Dr. Weston Price discovers cure for cavities in 1936: (excerpts from book below)


Dentist Weston Price Discovers the Cure
In 1915 prominent dentist Weston price was appointed as the first research director of the
National Dental Association. A few years later the association changed its name to The
American Dental Association (ADA). In 1936, writing in the Journal Of the American Dental
Association (which is still in publication), Dr. price painted a picture of tooth decay that was
very different from the one we have today. He wrote of people who did not use toothbrushes,
yet were immune to tooth decay.
'All groups having a liberal supply of minerals particularly phosphorus, and a

liberal supply of fat-soluble activators, had 100 per cent immunity to dental

caries.'

Lack of Nutrition is the Cause of Physical Degeneration
Dr. Weston Price realized that something was fundamentally wrong with the way we live and
set out to explore the world to find out what it was. During the 1930s, Dr. Price was able to
document the sharp decline in health experienced by previously healthy people who came
into contact with modern civilization. The revealing findings of Dr. Price, published in his
excellent book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, along with his telling photographs,
bring home the important fact that our modern food and lifestyle are the primary causes of
tooth decay.

The Healthy People of the Loetschental Valley, Switzerland
In 1931 and 1932, Dr. price traveled to the remote Loetschental Valley in the Swiss Alps.
people of the valley lived in harmony with nature, which resulted in a seemingly peaceful
existence. Dr. price wrote Of the superior character and health of these people and the sublime lands of the isolated valleys in the remote Swiss Alps:
"They have neither physician nor dentists because they has so little need for them.  They have neither policeman nor jail because they have no need for them."


Make Your Teeth Strong with Fat- Soluble Vitamins
Dentist Melvin Page followed in the footsteps of Weston Price's findings, and then added the
science of blood testing to his research. Dr. Page believed that it requires a 25% imbalance Of
body chemistry to cause teeth to decay.  After 30 years and 40,000 blood tests, Dr. Page
discovered the biochemical cause of tooth decay and gum disease: a disturbance in the ratio
of calcium to phosphorus in the blood. A ratio Of 8.75mg of calcium per 100CC of blood, and
3-5mg of phosphorus per 100cc of blood, with normal blood sugar levels, creates immunity
to tooth decay. Healthy blood sugar level is 85 milligrams per 100 cc of blood.  When
there are blood sugar spikes, minerals like calcium are pulled from our bones. The
amounts of calcium or phosphorus in the blood deviate from these levels, or if they are not in
the exact proportion of 2.5 parts calcium to one part phosphorus, minerals are withdrawn
from the tooth or other tissues, resulting in tooth decay or gum disease or both.
Dr. Page wrote:
"It takes a continued low level of phosphorus, over a period of several months, to deplete the
dentin of its mineral structure. "

Amazingly Dr. price also believed that phosphorus was the essential and vital mineral for
perfect teeth. Dr. Page's tests reveal the biochemical nature of what we saw in Dr. Price's
photographs and observations. The rapid decline in health of native peoples subsisting on a
modern diet is chiefly the result of not enough available calcium and phosphorus in the
blood.

How to Heal Cavities Naturally

The world is slowly waking up to the fact that, when you give the body what it needs, it can heal things we previously thought were impossible. A fine example of what is often deemed as an incurable health problem is dental cavities, but extensive research is now becoming more public about the true nature of tooth decay and the fact that there are proven remedies that can remedy it.
The lies perpetrated about tooth decay
According to the American Dental Association, the reason we have tooth decay is as follows:
“[Tooth decay] occurs when foods containing carbohydrates (sugars and starches) such as milk, pop, raisins, cakes or candy are frequently left on the teeth. Bacteria that live in the mouth thrive on these foods, producing acids as a result. Over a period of time, these acids destroy tooth enamel, resulting in tooth decay.”

There are a few problems with this theory, including:
• Groups of indigenous people who had fermentable carbohydrates stuck on their teeth all the time that did not brush or floss were mostly or completely free of tooth decay.
• Bacteria do not consume processed sugar or flour because of the lack of nutrients in them.
• Foods that bacteria like to eat, such as milk, vegetables, meat, fish and fruit, are not commonly implicated in causes of tooth decay.
So if the modern explanation of tooth decay is not accurate, what is actually the cause of tooth decay?

What actually causes tooth decay
Tooth decay, as researched by Dr. Weston Price and other dental pioneers, boiled down to three factors:
• Not enough minerals in the diet.
• Not enough fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) in the diet.
• Nutrients not being readily bioavailable, and your intestinal system not properly absorbing them. The presence of phytic acid largely influences this factor.
Over a period of time, if your diet lacks vitamins and minerals from a poor diet and/or contains high levels of phytates (from grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes), the blood chemistry and the ratio of calcium and phosphorous become out of balance, which results in minerals being pulled from bones, causing tooth and bone loss.
So, the long-standing belief that sugar causes tooth decay is true, but as a result of it depleting nutrients from the body, not because bacteria eat it and produce acid that ruins your teeth.

The food remedies that can heal cavities and tooth decay
In order to restore the ratio of calcium and phosphorus in our blood, and to enable minerals to bond to our teeth, it is not enough to just avoid eating too many sweet or processed foods. We must also eat health-building foods, containing copious amounts of minerals and vitamins that will build a glassy hard tooth structure.
Foods to focus on are:
• Coconut oil, grass-fed organic dairy (especially butter), grass-fed meats, seafood and bone broths.
• Organic cooked vegetables (soups with bone broth are ideal).
• Organ and gland meats, like liver.
Limit foods that are high in phytic acid, like grains, beans, nuts and seeds, as well as limiting processed food intake full of processed flours and sugars that upset blood sugar balance.
Supplements to consider are:
• Fermented cod liver oil – very high in fat soluble vitamins A, D and K.
• Magnesium – required to use calcium and phosphorous effectively.
• Gelatin – if you don’t have time to make bone broth, this is a good alternative and is great for gums and digestion.
Now go get your pearly white smile back.
