There comes a time in life when the dentist tells you that you have 4 new cavities and you walk away thinking "How did this happen to me?". When I was 100% raw vegan from 2003 to 2010 my oral health took a real hit. I think it took me a long time to come back from what that did to my mineral reserves. Most recovering vegans have similar stories to mine. For 7 years I ate nothing but uncooked plants. I'd go to the dentist and he'd tell me I have 5 cavities. I couldn't figure out why. The last time I went to my dentist I vowed to never ever get a cavity again. I'm at the point now where I'm determined to never get cavities ever again. I'm all about prevention now. In 2010 Dr. Stuart Nunnally removed 6 mercury amalgam fillings that were slowly poisoning me. The next time I went to their office, they removed 2 root canals and fixed for cavitations I had when I had my wisdom teeth removed in 2000 before I knew better. You can listen to one of our radio shows with him Dr. Nunnally here. My mouth was an absolute mess. I'm doing much better now and I want to share with you how to prevent cavities and more specifically what I'm doing these days to create a healthy oral microbiome. What Are Cavities Everybody knows what cavities are but in case you don't, essentially they're known as dental caries. They're a form of tooth decay that occurs when acids produced by bacteria in the mouth break down the hard outer layer of the tooth, called enamel. This process typically results from eating sugary foods, which feed the bacteria, leading to the formation of plaque that sticks to your teeth and create acids that erode your tooth structure. Foods To Avoid This is a big one because in my research, the foods that cause cavities are those that either... * Stick to your teeth (mentioned above) * Alter serum phosphorous levels Most of the time the same foods that stick to your teeth, also alter your serum phosphorus levels. So let's talk about that. Here's a quote by the late great Dr. Hal Huggins about phosphorus and cavities.... "..in the blood chemistry, there are things that are not really terribly new. But they’re certainly not taught in dental schools, even the dental school where it was discovered. But if you have looking at the serum phosphorus level, for instance, if the serum phosphorus level is below 3.5, you have dental decay. "If it is above 3.5, you don’t have dental decay. Well, what makes that happen? If you’re eating the right amount of protein in your diet, the serum phosphorus will be above 3.5. If you're eating less protein than you need,
