Method Would eating toothpaste kill me?

[WallTermite]

Toothpaste.

 

[AngelTear]

Toothpaste.

 

[sanctionedusage]

like 10 tubes

like 10 tubes

Yeah, if the vomit chokes you but that's probably it

 

[EternalSkies]

I tried eating 5grams. My throat started burning and swollen very unpleasant. I was planning to eat a whole tube as it is said one kills you by converting to acid and causing bleeding in stomach. Couldn't eat it

 

[sanctionedusage]

Yeah, if the vomit chokes you but that's probably it

32-64mg sodium fluoride per kg of body weight to kill you

avg 1mg sodium fluoride per 1g toothpaste

96mg sodium fluroide per 3.4oz tube of toothpaste

for a 50kg person itd be 16-32 3.4oz tubes of toothpaste


someone check my math lol

Fluoride in dental products: safety considerations - PubMed

This review summarizes the nature of acute fluoride toxicity, its time-course, and the fluoride doses that are involved. The generally accepted "certainly lethal dose" range for 70 kg adults, i.e., from 5 to 10 g of sodium fluoride or from 32 to 64 mg fluoride/kg, is discussed. Based on recent...

I feel like it probably would make you sick... and while too much of anything can be harmful, I feel like you ought to get sick in a vomiting kind of way before major damage would happen. People swallow some amount of toothpaste all the time without any major issues that I'm aware of... Mouthwash is a different matter, especially with alcohol in it.

 

[eggsausagerice]

like 10 tubes

is that feasible? lol

 

[sanctionedusage]

is that feasible? lol

its absorbed quickly but i still think youd puke too much and be unable to finish them

and 10 tubes wouldnt be enough apparently

 

[noheart]

Prolly wake up in the psych ward with fresh breath.

 

[WhatCouldHaveBeen32]

Wait...you're not supposed to eat them?

Like when you brush your teeth, you put it in a spoon and then you start chewing the toothpaste in your mouth and you wash your teeth with a brush then with cold water you clear your mouth and then drink the toothpaste water, right? RIGHT??
(I'm going to sleep so I'm gonna announce that I am joking, I'm not doing this ANYMORE, I used to do it until I was like 7-8 . to clarify because I felt like it's not clear enough, my parents caught up and supervized me most of the time but when they wouldn't or when they'd forget, I'd do it and drink the toothpaste water from my mouth lol. No I don't do this anymore, yes it made my tummy hurt, no I have no fucking clue why I liked it but I did, it was probably the strawberry toothpaste made for 0-1 year olds that I was crying for and that I demanded or else I wouldn't wash my teeth so it probably wasn't detrimental to my health)

You'd need around 20 to 25 full tubes but this a extremely dumb and you'll likely just get extremely sick instead of dying.

I had a patient try this when I was working in the er and they just ended up having to get their stomach pumped and sent to the psych ward.

gtfo

 

[TimingOut]

What a site !

 

[Morte]

Maybe if you fast for 72 hours and eat 10 try pastes and drink mouthwash, maybe you will die

 

[overthrone]

nah. buying that much toothpaste would be a hassle, and you probably wouldn't die, would most likely end up with a bad stomachache and shitting your brains out

 

[ginko0]

Nah. I think you'd just have white poop like Shrek here.

I now wonder if there's a dentist serial killer who gets away with his crime by saying his victims merely had OCD about their dental hygyene and ODed.

 

[kuroshimi]

I think it's not gonna work?

 

[OnMyLast Legs]

Not attempting this method

 

[ForeverSubhuman]

itd be very hard

 

[Forveleth]

My toothpaste does not even have fluoride in it...

Seriously, if something you are supposed to put in your mouth was that deadly, we would not be able to purchase giant tubes of it.

 

[Liebestod]

At that point you might as well just eat your own shit.

 

[Ajaq]

I think no? Maybe if you could extract the floride out of it and eat just that but ive no clue how one would go about that.

Not so fast... You can drown yourself by drinking too much water or milk... and those are considered very healthy and you can probably get all the water you'd need for free. I agree it's going to be difficult with toothpaste... but assuming it's safe just because it is easy to get is not the reason.

At that point you might as well just eat your own shit.

Well... I mean, anything in your shit is something you already ate. As unpalatable as it is to think about... if you ate your fresh shit, you'd just be refiltering the stuff your body already filtered... so... you might vomit... but it isn't likely to kill you.

Drowning is when someone suffocates from liquid meaning you need to inhale it, not drink it.

no kidding, if I really get desperate I'll consider this. Imagine someone actually tries and succeeds and now we have thread called 'toothpaste method discussion' .

You should look up "water intoxication" and see it often described as drowning from the inside.
