There is peppermint oil listed in the ingredients. It also states "flavor*", then below it has "*natural flavor" but it does not explain. There is a website. maybe you can post the question to the company. www.natures-gate.com

on the bottle label says fresh limon-lime taste and in ingredients it says natural flavors. I would assume that means lemon-lime flavors

ingredients list: sorbitol, hydrated silica, glycerin, water, natural peanut flavor, xanthan gum, acidified calcium sulfate, mushroom extract, benzoic acid, chlorophyll, eucalyptus oil, parsley seed oil. (I have to say I don't know what all of these ingredients are, but I do know that the fewer the ingredients the better the product as a general rule)We've been using this toothpaste for the past 4 years, the reason it's great is because my pup loves the flavor and it cleans her teeth. (I have 2 dogs, one loves the vanilla toothpaste and one loves this one).Hope this helps.

Without posting a bunch of links to research, I would break it down into this: Most regular toothpaste have artificial sweeteners, flouride (which I have read can be harmful over time, and a bunch of other questionable chemical creations. On Guard has simple natural ingredients, with pure essential oils, which kill harmful bacteria, and are even good at fighting illness, through ingestion, topical contact and inhalation. On Guard is also sweetened with xylitol, made from birch trees, which has also proven to inhibit bacteria growth. (By the way, xylitol is also a great sugar substitute, being good for your teeth.)

Yes, love it. It's the only one I've purchased for the past couple years now. And I've tried so many other natural toothpaste brands that were far too chalky for me.

Following is information I've gleened from various googled sites: The main ingredients are (in laymens' terms) calcium carbonate, glycerin, water, aloe barbadensis leaf juice. As another person commented, there are also extracts from cranberry, pomegranate, white tea, grapeseed. The ingredient credited for flavor is Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate (NOT to be confused with Sodium Lauryl Sulphate or SLS). Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate is described to be derived from coconut oil and is known to be a safe, natural, nurturing cleanser...they say it gently removes surface dirt and bacteria, also facilitates foaming. It is a modified fatty acid. From what I can see, this ingredient is also used in high-end shampoos and conditioners. The toothpaste maker claims the following: the product is flouride free, paraben free, sulfate free, no Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfate, no artificial colors, no artificial flavors, no artificial sweeteners, no animal by-products or testing, and is cruelty free and vegan. I am a fussy consumer given my many allergies and sensitivities to many ingredients. I am very happy with this product and will continue to use it unless something comes along that I deem superior. I wish you the best in making your decision as to whether this product is right for you.

Yes. The actual product is less viscous(read runnier) than a standard toothpaste.

Well this is a real answer to this question. "natural flavors" is a term used to describe chemicals produced in a lab that are added to products to make the more appealing to you. They may make a product smell better, taste better,etc. They have no other value and should be avoided since they're all proprietary and you will never know what you're getting. Some of these chemicals are derived from shellfish and other stuff that you may well be allergic too. Now this is a real answer and not a comment.

A cup of brown sugar, a cup of white sugar, yeast, root beer favoring, unknown substance that taste good. I don't think anything about it is natural.
