The notorious dentist, Weston Price, traveled the world visiting remote tribes of people and studying their nutrition & physical health. He found there was a "factor x" in these people's diet that was allowing them to have near perfect teeth & gum health despite not using western traditional practices. That "factor x" is now believed to be Vitamin K2. Both Iodine & Vitamin K2 are critical in maintaining healthy teeth & gums- both of which most people do not get enough of. Vitamin K2 is fat soluable, & found in high amounts in egg yolk and raw- pasture fed dairy. Vitamin K2 pulls calcium out of the bloodstream & redirects it to your bones & teeth, ultimately reducing cardiovascular disease in the process. Iodine is significantly lacking in most people's diet (Refer to posts on Iodine for more information) Besides Iodine & K2 supplements, there is an Iodine Mouthwash you can incorporate into your daily routine.
