Teeth troubles

I have had trouble with receeding gums for about a year. I have found that being on GAPS has helped but not completely overcome this problem.

Recently there was some discussion on the GAPS list about this topic and the following was suggested.


"Pastured raw butter, Green Pastures fermented cod liver oil, xylitol mints, rinse with water after every meal, oil pulling, non toxic toothpaste or toothsoap for brushing. Also eating raw liver and apply raw bone marrow topically. These are the things I've found are most helpful for remineralizing and keeping teeth healthy. "

Here is the explanation that was posted for "Oil Pulling":

Take 1tablespoon of olive oil, and rinse for 5minutes, in between the front-teeth especially.Then spit out, and rinse your mouth with baking soda + water.

Do not do it longer than 5mins, otherwise the toxins begin to leach back in to your blood vessels, gums and teeth.

Do this on waking in the morning, before breakfast, and before/after bushing your teeth. I do this, after a shower, I take 1 tablespoon and rinse for 4minutes.

You can do it as many times as you want, 3-4times is recommended for tonsillitis, and toxicity crisis.

Listen to your body/subconscious your know how much is enough, plus the colour of the oil changes to a milky white, its full of toxins, so rinse with baking soda to take any remnants out from the mouth/in between teeth/gum.

When the colour change is not as deep, then you have done enough, you can do it 3-4times, 1tables of oil, 4minute rinse, spit out, baking soda rinse, 1 tablespoon oil... etc.
