      Hi Dr. Ellie, I've been using xylitol mints and gum for a few weeks now and I'm starting your complete system today. I also just ordered some more Zellies gum and mints. The thing that most impressed me about your system is that you have promoted it for so long. I saw a 14 year old video where you basically were saying the same thing. I have two questions. I bought some xylitol crystals. Should I do a xylitol rinse after using the system before bed? And I think you may have already answered this, but should I swallow the rinse? I'm using about 1/2 teaspoon of xylitol and a sip of water for the rinse. Thank you.

    I’ve had pretty bad recession on 12 teeth after removing braces at age 21. Been to many dentists since then and they said it couldn’t be fixed. Went to the dentist again recently and 13 years of not healing them eroded gums pretty bad to the point I couldn’t consume anything cold or sticky sweet like caramel or chocolate. The dentist told me they have to put sealants onto the exposed roots and asked for a fortune for 4 teeth even with a discount. I came home, found this Doc, purchased everything in the system for $75 and started following the program, figuring it can’t get worse at this point. I’m at 2 months and the gums completely covered a few exposed roots already, so the sensitivity went significantly down. Thank you lots!

      Too bad you don't have before and after photos. That would be interesting to see. The big disagreement I have with Doc is her assertion that caries can be treated with Xylitol amd her system. It would take YEARS to know and to show this and by that time the caries WILL progress. The science of cariology is clear. Once bacteria are in the dentin you CAN NOT stop it without removing it. Xylitol can clear the gut of healthy bacteria. She states this in her video. It's not because of the fiber. Just as it clears the mouth of bacteria, it alters the gut. I use xylitol for as a rinse and also use it to clear the sinus. But repairing caries? BS....

This is AFTER they told me I was losing my bone structure, so I asked everyone of these "dentists" "why would I get a crown if the bone structure underneath is eroding?"

      If they said you are losing bone, that’s called periodontal disease. Perio disease can be stopped. Get a “deep cleaning “ which is called SRP. Then clean your teeth daily with electric toothbrush, floss, and a water pick. Get the crown to save the tooth. Xylitol helps to prevent further decay. It takes time, effort and some money, but you CAN get your mouth healthy again.

      @MayaMickaMicak 2 месяца назад +5

      I'm not entirely sure if I remember this correctly, but when I did research for my mother's friend who has a similar issues as you, I read that crowns are needed so that you would actually use your teeth for chewing and stuff like that. For example, my mother's friend used to wear dentures but they weren't done correctly so they didn't fit as they should, and after she took them out she stopped wearing them for years, and because of that she started losing the bone beneath her teeth (sorry I don't know the terminology, I'm from Europe), the bone started deteriorating- because she didn't use it for a long time. She needs crowns on her remaining teeth (and fixed dentures of course) so that she can start actually using her teeth and so that she doesn't lose more of her bone. So when you get crowns to be able to use your teeth again and when you chew you press on those bones and you signal to your body that you're using your teeth, so the bone stops deteriorating. Basically, if you don't use them- you lose them, just like when you don't use your muscles for a long period of time, they atrophy.
      Take this with a grain of salt of course, I was researching about this a couple years ago so I may be misremembering some things.
      Also, be careful with taking too much xylitol (no more than 30-40 grams a day) because it could be dangerous and it will have some side effects, don't take it when pregnant or breastfeeding, and it's extremely toxic to pets like dogs and cats.
      I looked at a few scientific studies about the effects of xylitol on teeth and cavities, and most of them are poorly done or they conclude that xylitol isn't really that effective for treating cavities, so beware of the placebo effect before spending a large amount of money on it. I encourage you to research xylitol on your own, if you want of course, and it's better to use reputable sources and to look at several studies, because one small study doesn't mean anything and they are often poorly done.
      Anyways, I hope you're having a great day and good luck with your health journey! 🍀

      1)use the right xylitol gum or mints after meals and here and there, maybe like 6 times a day. She has mints/gum called Zellies you can find.
      2)morning and night do the following in this order:
      A)mouth wash with closys mouthwash sensitive ONLY (do not use the healthy gum one.
      B) brush teeth with regular Crest. Do not use the other options of crest, only regular cavity protection basic crest.
      C)mouth wash with original listerine
      D)mouth wash with basic ACT. I think this only comes with flavors, so pick a basic one, not any special extra option.
      I would watch her hour long video. Its worth it. She goes in to depth about the exact right ones to use and extra tips and techniques. I might not be relying it exactly right.

