amounts of chlorine, an alkaloid-rich resin, vitamin C, and a variety of antimicrobial sulfur compounds. These, as well as tiny micro-fibers, are extracted from Peelu sticks and put into Peelu squares, along with sorbitol and maltitol (non-caloric, non-toxic sweet alcohols that do notfeed cavity-causing bacteria).*

In contrast, many other gums contain a chemist's brew of synthetic and artificial ingredients. Some contain hydrogenated glucose (sugar) syrup, artificial flavors, the suspected carcinogen BHT, and aspartame—the problematic synthetic sweetener that is dangerous to phenylketonurics and has produced more complaints to the FDA than any additive in history.*

Clean your teeth the natural way! Peelu Toothpaste provides safe, effective dental care with a 100% natural, state-of-the-art formula. Most toothpastes and polishes contain harsh, gritty abrasives like sand (silica), chalk (calcium carbonate), or animal bone (dicalcium phosphate), all of which can irritate gums and damage teeth by thinning the enamel layer. This can cause teeth to yellow and be more sensitive to heat and cold. Peelu Toothpaste uses the soft fibers of the peelu plant to bring you a gentle, nonabrasive toothpaste that works naturally to clean and brighten your teeth. Unlike most other brands, Peelu Toothpaste is sugar-free, contains no artificial sweeteners or preservatives, and uses only natural flavorings. Discover for yourself the advantages of natural dental care with Peelu Toothpaste.*
