The timing on this one could not be better.

Just yesterday, I was forced to spend some time at the auto body shop. While picking up a friend from the airport recently another driver backed into my Jeep, leaving a pretty ugly dent in the bumper.

Even though the repairs won’t be coming out of my pocket, I still got that uneasy feeling when I stepped inside the shop.

It’s funny, I can tell you almost anything about how the human body works. However, when it comes to automobiles, the extent of my knowledge is that when I turn the key my Jeep magically starts.

In other words, I’m clueless.

So you can probably imagine how edgy and suspicious I get when a mechanic gives me a quote. No one likes to be taken advantage of.

Most people get a similar feeling at the dentist’s office. I mean, not many of us are sufficiently well-versed in matters of oral health to challenge our dentist’s findings…as well as the exorbitant bill that comes with them.

So, how cool would it be if your could attend a FREE workshop that taught you just about everything you needed to know about oral health? Stuff like:

* The scientific truth about the safety of fluoride.
* If root canals are really the best option. And if not, then what is?
* How to raise cavity-free kids.
* Which specific foods prevent tooth decay.
* The best tips for keeping your breath fresh.
* Is it safe to leave mercury fillings in, or should you replace them?

Well, you’re in luck. Because my friends Will and Susan Revak of OraWellness have put together this very event.

And it’s online!

And it’s FREE!

The Healthy Mouth World Summit features the best of the best experts in REAL oral health, including:

Gum disease is some serious sh*t.

If you’re reading this right now and you’re over 30 years of age, there is a 90% chance that you have bugs hanging out in your mouth that cause gum disease.

I’ll never kiss another girl in my life…

In his office, my holistic dentist has a microscope hooked up to a TV screen on which he shows his patients the oral bugs they’re carrying around. Fortunately, mine was pretty clean. But when he showed me a video of what a typical patient’s oral environment looks like, it was like a scene from that movie Snakes on a Plane! The screen was overrun with little snakelike creatures called spirochetes.

Straight. Up. Craziness.

Why do I feel the need to gross you out like this? Well, because I just got done listening to the replay of last night’s UW Radio show with my main man Will Revak of OraWellness.

The show was an Instant Classic.

As Will says, gum disease is the elephant in the living room when it comes to health – no one likes to talk about it. But that definitely needs to change. If not, one-third of us will end up with no natural teeth in our mouths by the age of 65 (that’s the current statistic).

But it’s even more serious than the mere vanity of having a full set of real choppers. Being a student of the work of Weston A. Price, I learned long ago how infections in the mouth can lead to other common diseases such as heart disease, cancer, arthritis, and more.

Yep, the bugs in your mouth can give you a heart attack. It’s called focal infection theory. Will covers this theory in detail during the show. You can also click the video below for a sneak peek.

We covered a ton of information last night and took a bunch of calls from our faithful live listeners. Some of the other topics we covered included:

* Exactly how bacteria use your mouth as a gateway to slip into your bloodstream thus causing disease

* Why antibiotics are ineffective at killing off oral bacteria

* Why boosting the immune system through diet and lifestyle modification is paramount to successfully reducing the bacterial population in the mouth

* The effectiveness of the Bass brushing technique and why most toothbrushes are far from ideal

* Will’s beef with common oral care products

* The two ingredients you want to avoid…even in HEALTHY toothpastes

* Which foods are best for promoting oral health, and which you should avoid

* The effectiveness of oil pulling

* The OTHER way that sugar harms your teeth

* The action step you can take TODAY to improve the heath of your mouth

Seriously Will Never Kiss Another Girl if She Isn’t Using OraWellness Products

by Will and Susan Revak

Thanks to Seanʼs work, a lot of attention is given to the quality of food we eat, what types of food nourish us best, and above all how to use the toilet for the ultimate elimination!

When we talk about food, Sean helps us see why we want to eat natural, organic, ʻreal foodʼ and certainly choose foods free of toxic ingredients. Doesnʼt it seem appropriate to give a similar amount of consideration to the oral hygiene products we use on a daily basis?

We believe that to create optimal health and wellness we have to hold the same standard for our personal hygiene products as we do for the foods we eat to nourish our bodies.

But why do we need to put the same consideration to our oral hygiene products as we do for the foods we eat? After all, we arenʼt eating our toothpaste, right? I will let Dean Vafiadis, DDS, president and founder of the New York Smile Institute answer this question…

“Most of what you put in your mouth goes into your bloodstream, even if you don’t swallow it.” Dean Vafiadis, D.D.S.

