Your mouth is dirty.  

Filthy really.  Some “dirt” is healthy (and needed), but most is harmful to your health.  Most toxins enter your body through your gum tissue. 

Bleeding gums are a direct portal of entry into your bloodstream and your heart.  Inflamed gums become “leaky” and allow toxins, including bacteria and heavy metals to enter your bloodstream which is why there is a direct correlation between oral health and heart disease. 

Today, we are going to dive into the reasons you may need a dental detox and how you can get rid of bad breath, cavities, and gum disease for good!

Since 1999, there has been a concerning decline in our testosterone levels. What used to range from a robust 600 to 1500 ng/dl has now dwindled, with 300 ng/dl being considered "normal" – a stark departure from the vitality we once associated with higher levels.

This decrease in testosterone isn't just a numerical statistic; it represents a silent assailant wreaking havoc on various aspects of men's well-being. Symptoms include a plummeting sex drive, erectile dysfunction, uneven facial hair growth, diminished motivation, depression, and persistent fatigue, painting a disconcerting picture.

Numerous factors have been identified as contributors to this decline in testosterone, ranging from lifestyle changes to environmental influences. However, have you ever contemplated the possibility of your toothpaste playing a role in this hormonal shift?

Could fluoride, a common ingredient found in many oral care products, be the unexpected culprit behind the decreasing testosterone levels in men?

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a relatively new ingredient that is taking traditional and holistic dentistry by storm. This powerful ingredient is naturally produced by the body and makes up 97% of the calcium found in your enamel.

So, if you want to have strong, healthy enamel that protects your smile from dental issues such as cavities, sensitive teeth, a yellow appearance, or even gingivitis… it only makes sense to use hydroxyapatite in your daily oral care routine!
