Summary

Oral hygiene is important for overall health– that’s a fact. But it’s also a fact that most traditional toothpaste is full of toxic chemicals and packaged in wasteful plastic. It’s time to support personal care product companies committed to clean ingredients and sustainable packaging.

Lindsay McCormick, founder and CEO of Bite, is changing how consumers use and buy toothpaste. She is dedicated to empowering other businesses to commit to similar sustainable business practices. Because, in the end, we can’t solve the plastic problem until we can figure out how to exist without it.

0:00.0	Everybody, welcome to the show. This is Darren O'Lean. This is the Darren O'Lean show. What's
0:09.2	happening? How you doing? I have been working a year and a half on this book. Wow, this has
0:14.9	been an undertaking. Fatal convenience book. You can actually pre-order it right now. This
0:20.3	is about problems we're facing that we don't even know, but there's always a solution.
0:27.8	I always have a solution, but our bodies are getting the crap beat out of us from these
0:33.8	chemicals and these systems that don't have our best interests. So I had to do this book.
0:41.3	My father suffered from chemical sensitivities from things like this, so I want to share
0:47.2	it with you. And ultimately, it's going to liberate you to have more energy because
0:52.6	you're not being stressed 24-7 from all these chemicals. And then listen, so much science
0:59.1	shows that these are dangerous in so many different ways. So that's why I had to do it.
1:03.8	I had to uncork all of this information. I've had up to 25 different volunteers and professional
1:11.6	researchers not just coming from my point of view. Clearly, it has to come from the research
1:17.1	so that we realize the danger of what's going on. So you can pre-order the book and then
1:23.9	share the hell out of that. But the reason I'm also having this podcast today is because
1:29.5	my great friend, Lindsay McCormack, who created bite toothpaste, you probably heard me doing
1:35.5	ads and seeing me on social because I love this company. Lindsay has worked or asked
1:41.6	off, funded it herself out of the freaking living room and then developed products that
1:48.5	are non-toxic and healthy, but then eliminated all this waste of not only unnecessary jels
1:56.5	of toothpaste, but the toothpaste tubes are all plastics. And of course, plastics with
2:02.3	us is never a good idea. And so I've come to love these bites and then she created clean,
2:10.1	reusable, deodorant packaging with great deodorant and really created a perfect utility in the
2:19.8	bathroom. Safe products with safe packaging. Perfect. And Lindsay, again, I've loved to support
