Nine out of ten adults suffer from gum disease, Most of these problems could be avoided thro self care, keeping dental appointments, taking immune defining supplementation, gargling, cleaning, flossing and paying attention to your mouth, teeth and gums. Natures Answer has come up with new toothpaste especially for periodontal problems called Periobrite Toothpaste, which helps prepare your teeth and gums for healing with nothing artificial. Using natural dental health products, feeding and nourishing your immune system keeps bacteria at bay and are very effective ways to stop this onslaught. Jason Natural Cosmetics has a few very popular products like Powersmile, Sea Fresh and Healthy Mouth with all the ingredients like Perilla Oil Seed (which can block the sugar acids), Natural Bamboo (anti-inflammatory) and other tropical healers like Grapefruit Seed Extract grabbing that tartar on your teeth.

Most people develop gum disease at some point in their adult lives leading to tooth loss, bad oral hygiene. A diet high in sugary foods leads to infections and deep pockets between the gums and teeth. It could also include bone recession and loose teeth. Oral Health Tonic by Herb Pharm has nutrients of Spilanthes (anti-fungal), Thyme (antiseptic), Myrrh (bleeding gums) and Cloves (for pain). Source Naturals has Coral Calcium. Multi Trace Mineral Complex from the Coral helps with bone and all those Trace Minerals, the ones we are missing from our food. World Organics has Sea Food Liquid Nutrition From The Sea with 9 different Sea Veggies, also has Coral, Herbs and Silver. Sea Veggies have all the Minerals and Trace Minerals. Anybody here on Chemo or Radition? Did you know they take all the Minerals out of your body? They deplete the other nutrients too! And this is a main concern! Anyone here for Hip Replacement? Nutrient levels in our foods are at the lowest they have ever been. The Optimal levels we need cannot be relied upon to save us from degenerative diseases. Also supporting Bone & Teeth Formation is the stabilized form of Orthosilicic Acid, known as Jarrow's Biosil, which has 2 1/2 times the bio-availability then regular nutrients and can also be combined with Jarrow's Bone Up and Ultra Bone Up, both have Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite (live bone food) working together to increase bone density.

Ever heard of Osteoporosis of the Mouth? In fact that's where it starts! Those with the most diseased gums had 1.12 millimeters of build up in the arteries, and with periodontal infection , could lead to arteriosclerotic heart disease. Even tooth decay with older fillings and old cavities allow bacteria to leak inside and cause infections (ouch) leading to gum & other chronic diseases, such as heart and strokes, blockages everywhere. High Absorption Coq10/Bioperine by Drs Best, a 400 mg cap is a very effective way to get Co Q10 into the cells for those with damaged gums and teeth, as we all know CoQ10 is very beneficial for Heart problems too, especially in this mg. Doctor's Best also has Camu Camu - 30 times more vitamin C in a 4 to 1 extract (caps) which compliments full absorption. It is excellent for bleeding gums. The bark of the Maritime Tree discovered in the 1500's - a combination of procyanidins, bioflavonoid, powerful Anti oxidants for collagen and elastin and nitric oxide (circulation) called Pycnogenol is available with both Source Naturals and Now Foods. Most of us still have mercury fillings. Helping to detox so the mercury does not travel to other body parts, be sure to start re-planting the good bacteria to counteract this attack. Natren and Sedona Labs, both have good versions of this helpful bacteria. Source Naturals has Colostrums, swish it around on your gums, then swallow for your Intestinal tract, has all your anti-bodies (your immune helpers). Dry Mouth, (usually resulting from medications or alzheimers), high blood pressure etc are all a risk for good Oral Health. Thayers has Dry Mouth Lozenges And Sprays, just for that purpose. The most dangerous enemy of the teeth is wide variety of living bacteria that live in your mouth and gums (at least 200 to 300 types of germs are there!). Dr Kens-The Natural Choice has Breath Strips in Wild Flavors with anti-bacterials, naturally unlike the drugstore kind. Dr Kens has all the Important Flosses and Cool Mouthwashes in Funky Flavors- keeps your mouth refreshed. A Teeth & Gum Formula by King Bio-Natural Medicine is a 2 fluid ozs of tincture for hurting teeth and sore gums, all Homeopathic. Medical researches are beginning to discover systemic diseases have a negative effect on Oral Health. Natures Answer with Perio Cleanse Oral Irrigator Concentrate combines all your antibiotic Herbs, Black Walnut, Prickly Ash Bark (gum enhancer) Essential Oils- 2 pumps into your reservoir-a protective factor day and night. To make your own anti-microbial rinse, mix a few drops of Echinacea, Goldenseal, Bloodroot (Herb Pharm) Grapefruit Seed and Myrrh and White Oak Bark (astringent that will even help save a loose tooth).

