				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Specialized cells in the center of the tooth are able to regenerate dentin, the layer of tooth just under the enamel, and the enamel can then properly remineralize from the outside. This same process happens in bones when phytic acid is removed from the diet and minerals/fat soluble vitamins are added.</p>
<p>To prove this theory, the Drs. Mellanby did a study on children with existing cavities. The children were put into three groups:</p>
<ul>
<li>Group One: Regular diet plus oatmeal (which is high in phytic acid)</li>
<li>Group Two: Regular diet plus vitamin D</li>
<li>Group Three: Diet low in phytic acid plus vitamin D.</li>
</ul>
<p>This is what they found:</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-1761" title="phytic acid causes cavities" src="http://wellnessmama.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/phytic-acid-causes-cavities.png" alt="grains cause cavities and bone loss" />\</p>
<p>The group consuming phytic acid with no supplemental vitamin D continued to get cavities with little to no healing. The group that just supplemented Vitamin D showed some healing, but also got some new cavities. The group consuming no phytic acid and supplementing Vitamin D showed very few new cavities and actually had many existing cavities heal!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There seems to be quite a bit of disinformation out there on the Interwebs as to the impact of activated charcoal (AC) on your tooth enamel.  There is an easy scientific way for anyone to arrive at the conclusion that your tooth enamel will remain cleaned, whitened, and completely smoothly intact after it&#8217;s brief skirmish with a brush loaded with AC.</p>
<p>The <b>Mohs scale</b> of substance <b>hardness</b> is a scientific qualitative ordinal <b>scale</b> which characterizes the scratch resistance of various minerals through the ability of a harder material to scratch a softer material.   You&#8217;ve all heard or read that a diamond is the &#8216;hardest&#8217; substance on earth.  What does this mean exactly?  It means that on the mohs scale which runs from 1 to 10 a diamond is a 10.  The diamond can scratch every other substance and nothing can scratch it.  At the bottom of the scale is talc coming in at 1.  It can scratch nothing else.</p>
<p>Now where does the enamel of your tooth lie on the mohs scale?  it comes in around 5 on the scale and again, a lower number does not scratch a higher number.   Where does activated charcoal come in on the scale?  It rates at around a 2 meaning it cannot possibly scratch healthy tooth enamel.   Sodium Bicarbonate also has a light abrasive quality and comes in around a 2.5 on the scale.   Therefore, they are good for removing the soft material on the surface of the tooth without scratching it.</p>
