RE: Natural & Practical Alternatives to the toxic Chemicals of Modern Dental Hygiene Products and Practices
@gardenofeden Wonderful post! Nature has everything we need, not man's overly intellectualized chemical alternatives. Thank you for providing awareness. May I make a quick opinion...you state, "An alkaline diet low in carbohydrates starves the bacteria that cause tooth decay." I would argue we want a diet high in simple sugars, specifically fructose, and low in complex carbs, like thick/agglomerating/acidic complex carbs :) Fruit sugars have alkalined my mouth tissues and eliminated plague build up naturally. Humans, through media, are now afraid of sugar, but they are missing the point that we want the simple natural sugars, fructose/glucose, that power our brians and electrify our senses. Thank you
I agree nature has solutions and life really can be so easy!
Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion, and certainly not every body is exactly the same. What works for one person may not work for another. We're definitely seeing a wide variance in what people prefer for carbohydrate consumption nowadays.
However, refined carbohydrates are not the same as simple carbohydrates, or the natural sugars found in whole foods. Refined carbohydrates are processed and manufactured from some food or chemical source, and they are poorer in nutrient quality than true simple or natural sugars.
Thank you for sharing :)
