She doesn't get into Dr D'Adamo's work on blood type and lectins. We are unlikely to be as sensitive to all lectins equally. Some will be a problem but it varies based on the surface markers of the blood type proteins. I avoid certain foods based on his work with literally testing foods with different blood types. It is an individualized issue rather than "All lectins are bad" as Dr Tenpenny implied.

Acidification of the mouth wouldn't be from saliva, it being routinely only slightly so.

If the entire body is a little too acidic, then the saliva will be also. And my impression is that during eating, saliva may change a little to become more acidic, but I would have to factcheck that impression.

I’m fortunate to have visited Dr. Dan Royal in the 90’s. An exceptional holistic homeopath doctor in Las Vegas he taught me much of what you discuss here. Thank you for posting this information l, I’m going to buy the book. ✨🤗

Very welcome! I really think it is worth it, based on the course.

I contacted a biological dentist once and the fee to repair my teeth was somewhere near $100,000! I found him in an ad on Facebook. And I wrote him. I’m not sure who spends that type of money. But the other option is to lose your teeth. The regular Dennis cost me $30,000 to repair the teeth .

Her info about old Wisdom tooth removal leaving infection concerned me. I had four down and one did get infected, I had to go back for meds. She recommended asking for a Dental CT scan as it can show hollow spots in the jaw there which would indicate a pocket of infection within the bone.

Interesting! Thank you! I had my wisdom until my 40s. I'd wished I'd taken care of my teeth when I was young. 🦷

Excellent article and links .. my hygienist had told us to wait 15 min before brushing or it can't rinse with water first, so easy a thing yet so often forget! Will pay more attention to this from now on!

Curious what do you mean old wisdom teeth removed? When one is older or when it was done decades ago?

I'm holding on to mine for now but may one day need to remove too

Oral surgeon here gives prophalatic antibiotics upon removal especially when I had asked reading many folk got heart infection and in icu from mere teeth extraction!

Saw few warnings of moms on fb about their kids in icu post wisdom teeth extraction and insisted we get antibiotics with extraction and not wait if complications arise later.. too late then

I meant, prior/previously done wisdom tooth removal - old left over issues decades later. I had mine removed in college by a dental school. Be the student example and pay a lot less.

A new technique that more completely sterilizes the excavated area was mentioned - ozone I think - totally flood the mouth and excavated tooth with ozone and that totally sterilizes the wound. Prevents the lingering infection risk that can be within a healed over bony area.
