Second Part of the Dental One-Two Punch

I have been teasing you with the other part of my one-two punch dental plan, this is actually what got me started on this. I listen to and follow several alternative health podcast websites, one of them is called OneRadioNetwork, I get an email a couple of times a week letting me know who they are interviewing next. I am especially interested in the dental shows, I have learned that the silver amalgams that used to be used to fill cavities (I HOPE they aren't using those any more!) are very toxic and unfortunately, I have several of these in my mouth. I have also learned that drill and fill are not the "be all-end all" of dental treatments. I have learned that it is possible to remineralize your teeth, and actually reverse cavities, I don't know if you can do that for large cavities, but certainly for the smaller ones.

I listened to a podcast interview of Dr. Mark Manhart, DDS, he has been a practicing dentist since 1962, he believes in and practices healing rather than the barbaric methods used today. His secret? Calcium and zinc.
You can listen to the audio podcast here or click on the link above to go directly to the page and listen, it's just under an hour, I believe you will get a lot from it.

This is what really piqued my interest, I like the idea of non-surgical dental therapy. I purchased the Calcium/zinc kit and the Calcium Carpule System. I'll explain more about each of these in a follow up post, for now let's just say that the prices for these products were in the very inexpensive range, if they work as advertised, they are well worth twice the price.

I have learned that in order to remineralize or rebuild the enamel on your teeth, there are some very common dental product ingredients that you need to avoid, this will actually prevent remineralization, namely glycerin, it's an ingredient in many dental products, toothpaste, rinses and such, glycerin coats your teeth and prevents remineralization, it stays on your teeth for a while after using it, I've read it can take up to 20 rinses to remove this glycerin layer. Just do a search for this and you will learn more than you ever wanted to know about it

Before considering using anything on my teeth or in my mouth, I read the ingredients, if it contains glycerin, I put it back on the shelf, period. It's not worth it to me to use something that will coat my teeth and prevent my teeth from remineralizing naturally.  I've been doing this for a number of years, while I haven't been to a dentist in many years, I don't believe I have any cavities, or if I do, they are small, I believe one of the reasons is that I stopped using anything containing glycerin. I also don't use fluoride,  it is a well known toxic waste product and it is not needed, for the record Periogen does contain a small amount of fluoride, a very tiny amount, it is used in the process of removing the tartar, not for "strengthening" teeth, I am willing to use it for now. Their website says:

Question
Periogen has fluoride; how much?  Why?
Answer
Periogen contains a small percentage of sodium fluoride ions (.04%) in order to have a guaranteed ion source to facilitate tartar dissolution.  Typical fluoride toothpastes contain about .24% sodium fluoride, or 6 times as much. 

you can read more about that here:
http://www.periogen.com/pages/faq.html

So here it is, my one-two punch on dental health care, I'm trying both of them now, one to remove tartar and the other to heal my teeth and gums. I'll keep you informed as to how these are working for me. What I can say now, 3 days into using them is, so far so good. :)

I received 2 bottles of Periogen free of charge for the expressed intent of giving it a trial and writing about that trial here, I purchased the other dental products, this in no way influences the outcome of the trial, I will write an honest review of these dental products and expect to receive no other compensation for the trial or review.

This episode is about privacy, specifically internet privacy.

I am discussing something near and dear to my heart, staying safe on the internet, whether you are a surfer or a blogger, there are things you can do to stay safe. My ADD is showing at the end, LOL, oh and the truck I saw on my road, it turns out it was a friend looking for Primitive Bob, this friend was driving a borrowed truck which is why I didn't recognize it.

I hope you enjoy the music, I realize music tastes are very much an individual thing, so I kept the intro short and sweet, if you don't like it, then you don't have to listen to much, if you do like it, I play the entire song at the end, listen to it if you like it, or you can cut it off after I stop talking. :)

I musical tastes are varied and sometimes obscure, so hang on to your headphones, you may be in for an interesting ride here.

Hope you enjoy the show, I love comments so leave lots of them, let me know what you want to hear on future shows.

It's All Mayberry's Fault

I blame Mayberry, it's all his fault. Now with that out of the way, here's what's happened. I found Mayberry's podcast site, I listened to his first podcast, it sounded pretty good, this is something I have considered doing for a while now, but wanted to find a free site to host the files, thanks to Mayberry for doing the legwork and finding a great site, I have officially started podcasting now. You can find my first podcast here: http://offgrid.mypodcast.com/index.html

You can listen here:



To listen to all podcasts go here:

Go there, if you want to, listen to my first podcast, it's pretty short, 10 minutes long, I would appreciate any critiques, I'll try not to breathe on the mic in the future, it's something I know happens and I dislike hearing it too, though that's not too bad. I would like some input as to the volume, is it too loud? Not loud enough? Or just right? I'm using a new USB headset/microphone set, so I'm still tweaking the settings. If you want to hear more podcasts from me, leave comments with questions and/or themes for future shows. I can't guarantee that I will do regular shows, just like this blog, I'll do more podcasts as the inspiration hits me.

I will also try to get PB to participate in future shows, he likes to talk, he is a much more natural talker than I am, we can do some shows together and that will be fun. So, give me some ideas about what you want me to talk about, ask questions, give me some feedback. Thanks everyone!

Oh, another thing, Mayberry and anyone else who decided to try podcasting through this site, it's possible to change the look of your podcast page, I was able to add some extra stuff on my page, change the look, colors, backgrounds, width and such of the generic page, if anyone wants help doing this, just holler, I'll be glad to assist. One thing that I found you can't add is Google Ads, they already have a Google Ad on the top of the page, since it's a free service, that's a fair exchange, but I found that you can add Amazon links, so if you are an Amazon affiliate, it's easy to add Amazon links. Again, just holler if you need help.
