    Xylitol in mints and chewing gum is very effective at reducing tooth decay and gum disease and reversing cavities in the right circumstances. The study and the clickbait headlines that went with it are inaccurate and misleading. What has been your experience using xylitol?

      Excruciating constipation. Yes I know it’s supposed to do the opposite. I knew sugar alcohols usually disagree with me, so I limited myself to two gums a day. Even so, couldn’t hack it after 5 days and it took more than a week for my guts to settle down.

      I use erythritol which got the same bad rap as xylitol. I swish a teaspoon of the granules for five to 20 minutes a couple times per day and then spit it out. That's not due to the questionable heart studies, but because (xylitol and) erythritol gives me digestive issues. By the way, erythritol is said to test better than xylitol for its anti-cavity effects.

      Since I live alone, I don’t have to talk to anyone, so I do xylitol pulling (granulated xylitol powdered up via a spice grinder) for 5 minutes in the morning, after breakfast, when I’m getting ready for the day. 5 minutes is no issue for me at all.

    Thank you for coming forward as a dentist talking about the positive effects of xylitol on our teeth. I had major gingivitis and had lost several teeth. Since I started using xylitol in my morning coffee then using the gum after each meal, or light snack. I would do a xylitol mouth rinse before bed.In only 5 months later all my gingivitis was gone including gum pockets.
    I totally regained control of the bad bacteria and now have bridges attached to stronger bone and teeth that replace the ones I lost. Parents give your this xylitol gum to your kids after every meal and day at school.

      You obviously did not listen to her video!!!
      We are all here to learn. However you have to listen and follow the directions. I am doing Dr. Phillips protocol. However, I do get high blood pressure from doing the mouth wash. One I do not use that much now and I water it down. Two I believe there are many other products out there that are better and I will substitute, however, I needed something immediately therefore I started it immediately. Xylitol works great in the right amounts. I personally do it 3 times a day. It works for me.
      I have done this protocol for 5 days now and I only do the listerine 1 time a day. My teeth feel fantastic. I had wisdom tooth extracted is healing great. I started this program so my gums and bone will heal correctly grow back as it should. I have zero intention of getting implants for anything like that. I will live with my life choices to date. However I do want to stop anymore dental work from
      Being needed.
      Carnivore diet is something you should look into for both of you. It heals teeth as well. I am a dirty carnivore. Lol I am not 100% yet. I know I need to do no dairy which is difficult for me right now. I will get there.
      We have been lied to about everything. We are all here trying to find our way in the madness! My daughter will be 27 and if I had to do it all over again, I would start using xylitol and inulin because both feed our good microbiome. I would also forego any vaccinations period!!
      It is hard to work through the ins and outs when you have 10 people saying do this and 19 saying do that. The best point she made was telling you how much the trial was using! 30 instead of the recommended 5. You have to ask why would they do this??? The answer is to stop people, from using it because Big Pharma doesn’t make money on healthy people!
      As with any medication and doing any supplements, you always always always do the 2 hours apart!!! I promise you watch a few carnivore videos . Type in carnivore diet healed crohns. You will be surprised.
      Baby steps go a long ways. I bet you will find he will benefit from xylitol and insulin because it does kill off the bad microbiome. It balance the gut. So many ways to look at it.i am sorry but being on prescription drugs is never going to cure him. Best wishes!!!

    Started using xylitol about 3 moths ago. I changed to a fluoride free tooth paste with xylitol. I stated chewing xylitol mint chewing gum. This last month I have been using xylitol sugar to both brush my teath last thing at night and I also use a very small pinch at night if I wake with a dry mouth. It makes my saliva run and no more dry mouth. This men’s I am sleeping better as I am not drinking loads of water at night and then waking up needing to pee. have been low carb for a few years. On low carb my gum health had improved.
    Just got back from a routine dentist appointment, my dentist was very impressed with my teepee use as my teath were very clean. I haven’t used a teepee since my last appointment, I have also started using a very soft child’s tooth brush. I didn’t tell her.
    She measured my gum health all my gum measurements have improved. She said my gums are very stable and she seemed very impressed by my teeth care.
    Wonderful to find something that works so well that also tastes really lovely.

    Great presentation. Thank you for the support of Xylitol, and your review of this awful study. The interesting thing was that they applied for permission to test 5 g of Xylitol in addition to the 30 g.. either they decided not to do that in the study which is unusual and odd, or they discovered it had no effect and then did not publish it, which would, as you know, be unethical and grounds for investigation. The study was funded by private equity which is always a red flag.

    Another fascinating option is to add xylitol granules to your toothpaste (if it's not already added). Then when you rinse, the residual xylitol goes bye-bye along with the toothpaste! This way, you get even less than 5g per day. Similarly, where the mints or gum are recommended (they often have questionable additives), simply toss a quarter-teaspoon of xylitol in your mouth, enjoy the cooling sensation for about two to three minutes, then spit it out. (HINT: there is organic granular xylitol available!)

    • @EvolveDentalHealing

    As a daily xylitol consumer, 5 grams per day seems too low. I prefer 2-4 grams per serving, and more can be used as well if you use it as a mouthwash and spit it out (i dont water rinse after.
    Also, while I think I agree with what you said, there was one thing I considered while watching this; how toxic for the body is xylitol compared to high amounts of processed sugar? Its not really too difficult for someone to eat 30-60+ grams of sugar in one serving. I try to keep my sugar intake at around 10-30 grams per day. It has made my undiagnosed longterm bloodsugar issues much more manageable.

