Formula to get rid of plaque, tartar




Vitamin C

This involves vitamin C. Now we have the vitamin C complex. That in

nature comes with a lot of different things.

One being a part of the vitamin C complex called ascorbic acid. And many

times you'll see vitamin C is ascorbic acid, but it's really not it's just a part of the vitamin C complex. However, you can use ascorbic acid in helping get rid of plaque.


Background on vitamin C in relationship to oral health

 Background on vitamin C in relationship to oral health. Now you've probably heard of scurvy, which is a severe vitamin C deficiency and all the different effects that can be created. Sailors at one time developed scurvy and they had a lot of problems because they basically were lacking any food with vitamin C. And then over time they found that, you can give a sailor limes, lemons, onions even potatoes to supply the vitamin C and that seemed to cure skirting.

So what is it about this vitamin that is so important . If you don't have enough vitamin C you cannot make collagen. Vitamin C is essential to make collagen and collagen that is present in your skin, in your bone tissue, including your teeth, in your ligaments, in your tendons, in your muscles in your joints, in all of your arteries, including the capillaries. So, when you don't have enough vitamin C, (for example in your capillaries), you get blood going through the capillary wall creating bleeding, and so one of the big indicators to know that your vitamin C deficient is when you get bleeding gums.




Now you probably already know that sugar is bad for your teeth and gums and so the sugar then feeds the bacteria, that develop acids, that cause cavities inflamed gum tissue and plaque and Tartar.

Tartar

So what actually is tartar, tartar is biofilms.

what's a biofilm, biofilms are colonies of microbes that have band together and they develop these calcium igloos or shelters to hide from your immune system. So in nature like 90 to 95 percent of all these bacterias start to form biofilms, in fact if you were to walk through a little stream for example, you notice if you step on a rock it's very slippery there is slime that is the formation of biofilms.

So in nature one of the defense mechanisms that these microbes use is these kind of  a protective shell. And so biofilms form tartar in your teeth, they form the plaquing in your arteries, also biofilms form these calcium deposits in your joints, so they are around us everywhere.




Vitamin C and its function in your body

Without vitamin C you actually get really bad breath. Because, you have this excessive growth of bacteria. Vitamin C suppresses pathogens including viruses, bacteria, yeast, fungus, mold and  biofilms.  

Vitamin C also helps to work as an antihistamine. So in the body when you have histamines, it's related to allergies and this is why vitamin C is good to take is to reduce the sneezing, the runny nose and the mucus production. So

vitamin C involved an essential in generating and making connective tissue and collagen.

Vitamin C also have the tendency to make active folate, so in the pre-inactive form of folic acid that converts into folate vitamin C is necessary. Vitamin C is also a necessary in converting cholesterol into bile salts, in converting tryptophan into serotonin, in converting dopamine into epinephrine.

So there's a lot of neurotransmitter type functions that vitamin C is involved with. Also making adrenal hormone steroids like cortisol you need Vitamin C. Vitamin C is important in fighting off an infection and decreasing the duration of how long you get an infection, and also increasing your resistance to infection.

When you're low in vitamin C you're vulnerable to getting biofilms. 




So another interesting point about this is that, we know vitamin C saved the sailors, but also there's another problem related to Sailors, which is actually interesting. The ships developing these things called (Barnacles). And these Barnacles, at the bottom of the ship would add tremendous amounts of weight and resistance when traveling through the sea. 




And these Barnacles are basically collections of organisms like even like clams and lobster and even smaller organisms with this calcium shell. If you have a ship with these Barnacles. You're going to primarily add like a third more fuel, because of the weight and so there's many problems and the name that they set to Barnacles would be called Marine following. And so they've tried a lot of things to get rid of these growth of these biofilms. They try different paints with chemicals, and of course all this is very toxic, but in 1990 this guy who was a sailor had this brilliant idea why I was eating a sandwich with he had this Red Hot Chili Peppers in it. And he had this idea that he said I wonder if these Chili Peppers would kill off these Barnacles. Well he found out that they did effectively kill off these microorganisms. So he developed a kind of paint using Chili Peppers. And it worked great and there's one thing about Chili Peppers. Chili Peppers not only have certain active compounds, that are going to kill biofilms but Chili Peppers are very high in vitamin C. And even one of the consequence is that, vitamin C turns into is hydrogen peroxide which is another anti-biofilm chemical. In fact your body even makes hydrogen peroxide to protect against too many biofilms which is another interesting point.




Formula

A formula that you can use when you're brushing your teeth to help reduce plaque tartar. The first ingredient to this  formula would be to take one fourth of a teaspoon of baking soda, and dissolve it in a half a cup of  warm water, dissolve it completely and then add a fourth of a teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide three percent, because hydrogen peroxide is a great mouthwash and a very powerful anti-biofilm compound.  Last ingredient is a fourth of a teaspoon of non-GMO ascorbic acid.




 How to apply

Now all you're going to be doing is you're going to be brushing your teeth with this, once a day and you're going to spit out this material. And you're probably going to have one of the most powerful anti-biofilm compounds around, but recommendation is brushing your teeth all around inside and outside and then spitting it out and rinsing out your mouth. Now you can also add mints, peppermint, clove as a great essential oil to help as well. And so it doesn't taste so bad and it can leave your breath smelling a little bit better.

But on top of that just to understand what vitamin c does and the effects of vitamin C deficiency for oral health is huge.

Things that are high in Vitamin C

•You should be consuming things that are high in vitamin C on a regular basis.




And that would include several foods  peppers both red peppers, hot peppers, mild peppers, green peppers, green vegetables pretty much. All the green vegetables are low with vitamin C.

•The next thing would be limes and lemons in your diet. Realize that, if you're getting lemon juice or a lime juice in a glass or some container it's been pasteurized and vitamin C is very sensitive to oxygen and heat. So there's really little vitamin C unless you're using an actual lemon or lime.



•And of course fermented cabbage as sauerkraut has a ton of vitamin C.