A Mouthful of Glossary


The vast majority of people with Diabetes have Gum Disease

Breathing problems worsen when bacteria migrate from mouth to lungs

The first sign of Osteoporosis and HIV infections is often detected in Dental Routine Exams

N-Acetyl L Cysteine by Now Foods, known as NAC is not only a precursor to Glutathione (What's that -- An amino acid that grabs those bad bugs), well known for mucus clearing and detoxification of foreign substances to our bodies, and has been used for 30 years to break up mucus. According to research by Dr. Richard Passwater, PhD, mucus has been known for the deadly disease of Cystic Fibrosis and NAC reduces Retroviral Infection. So for many people with oxygen tanks strapped to their bodies or with Nagging coughs, shortness of breath, continual hoarseness of voice, clearing the throat continuously, recurring sore throats and emphysema. A Mullen Lung Complex by Planetary Formulas, Botanical cascade of Chinese Herbs for the Lungs is a great product. Mullen Lung Complex is Mullen and Wild Cherry Bark in a complex. Various lung issues take their toll causing inflammation and bronchitis, resulting in the Obstruction of the airways. Help is on the way with the Ultimate Respiratory Cleanse by Natures Secret. Can you imagine how this helps? The latest news from Researches at the National Institute of Environmental Health found by measuring Lung Functions, that the dangerous effects come from air fresheners, toilet bowl deodorants (not the natural ones). Even mothballs contain a substance called 1,4 DCB. That's a lethal ingredient, and exposure can cause long term side effects building up thru the years, especially those with Respiratory Health issues. Jarrow Formulas has Antioxidant Formula for just that kind of Protection.

How healthy are your Lungs? Run up 2 flights of stairs or walk 6 blocks without running out of breath-no stopping! Did you know that the Heart and Lungs work together per Chinese herbology. North American Herbs & Spice has Oregacyn Respiratory Support that contains a Wild Mountain Blend of Spices, Pretty Hot Stuff.

Interaction of certain foods can trigger respiratory stress. These foods include Dairy foods, White Rice, Food Additives especially those nasty food colorings, dyes, and to some extent shell fish. For air borne allergies, Food Science of Vermont has B15 Lozenges. And for those of you who like Tea, here's some suggestions from Traditional Medicinals that can be added to your Respiratory Health Program. Throat Coat and Breath Easy, especially when taken before bedtime. The challenges of Asthma and children with Respiratory issues, which is spasm of bronchial tubes and the mucus in the lungs, could be triggered by anything the environment throws at us. Fumes, dust sensitive airways with the inflammation and of course food allergies. Did you know that certain drugs for Asthma can deplete all B vitamins, and those Oral Inhaled Steroids can increase the risk of Osteoporosis-no matter how rosy those TV commercials sound. Clear Lungs by Ridgecrest Herbals could help with Shortness of Breath, Wheezing and Tightness of Chest.

Now for the very young among us. Children can take Homepathics in liquid by Natra-Bio Allers Blends, such as Food Allergy Relief, Pollen/Hay fever, Grass, Pollen, Dairy, Animal Hair/Dander. They are easy to take. Just follow the directions.

And for our Pets, Green Foods Corporation, have Barley Cat and Barley Dog, all providing live enzymes, Chlorophyll for cleansing and helps nourish the Immune System. There are lots of answers to respiratory problems nutritionally, since once again, your Immune System, Genetics, Food Allergies and the Environment issues all play a part in this intricate drama of your Respiratory System.

In a lot of ways, our gastrointestinal tract is our second immune system and our second brain. Natrens Bifidus Factors re-implants that good bacteria that you lost from pharmaceuticals, antibiotics etc and is also a big help for digestion and any immune disorder. We need to be constantly on the defense. Detoxification and cleansing are always one of the first steps. The Green Foods by Dr. Hagiwora, Green Magma, also recommended by Dr. Elson M Haas, author of The New Detox Diet, help with your Acid & Alkaline balance. We are attacked by Infection, Inflammation, and Metabolic Diseases, Moducare by Wakunaga/Kyolic increases the Natural Killer Cells for overactive or under active immunity. It comes from Plant Fats, known as Sterols/ Sterolins. Moducare also comes in chewable grape flavor.

