The makers of the popular toothpaste brand RiseWell were sued recently. Why? Well, two moms in the state of California filed suit and claimed that they took their mineral kids toothpaste, sent it off to a lab and it tested positive for PFAS chemicals.

Now, RiseWell markets their toothpaste as PFAS free, as clean, as non toxic, as safe to swallow. These moms are claiming that that is actually not true. And in fact, their toothpaste is full of PFAS. So today, we’re diving into the details and chatting about whether or not this lawsuit holds merit. Spoiler alert: my daughter is still using RiseWell toothpaste as we speak.

With many people pulling their support for RiseWell until this lawsuit is settled, I feel a deep responsibility to speak up. Here’s the thing: I have a close working knowledge of RiseWell and their practices because of my affiliate relationship with them. I would never recommend any company without properly vetting them and asking the hard questions. And RiseWell has been nothing but impressive to me with their testing and transparency.

Unfortunately, small companies are a target for people that are looking for a payday. So listen to the episode to understand why I’m standing behind Risewell as a company!
