success story at the dental office!

[Guest guest]

Here's a success story for anyone wondering if all this really does

work.

I had my teeth cleaned today. I have been very lax about flossing or

using my waterpik since my last cleaning because I wanted to see

what would happen. I've flossed maybe once a week for the past 4

months and use the waterpik once every other week.

My dentist told me my gums were excellent and whatever I was doing

to keep it up. The few deep pockets I had in some gums have

completely disappeared and my teeth are all in the normal range.

Since I'm 50 with a history of gum problems he was very pleased.

(and he understand some of what I'm doing dietwise but hasn't quite

got it all yet...I'm working on him)

I got into Weston Price because my teeth were essentially rotting

despite all the excellent care I gave them. I flossed regularly,

used a waterpik, brushed after meals, etc. but still got cavities

and inflamed, receding gums. They always bleed no matter what I did.

This was about 4-5 years ago on a mostly veg diet.

I stumbled across WPF info trying to address this before I lost my

teeth!

This has been by far the best visit yet especially as I purposely

didn't try to take extra care of my teeth.

I've also had more Ca and CLO over the past few months than ever

before and am attributing some of this to that.

what

much CLO

---> The Ca is coming from bone meal tabs, raw goat dairy, and bone

broths. The bone meal is MCHC (calcium hydroxyapatite) 1,000 mg and

however much Ca is in 2 cups of raw goat milk. I also consume bone

broths made from bones that have been left in an apple cider

vinegar/water solution for 24-48 hours then simmered for up to 24. I

have at least 1 cup every day. And I usually have some raw cheese

and at times small fish with bones.

The CLO is high vit and I started using 3 Tbsp. Plus I use butter

oil. I've now reduced that to 1-2 TBSp depending on the stress I'm

under. Right now I'm under a fair amount as I teach high school in a

failing inner city school. We're falling under all the no child left

behind rigamarole of time wasting junk.

I'm guessing that even though my diet has been very good over the

past two years, my vit A must have been low owing to the quick

success I've seen by upping it. Sally Fallon mentioned on the

chapter leaders site that stress can quickly use it up. I'm guessing

that my job last year combined with the beginning of menopause could

have been the cause of depletion. But who knows ...this stuff is way

complicated. All I know is I'm having phenomenal success right now

and nothing else has worked this well for me.

By Ca do you mean calcium? I forwarded your post to my husband bc he always

has major gum problems. Maybe he'll look at what i'm doing as something more

than " rotting food " as he calls it.