In fact, some chemicals enter your system faster through the mouth than by the usual stomach route.

So, at this point, letʼs turn our attention and take a look at the main controversial ingredient in oral hygiene products, fluoride.

While there are valid points on each side of the fluoride argument, we have found the main difference is how broad of a perspective each side takes when viewing the subject. Those in favor of using fluoride in the mouth are looking from the viewpoint that goes something like this, “applying fluoride on the teeth helps to reduce tooth decay so we should use it”. Those not in favor of using fluoride take a broader, more holistic view. This more general approach questions whether the benefits of using fluoride on the teeth are greater than the risks of fluoride on the health of the whole body. Since our company produces organic toothpaste alternatives, you can guess where we stand on this argument.

It would be different if using fluoride was the ONLY way to achieve greater oral health. Then we may have to weigh more closely whether the benefits of using fluoride was more important than the risks. But, there are plenty of ways to create greater oral health without using fluoride.

So, hereʼs our major concern about fluoride exposure…

Fluoride displaces iodine in the body.

There it is. Did you miss it? Doesnʼt sound like a big deal, does it?

While that doesnʼt sound so terrible, hereʼs my case for fluoride poisoning from toothpaste (and water fluoridation) being a driving cause for subclinical hypothyroidism which has direct links to all of the major modern diseases we find in our global culture.

Here is how fluoride is good for you (aka how fluoride can help you achieve your goals)…

If you want to be fat…

The thyroid gland regulates metabolism among other functions. That means that if the thyroid gland is under active, not only does our ability to burn fat diminish, our desire to even get off the couch to workout plummets too!

Our metabolic function is like the fire in every cell that keeps it moving well, kind of like the level where you car idles when at a stop light. This fire needs to be running at the right speed in order for us to live a healthy life.

If you want to be tired all day…

You see, fluorine is a halogen, chemically related to iodine, but much more active. As such, fluoride out-competes and displaces iodine at the receptor sites on the thyroid gland which respond to the thyroid stimulating hormone; so that less of this hormone reaches the thyroid gland and so less thyroid hormone is manufactured.

When the thyroid slows, so does the whole metabolism. So we find that we feel tired, and just to make it through the day find ourselves reaching for adrenal stimulants like coffee, sugar or (God forbid) Red Bull or you fill in the blank for your adrenal robber of choice.

If you want to diminish your sex drive…

Be sure to have small doses of fluoride daily. You see, a little goes a LONG way when it comes to the iodine displacing function of fluoride in the body. Donʼt worry if you arenʼt getting enough fluoride, your body doesnʼt really eliminate it very quickly so we store it up over time…

Making sure you have plenty of fluoride will ensure that you wonʼt feel like doing anything but crash when you go to bed!

If you want to be cold all the time…

Low body temperature is the easiest way to determine how well your thyroid is functioning. Here is an easy way to see where you are at with your body temp. Take your temperature first thing in the morning. Plan by bringing your thermometer with you when you go to bed and shake it down before going to bed. That way you can test your temp before you even get up to go to the bathroom in the morning. Even getting up and walking to the bath will raise your base body temp a bit. So, itʼs best to test while you are still laying in bed.

You may be surprised to find out that you arenʼt the temp we all learned when we were kids! What temp is a human? 98.6 F or 37 C. While not perfect, finding your temp below 97 is a good indicator of low thyroid function. (note here, women on their cycle should wait to test when not menstruating.)

If you want to increase your risk of all types of cancer…

Cancer thrives in a system with an under active thyroid. Cancer grows very well in a body whose fire isnʼt running at optimal function. It makes sense given that an under active, sluggish metabolism wonʼt flush toxins as well, so the toxins build up in the body. A body with low thyroid function generally becomes less efficient at processing fuel, removing toxins, and the whole system downshifts to a slow grind.

Some experts in the field of alternative, natural cancer treatments use inducing a fever in the body to fight the cancer and help restore health to the patient. You see, cancerous cells donʼt do well in a well burning, fully functioning metabolism.

There are other options. You can create greater oral health without using toxic ingredients. We offer organic, toxin free alternatives to traditional oral care products. OraWellness provides tools and techniques to help folks navigate to greater oral health.

We have several UW inspired free instructional videos on our site to help you create greater oral health in your own life.