    I’ve just gotten off of three weeks of antibiotics due to a terrible infection actually caused by using dental picks and brushing too hard. I just wanted to share that cleaning too much can cause you potentially life threatening infection. I now understand that I must brush very gently, I use a small children’s brush now, and I stopped flossing and tooth picks. I only rinse with water, mouth wash, apple cider vinegar in water (making sure to rinse with water after very very thoroughly), and very soft rubber intermittent brushes. Rinsing with water is very important. I also take Xylitol. On a different note. After starting Xylitol, by tummy is now flat. No longer bloated. I used to bloated for so many years despite eating healthy and excercising. 😊 Very pleased with Xylitol. I have a beautiful jar for tea, filled with Xylitol pastilles, on my desk now. 😊

      Part of the problem getting people to do this protocol is lack of awareness. When she talks about this Complete Care System it sounds like she’s selling something which I think turns people off. It takes a bit of digging or watching an hour plus video to realize it’s just a protocol of using 3 different over the counter mouthwashes with some rules for how and when. The system has dramatically improved my gums and is removing plaques. Now I see three teeth with caries and I’m hopeful the caries will heal. I realize that’ll probably take several months if it happens at all. I lost one tooth to gum disease then I found this program and now have confidence I should be able to stop the downhill slide.

    I love Xylitol. I used to buy birch sugar in bulk from Finland. That was about 15 or 16 years ago , but now I can find it fairly easily in stores. I use it to brush my teeth, and it eliminates morning dragon breath. I also understand that xylitol increases bone density. Since fungi, virus, and bacteria can't live on xylitol it's not surprising to me that it also impacts cancer cells. It certainly doesn't feed them, like glucose does. Thank you for your advocacy of this incredible sugar.

    I've been chewing gum with xylitol in it for two years!
    I had to have an implant where a previous dentist had made me a partial after I went in asking for an implant. The first dentist really messed up the tooth next to the one that was removed as well. The second dentist fixed everything and in doing that he had to do a bone graft. It was pretty involved and took quite a bit of time and I was 70 and took some time to heal.
    Now I'm healed and love my second dentist. I thought he had somehow made all my teeth feel tighter & stronger. After all I've heard now about xylitol, I'm not so sure that IT didn't make the difference in my teeth! I had a lot of stress over my teeth and was chewing the mint gum for constant indigestion!

    • @dr.elliephillips
      @dr.elliephillips  2 месяца назад +13

      @@beahaven The study does not say xylitol is unsafe...which is why this should never have been reported this way by the media.
      To understand why the group of P & G / Pfizer + private equity funding from Germany did the study - understand they are looking to have a patent for a blood test to measure blood platelet activity.
      This test was all about blood platelet activity - and activity is always increased when there is a need for "healing" or stress and in faact when people have gum/periodontal disease.
      So, 10 subjects drank 30 grams of xylitol and to some degree their platelet activity increased - THAT is what the study showed.
      No one had any clinical symptoms - and 30 grams in one shot after fasting is a LOT of xylitol.
      Our body makes 15 grams of xylitol daily by metabolism - and so we should be able to extrapolate that 15 grams over the course of a day is something the body understands easily.
      For oral health I recommend 5-10 grams a day AFTER meals and spaced out as 1-2 grams x5 daily.
      This means your platelet activity could rise if you drink 30 grams after a fast and may be high if you have risk factors for heart problems - (the 10 people were at a heart clinic and may have been overweight, had diabetes, gum disease etc....we have no idea about them.)
      In fact at the end of the Cleveland announcement it states that the amounts in mints and gum are too small to be considered.
      The news media obviously missed that part of the article.
      So the take away at this time - maybe have some caution about drinking quantities of xylitol after a fast.
      I would say the same about salt - and maybe they should test that next - it is great in small quantities - but don't drink 30 grams in one sitting.