All chronic and metabolic diseases cause immune system failure. The Lifestyle Disease Division of the Ministry of Health and Labor in their 2006 report, said that the Metabolic Syndrome shows up in one out of every two men, ages 40-74 and beyond. With women, it's one out of every five in the same age group. This shows that high blood pressure, high cholesterol and elevated insulin levels are going thru the roof. We are not paying attention to these warnings. Ridgecrest Herbals has Blood Sugar Balance, with all the Chinese botanicals to encourage natural harmony. Jarrow Formulas has Glucose Optimizer, with all the herbs, amino acids and full spectrum ingredients. Our protective immune cells, which are the elite warriors of the white blood cells, are screaming, help me, help me. They need your help in defending themselves against the super germs and super microbes, and warding off the stressors of our environment and lifestyle, and the pharmaceuticals that gobble up all our nutrients. Mangoxan by Pure Fruit Technologies helps the absorption of Antioxidants, and other nerve damages. They also have Goji-Zen. Goji also known as Wolfberry in traditional Chinese medicine has been in use for Eye Health, for twenty centuries.

Our diets are low in immune strengthening nutrients resulting in depression and other immunological factors. Nobody can eat enough, that's a fool’s tale in this day and age, considering what our generation is up against. Different organs of our body require different nutrients, as they all go down to different cell receptor sites for repairing, and we need to repair every single day. Antibodies, what are they? That's what is released by our Immune System, if the immune system is working properly. Now Foods has Immune Advantage, with all the Immunoglobulins, that work with our red blood cells and Proline, an amino acid for Heart Health. Now Foods also has Colostrum, which is a very important function of those antibodies to destroy and prevent naughty cells from developing. It comes in powder or caps. While pollution and chemicals affect us at the cellular level, nutritionals will help keep us living longer and healthier and slow down our aging clock. So send in nutritional support for your body’s defense team and become a lean mean fighting machine.

Now for our picky children, they also need immune help, they usually do not eat right and are exposed to all kinds of germs. Healthasure has the Gummie Bear packs with all the nutrients, and Hero Nutritional Products has the Yummie Bears, a whole food fruit and veggie blend. And what about our pet's, they come down with almost the same problems we do. Mezotrace has a complete formula, which includes all the B vitamins, antioxidants and trace minerals. Jarrow Formulas has the Intestinal For Pets, this has all the good strains of Probiotics, It can be mixed in their foods for detoxification and bad breath.

Unfortunately, most Physicians have no-where to go with this, except the NSAID'S Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs. When Inflammation takes place in our digestive tract, we have diarrhea, since Chronic Disease is attributed to changes in our dietary lifestyles throughout the world. Wobenzym By Naturally Vitamins, a European Formula of Systemic Enzymes helps alter the decline of your Immune System that causes degenerative Break Down and Chronic Pain that comes in waves like a hot stove. Rutozym, not only helps Heart Health but benefits healthy levels of Fibrinogen and the C-Reative Protein, which is the Inflammatory Response. I had one of my clients on this among other nutrients as she had Rheumatoid Arthritis starting at a very young age. No More, and off medications too. Rheumatoid is an Autoimmune Disease, that's when the body turns against it self. In our arteries, the walls thicken causing hardening of the Arteries. Inholtra Natural Pain Relief has Lubri-Joint, which has all the Glucosamine- Chondroitin, Nag, EFA's etc, a potent revitalize for those searing Inflammatory issues. All of these should be taken in between meals for better results, and not just one.

Most of us are aware of Chondroitin and Glucosamine, but we need to incorporate other nutrients as well in order to give Pain the Heave-HO! Since the first drugs recommended is aspirin, and when the pain becomes too severe, other NSAID's are called for. We won't mention them here, but the Big Pharma have made tons of money with high dosages and Life Threatening Disorders of the Poisoning from within. Now Foods has the D-Flame Tm with Cox 2 Inhibitors, full blend with Chinese Medicinals - Scutellaria (Chinese Skullcap) Bromelain, Ginger, Tumeric. These common ailments have natural solutions. Stephen Holt MD, Board Certified in Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology says 'NSAID"s work by inhibiting the Lipoxygenase Conversion that block production of Inflammatory substances, that's why they're called “Cox Inhibitors". With a broad array of Cox 2, Inflama Rest by Source Naturals with Leukotriene Regulation, adds to the protection of the cells from Free Radical Damage, and Adaptogenic Herbs of the American Herbal Family. Hops, Ginger, Milk Thistle, Ayurvedic Ashwagandha and Tumeric, reducing Muscle Tension and the stress of Pain.

