This vitamin-infused toothpaste could give you a boost of energy in the morning when you brush

If you’re a morning coffee drinker, you may enjoy the kick of caffeine. However, you may not love the jitters, the caffeine crash or the stains it can leave on your teeth. Nonetheless, there’s a better way to increase your energy that’s also good for your mouth.

Better & Better’s Energy Toothpaste is infused with vitamin B12 and vitamin D3, which can give you a boost when you brush your teeth. The idea is that these important vitamins and nutrients are absorbed directly through the mouth, gums and tongue through regular brushing. Of course, your teeth are also cleaned and strengthened at the same time.

Vitamin B12 is responsible for forming healthy red blood cells, which deliver oxygen throughout the body. This process turns into energy to keep your body functioning in a healthy way, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Therefore, vitamin B12 could boost your energy, especially if you’re lacking. However, our bodies don’t naturally produce vitamin B12; rather, we get it from food, mostly animal products. If you’re vegan or vegetarian, you may be deficient, and you should talk to your doctor about any concerns.

Vitamin D3, on the other hand, is both a hormone our bodies make and a nutrient you can eat. It’s responsible for helping the body absorb and retain calcium and phosphorous, both crucial for building bone strength, according to Harvard’s School of Publish Health.

So, it makes sense why you may want these vitamins in your daily routine. According to Better & Better, its all-natural toothpaste delivers 80% of your recommended daily dose of D3 and 100% of B12 when you use it morning and night.

Right now, Better & Better’s Energy Toothpaste is sold in a pack of two for $20. It’s also sold as part of an Energy Starter Set for $28.99, and it comes with natural floss, a toothbrush and a timer for brushing.

As far as taste goes, it’s minty and fresh. You wouldn’t even know you’re brushing with vitamins.
