Have you ever notices that at the bottom of every toothpaste there are some colored stripes. Ever wondered what these colored strips indicate?
The internet is home to lots of useful and valuable information. However, it's also highly susceptible to false information and widely spread, fabricated misinformation.
Usually, we found different color codes at the end or bottom of toothpaste tubes that are red, green, blue, and black. Various claims on the internet and we usually hear that these codes indicate the ingredients used for making of that particular toothpaste.
These are what the color codes are thought to means:-
- Green:- it means that particular toothpaste is made up of totally natural ingredients.
- Blue:- blue indicates that natural and medicinal ingredients used in toothpaste.
- Red:- red means natural ingredients and chemicals used in toothpaste.
- Black:- it reveals that toothpaste is made up of total chemicals. It is thought to be completely harmful to our health.
Often people start reading to check their toothpaste and get unnecessarily worried. Do not pay attention to these things. First of all, everything is a chemical. All-natural things are also a type of chemicals. So, there is no question of chemicals or chemicals.
What are these color marks actually used for?
These colored marks at the end of toothpaste tubes, actually have nothing to do with its ingredients at all. These tiny colored boxes are called eye marks. These are simply made for assisting in its manufacturing process. These colored marks are read by light beam sensors and these colored marks simply all they're there for is to tell the high-speed machinery where the toothpaste tubes have to be cut, folded or sealed. Take a look at food boxes or bags of pasta etc, they also have the same colored marks. These Colors indicate the light sensors installed in tube making machines as to what type or size tubes to make. Only sensors can understand it, not as humans.
The tubes are made in long, hollow strips. Depending upon the intended volume of each one, they are divided into sections that are a certain number of inches long. It's during this process that color mark comes into play. It indicates where the machines should stop and cut the end of each toothpaste tube.
These marks not only green, blue, red, or black; they do come in many other different Colors. These Colors mean exactly the same thing. These different types of colors used for different types of packaging, and with different sensors or machines. If you really want to know your toothpaste's ingredients then just look at the ingredients printed in the box of toothpaste or tube of toothpaste.
If you are worried about what ingredients are in your toothpaste, read the ingredients right on the tube rather getting confused in these codes. If in doubt, choose a toothpaste with an American dental association (ADA) seal of acceptance. The ADA seal means that it's been tested and proven to be safe and effective for your teeth as well as overall health.
So, get worried about your health is a good thing but do not mislead yourself by just reading the content on the internet or by following others. Firstly search yourself deeply and then only believe it.