All subjects had experienced heart problems, a large number were diabetic and their gum disease status was not recorded ( a risk for heart problems).
      Study was funded by private equity groups - a red flag.
      To dissolve that much xylitol requires you heat it up and then cool it down - quite a procedure.
      Who drinks 30 grams.
      Anyway, no one had any clinical symptoms - just their blood showed an increase in platelet activity - which can mean a number of things.
      The media went wild within 2 hours of the study - skewing the message - almost purposefully.

    Hi Dr. Philips. I think it is OK to rinse mouth and spit out. But I wouldn't recommend to digest it so frequently. Because modern mass production technics can involve heavy metals in trace amounts which seems to be dangerous to be a regular food. You have to learn that from factory data, the second hand distributer doesn't care about it. For example, the xylitol I have very probably has these specifications: Lead ≤ 0.5 mg/Kg, other heavy metals ≤ 10 mg/Kg, Nickel ≤ 1 mg/Kg. I wrote "very probably" because most of the manifacturers of the origin country of xylitol I bought have these specifications.

    Well I bit the bullet and went to the dentist after 10 years.. I'm 44. I have to get a deep cleaning, but the dentist was really impressed with the condition of my teeth and gums for not having been in so long. After I do this, with a fresh start, I'm going to look into your protocol!

      You should get on my system FIRST and make that deep cleaning more productive and more comfortable for you and your hygienist.
      Just saying :) That would be my recommendation

      @@dr.elliephillips Thank you; I went to the store today, couldn't find the regular crest cavity prevention, but they had the children's version. Ingredients looked the same so I bought it. I noticed the Closys contains chlorine dioxide. I'm already into MMS, but I was thinking about it, and it seems taking an oral MMS protocol such as 1000, or Protocol C for CDS would contradict what you say about not drinking between meals. With those protocols, you have to take a sip every hour. Not only that, MMS and CDS are acidic. Are you against the use of them?

    Can you please provide substitutes for the Act and Closys mouthwash. They are not readily available in Canada and are very expensive on Amazon to maintain the program long term.

    Hi Dr. Ellie, i would like to sincerely request that Zellie's be made available in the Philippines or at least through Amazon. I look forward to meeting you someday and share with you my success story. Thank you for what you do, as you give many hope and golden knowledge. Love and light from Manila ❤

    I LOVE Xylitol! I’ve been using it for many years and I can’t believe it’s not better known. I’m in Australia and it’s not well known here either.
    I use it to improve intestinal health. My husband uses Xylimelts every night to reduce dry mouth symptoms and has found them amazingly effective.
    Thanks for your video!

    The CREST toothpaste you recommend has BLUE 1 in the ingredients. This is still the best toothpaste to buy?

    I've been chewing the gum for about 11 months. The dentist has noticed improvement at 6 months. I notice little things like my teeth feel smother. I haven't seen any improvement in the damage and bone loss but I have stopped seeing "pink in the sink". I also noticed there was no bleeding when my dentist cleaned my teeth and gums. I'm going to continue use and report my experiences.

    I was really annoyed at the way this study was conducted and the "findings" announced, was waiting to see if you brought it up. I think they've done the study with an agenda in mind -- And from what I heard, they extrapolated their conclusion to "Xylitol is very bad for you, it may give you a stroke because when we exposed it directly to blood it became solid". Like wtf man, wtf!!!!
    edit: You may have noted that a similar such study was conducted on Erithritol a few years ago. Only study of its kind which gave the result: Erythritol is bad for you, it will give you a heart attack.
    It's fueled by some damage control going on in the industry.

    Thanks. Would have been good to include which brands are good to buy and which area not.
