Guest guest Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 (Since I consider most of our observations about the past to be largely speculative I am most interested by what I see and experience empirically, here and now.) In light of this you have some VERY interesting observations here Jeff. -I have noted that the longer I am eating raw the stronger my teeth seem to become. -I have also found that I am most strengthened when I eat a whole stalk and top of broccoli for dinner, no dressing. It seems that the more detoxed I get the less I am " put off " by raw broccoli. -And I have had my mercury " amalgam " fillings removed; which also helped my overall health considerably. You offer some very interesting and plausible thoughts on teeth and the straightening role that greens may play and the weakening role that heavy metals and, perhaps, most other dental restoration materials may play. Thanks for the good, sound thoughts Jeff. Tim Campbell ps, The German researcher Dietrich Klinghardt has a theory that the pelvis and the lower jaw both serve as something of a trough in the body; acting as a collection-point for heavy metals and other toxins. [Has anyone ever used Cilantro Pesto. It is extremely powerful. When eating it I can almost feel the metals being drawn out of my jaw.] >>>The chewing action with the greens may also help drive minerals into the teeth. I further suspect that when we add dressings, avocado, or oils, etc. to our salads, we end up coating both the greens and the teeth, so that the direct mineralization of the teeth is dramatically reduced. While our ancestors would have been eating mono meals, many of us eating raw foods, still eat a lot of gourmet and other mixed foods, preventing ideal assimilation of nutrients. Did our ancestors teeth also have a greater ability to regenerate enamel to repair the teeth? Did they have the ability to regenerate new teeth as adults? Now, what of our teeth now and their ability to regenerate enamel or the jaw's ability to regenerate teeth? When we put amalgam fillings, including heavy metals such as mercury, into the teeth, does that prevent the teeth from being able to regenerate enamel? Does it weaken other teeth? Does it prevent the jaw from the ability to regenerate teeth? Combined with the lack of exercise and cooked foods (altered nutrition) it is no surprise to me why so many people have bad teeth as adults. Does anyone on this list have ONLY ONE amalgam filling? One theory is that the weakened state of the mouth leads to more.<<< Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
