Summary: <p>In this video, I’m going to show you how to make natural toothpaste to help eliminate tartar and prevent it from coming back.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Tartar is a calcified, pale, yellow, hard substance that accumulates on your teeth. It can lead to gingivitis as well as bad breath. Tartar is made up of a colony of bacteria that survives in something called a biofilm. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Biofilms contain bacteria, fungi, yeast, and candida. Tartar biofilms ferment carbohydrates in your mouth and release lactic acid, which can leach away your calcium and cause cavities. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Many ancient cultures used natural toothpaste, but these recipes were very abrasive and wore down the teeth. </p> <p><br></p> <p>This homemade toothpaste recipe is far more gentle yet still effective at removing plaque. To make this toothpaste, combine the following ingredients:</p> <p><br></p> <p>•3 drops of either clove oil, peppermint oil, or cinnamon oil, or a pinch of turmeric powder </p> <p>•¼ teaspoon hydrogen peroxide </p> <p>•¼ teaspoon baking soda</p> <p>•¼ teaspoon raw honey or manuka honey </p> <p>•½ cup water </p> <p><br></p> <p>Mix these ingredients and brush your teeth with the mixture using a soft bristle toothbrush twice per day.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Vitamin K2 has also shown promising results in removing and preventing tartar buildup.</p> <p><br></p> <p>DATA:</p> <p><a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0002817717308127" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.sciencedirect.com/science...</a></p> <p><a href="https://vibrantblueoils.com/essential-oils-for-biofilms/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://vibrantblueoils.com/essential...</a></p> <p><a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16297309/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16297...</a></p> <p><br></p>
