RECALL WARNING! Avoid Any Toothpaste Imported From China Conataining Harmful Chemicals!
Fitchburg MA and Leominster MA Daily News.- Another toothpaste recall report released on June 1st, 2007, is another excellent article you should read, because looks like the toothpaste that came from China has really poisonous chemicals that can harm any ones life...
China imported this harmful toothpaste to several countries including U.S. and Panama... This looks like some kind of attack some web users said at online groups or forums. But, the FDA already stop all toothpaste imports that comes from China. The recall base on their imports has put many countries on state of alarm, and they think that stopping all toothpaste from this country will help protect our people, and it will not be open until all investigations are complete.
From the report:
"FDA is not aware of any U.S. reports of poisonings from toothpaste containing DEG. However, the agency is concerned about potential risks from chronic exposure to DEG and exposure to DEG in certain populations, such as children and individuals with kidney or liver disease. DEG in toothpaste has a low but meaningful risk of toxicity and injury to these populations. Toothpaste is not intended to be swallowed, but FDA is concerned about unintentional swallowing or ingestion of toothpaste containing DEG.
FDA has identified the following brands of toothpaste from China that contain DEG and are included in the import alert: Cooldent Fluoride; Cooldent Spearmint; Cooldent ICE; Dr. Cool, Everfresh Toothpaste; Superdent Toothpaste; Clean Rite Toothpaste; Oralmax Extreme; Oral Bright Fresh Spearmint Flavor; Bright Max Peppermint Flavor; ShiR Fresh Mint Fluoride Paste; DentaPro; DentaKleen; and DentaKleen Junior. Manufacturers of these products are: Goldcredit International Enterprises Limited; Goldcredit International Trading Company Limited; and Suzhou City Jinmao Daily Chemicals Company Limited. The products typically are sold at low-cost, “bargain” retail outlets."
The FDA recommends to check all toothpaste with the label "Made In China" to avoid the use of this poisonous product. If you find any toothpaste with such a label FDA says to trow away the product.
So, what's the poison that activated the recall alarm?
The name of this chemical is "diethylene glycol" or known as "diglycol"
Toothpaste recalls are getting a little out of hand don't you think..?