I’ve read that for arterial health it is detrimental to use anti bacterial mouth washes that kill off all bacteria because that would inhibit the vital first stages of nitric oxide production which occurs in the mouth. Since oral bacteria is necessary to convert dietary nitrate into nitrite, which is then further reduced to nitric oxide. QUESTION: Does xylitol kill off the good bacteria?

      @EvolveDentalHealing  2 месяца назад +3

    • @EvolveDentalHealing
      @EvolveDentalHealing  25 дней назад +1

      you use it after eating or snacking. If you want to use it as part of your oral hygiene routine you can. It's generally recommended to use xylitol products after brushing your teeth, especially at night. This allows the xylitol to have maximum contact with your teeth and gums, helping to reduce harmful bacteria and promote oral health.
      Here's a breakdown of why:
      Nighttime Use: Brushing your teeth removes food particles and plaque, creating a clean surface for the xylitol to work its magic. Using xylitol afterward helps to inhibit the growth of bacteria that can cause cavities and gum disease while you sleep.
      Daytime Use: You can use xylitol products throughout the day, such as xylitol gum or mints, after meals or snacks to help neutralise acids and prevent plaque buildup.

    My experience with Xylitol:
    I found that using 1 teaspoon of xylitol crystal with a little water and mouthwashing for 5 minutes, then spitting it out and not drinking for 1 hour, was more effective in removing tartar from my teeth than using xylitol chewing gum.
    What do you think about my method ? 1 teaspoon xylitol mixed with 2 teaspoon of water, mouthwash for 5 minutes, spit it out ( Don't want to swallow Xylitol) , and do not drink during 1 hour ?

      As long as you can keep it in your mouth a couple of minutes to also get minerals from the saliva active then it should work for early cavity repair too

    does it Help with Butyrate in lining of stomach say with Crohn's or IBD or does create butyrate

    • @EvolveDentalHealing
      @EvolveDentalHealing  2 месяца назад

      No, xylitol does not directly create butyrate. Xylitol is a sugar alcohol commonly used as a sweetener. It's metabolised differently than regular sugars, and while it can have some prebiotic effects, it doesn't directly feed the bacteria that produce butyrate.
      Xylitol can indirectly support butyrate production by promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria that may produce butyrate. These bacteria might utilise other dietary fibres or carbohydrates as substrates for butyrate production.

  • @Audrey-r6l
    @Audrey-r6l Месяц назад

    To be fair this study piggybacks the recent studies on another sugar alcohol, erythritol which had similar findings. Also very important to note is that the 30mg of Xylitol is equal to the amount you will find in a soft drink. The Cleveland Clinic is very reputable and I doubt they need to reduce themselves to click bait when reporting their research. Remember that dosing for dental care is quite different and the study was looking at what a typical amount consumed would be intentionally ..as they also correctly noted in the erythritol testing that persons may be drinking more than one diet soda per day. I do want to also remark on your comment that sugared beverages cause insulin resistance and how the Cleveland Clinic did not address this. I don't think they would as the research is not focused on insulin resistance but on how Xylitol can affect your heart. The question for me would be at what dose would these sugar alcohols including Xylitol be safe for consumption if at all.

      Should work, a lot of natural toothpastes have xylitol in them and hydroxyapatite to help strengthen teeth and reduce plaque formation. Brushing works mainly because of the movement of the toothbrush not just what you put on it.

    If I injested 30 grams of any alcohol sugar, I would be sitting on the toilet all day. I didn't have saliva after radiation, until 18 years later I had my rotten teeth removed. I noticed within a week that my saliva came back. My immune system must have been making antibodies to the teeth infections. Teeth gone, antibodies gone. Saliva returned too late for teeth. I can't eat anything chewy with dentures. It dislodges them.

    It affects my tummy before it does anything else. I don't find much benefit ingesting it. I think it's not helpful to the probiotics, which affect many parts of the body. Even the gut bacteria affects brain health and the immune system. Perhaps with large doses the immune system ends up cleaning up abnormal blood resulting from changes to nutrient levels that the body relies on gut bacteria to use properly.
    For my case, my reaction is unfortunate, I was quite hopeful how beneficial it sounded. Not sure if this is just my unique experience or if it's something more people should be aware of, so I think people should generally listen to their body and be the judge of that themselves.
    It's dangerous to some animals too, so pet owners should be cautious with it in their home.

    Dr.Rachel, thank you so much for your educative videos and invaluable information! My relatives and I have been using xylitol for a year and everybody has noticed great results: our dentists agreed that in a year we needed no professional dental cleaning, some of us managed to remineralize their teeth and get rid of initial caries (confirmed by X-rays). I use mainly mints and granular xylitol (just 1/4 tsp after each meal), sometimes gums. I have a question concerning granular xylitol. Do you think that only birch xylitol should be used or xylitol from other plant sources works just as well for teeth?

Places where big interests paid for political campaigns and influence policy….well, that should be self-explanatory. All that being said, I personally have weaned myself off of all sweeteners.

      Hi James I'm not having a go, I eat very low carb for the health benefits it offers as well as intermittent fasting but sadly many don't want to try this or can't sustain it. We only need look around insulin resistance is a major health issue and yet even with a type II diabetes diagnosis people are unwilling to make the lifestyle shifts.
      Tooth decay is rampant and so easily prevented and if diet is an issue then anything we can do to counter that is to be embraced.
      I wish everyone would stop eating processed foods, and refined carbs and yet cost of living is making this so out of reach for so many. Simple keto-like diet, with fat/keto burning actually makes one less hungry and therefore you end up eating less its just that many can't or won't make the transition.