Here's a Big Kicker of the South American Rain Forest Herbs by Raintree Nutrition, called Guacatonga, even for Ulcers, Reflux, and Inflammatory Skin Problems. Another one is called Iporuru is for Pain, Arthritis, and Rheumatism. Getting back to the Americans, Jarrow has the Cox 2 TAME, with MAX-DHA and Enzyme Inhibitors like Devils Claw, White Willow (Natural Aspirin) Green Tea and Resveratrol. MSM a popular Anti-Inflammatory by Tropical Oasis is a naturally occurring Sulfur Compound found in plants, contributing to the integrity of your Joints. It is available as a Liquid Lotion to apply or in Ounces as a Nutritious Drink. Planetary Formulas has Flex-Ability 850 mgs, Liquid or Tabs, widely used in Asia as (ShuJin San.) Super Lions Mane (Love that Name) by Maitake Mushroom Wisdom contains Maitake D Fraction, Reishi an excellent Anti-Inflammatory, also with Bioperine, which helps shoot it down to the cells, now a word about Connective tissues and Tendons (Ouch).

Herb Pharm has Connective Tissue Tonic with Gotu Kola (Centella) Ayurvedic, Dandelion and Milk Thistle (even Gall Bladder help). Country Life with Liga-Tend, considering ligaments and Tendons with Proline, Glycine and Shark Cartilage, and not to be left out with this condition of Swellings is Clear Products formula of Clear Shingles, Herpes, UT'S, a combo of TCM Herbs and Homeopathics featured on my website under Special Products. Here's a very interesting one Mineral Whey Goat Powder, an Alkaline Electrolyte balancing act, for your Bones, Teeth and Muscle nourishment. So try these more natural ingredients that provide alternatives to the Cox Pathways, instead of the High Risk NSAID'S, that provide only band-aid solutions. Even so, you can do both if necessary, always remember to protect your Liver. "Age Strong, Live Long” says Dr. Seth J Baum MD, who feels the Best Course, is Open-Mindedness for greater knowledge in your Commitment To Wellness.

I'm not mentioning here all the pharmaceuticals that we are brainwashed into thinking that will calm our nerves and make us a better person. There are a lot of prescriptions as a first line of defense written for stress, and explaining all the side effects. If we have those side effects, we better start cleaning our liver, as you may be aware our liver holds all those toxins. Stress hits us there too, and stays. One very good product is Bupleurum Liver Cleanse by Planetary Herbals, a 5000-year-old Chinese herb with other yin and yang herbs. Stress becomes so many diseases and stores in our bodies like an unwelcome guest, it can hit anywhere … the digestion tract, bladder, heart rate, muscles, skin issues, and brain of course telling our organs what to do. This is the number one on the list of what happens to us. It can also trigger release of hormones that promote blood clotting …for that better take Wobenzym. Stress also releases glucose into the blood stream, causes hypertension and hardening of the arteries, strokes and heart attacks. No wonder all those guys are getting zapped! Try Tense Ease by Nature’s Answer.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, includes Pre-Occupation with stressful events, since this is the most stressed out society in the history of mankind and the most chemical-laden century,

The Biochemical Stages of Stress

4 Fast Oxidation, excessive hormones, and unbalanced minerals. We can get help from the Ionic Minerals by Now Foods

4 Mild to Slow Oxidation, reduced adrenal & thyroid activity. Adrenal Cortex by Enzymatic Therapy and Thyroid Energy by Now Foods can help.

4 Very slow Oxidation, low adrenal exhaustion. Try Schizandra Adrenals by Planetary Formulas or Raw thymus by Ultra Glandulars

Oxidation occurs when the thyroid gland is not functioning at required levels and is the process by which certain elements combine with oxygen to release energy at the cellular level. Sub-Lingual B12 by Now Foods helps keep Nerve and Brain tissue from being wiped out. Adaptogen Herbs, (what's this? that's when the body loses it's ability to adapt to anything) include Hops, Passion Flower, Scullcap, to name a few.

There is so much help nutritionally here, sending better signals to our brain, calming our nervous system, better eating habits, exercising, all are helpers, but we need to look at our nutritional for better results to keep us younger and healthier.
