Water
I’m going to start with water. I had a child go to the ER because they did not drink enough water and they appeared very sick. After getting water, they were fine. Most people do not have enough water in their body. A person’s body gets used to not having enough water and it will feel hungry instead of thirsty. One of the first things a hospital will usually do is give you water through your blood vessels. If you are always tired even though you get enough sleep, have dry eyes, dry mouth, constipation, or dark urine (should be no darker than lemon aid, it will be a little darker in the morning after sleeping), you are not drinking enough water. If your urine looks like water, you are probable drinking too much. Water affects everything from digestion to the kidneys and the heart.
So, how much water should you drink? Take your body weight in pounds and divide it in half. That is how many ounces of water you should drink per day. If your sick or sweating a lot, you will need more.
Find out how many ounces of water fit inside your favorite drinking container and how many times you will have to fill it to get your water. Then use any way that is useful to you for remembering to drink the water. Some people do not like straight water. My wife likes to add a few pieces of frozen fruit to her water. Research shows up to 5 cups of tea or coffee or pop (without phosphoric acid) are fine [ref]. Pop is fine as long as it does not have “phosphoric acid,” which take away your calcium (eats your bones) [ref]. You will actually feel better if you can limit and even eliminate the caffeine as well, but that is less important unless you are getting a lot of caffeine, which is not good for you at all [ref]. With the increase in water, for 2 weeks you will feel like you are going to the bathroom all the time. Then your body gets used to it and goes back to normal. You will find you have more energy, are less tried, can think clearer, and feel thirsty instead of hungry when your body needs water.
There is an article from WhyAlive about what “Water” represents in the Bible found HERE.
Praying the LORD helps you to get enough water.
Teeth
Next is teeth. Why? This is an area I’ve had the longest journey with. We don’t really think of how important our teeth are until we start to lose or lose one or more. We can value each tooth at $3000 or more. This is how much it takes for a root canal. The teeth are our tools to eat and live. And they help in producing the sounds when we speak. In a way, we work to eat. So, that helps at least me to look at my teeth as quite valuable. I have tried many different things to help keep my teeth. To me, it didn’t make since that we have all this dental stuff and no matter what, me and my family would get cavities or worse. People had teeth and seemed to do fine before the current tooth care system. So, I tried ancient ways and different current way, nothing was working. So, I gave up and told the LORD I didn’t know what I was doing, I can not take of my body or teeth, I need your help if you want me to take care of this body YOU loaned out to me. That prayer was said in my mind, so no one but the LORD heard it. I think is was within 1 hour I had a video sent to me that had to do with teeth, and the next 2 days 2 videos were sent to me about the body. So, let us go through the tooth one first. The video was of an older successful dentist that didn’t normally fill her patients cavities, but reversed the cavities. This was new to me. No one else I had every studied claimed to reverse cavities. So, I listen to many of her videos. Some are very long. She was explaining why like coconut oil pulling does work, but it kills the good and the bad bacteria leaving the teeth unprotected and without a protective biolayer. Anyway, her system works, answer to prayer, praise be to our Lord and King. The next part is the list of items and how to use them, so you don’t have to watch the 1 hour video. The video will be listed below at the end for those who want to see it.
Do not try to get cheaper items, they are not made the same (be very careful when buying, the labels look almost the same for different products). Different items sometimes have more water, and you are paying for the water. Ph is a big deal, and different items have different everything. I have listed below the cheapest way I have found to buy these items. Walmart.com prices are way better than Amazon.com.
This dentist said she and her whole family never floss and do not get cavities. I still floss for my first step.
CloSYS Ultra Sensitive Mouthwash (2 pack-cheapest way to buy)
CloSYS Ultra Sensitive Mouthwash (single bottle-less money at first, but more expensive in the long run)
1st step: Swish this mouthwash in your mouth for 1 minute. I use one teaspoon full.
Crest regular toothpaste (3 tubes = $1.66 per tube)
(otherwise just pick up a tube at any store)
2nd Step: Massage gums and brush teeth a little. Use about 1-2 pea size worth of paste.
Listerine original
(same price at the store as well. This is the big bottle. You can get the little bottle, it just cost more in the end. In the video she said you can also use cool mint, but it doesn’t work as well and it has food coloring.)
3rd Step: Swish this mouthwash in your mouth for 1 minute. You want to swish this through your teeth. It used to be call liquid floss. I use one teaspoon full.
(Warning: when you use this mouthwash for the first time it will burn bad. You may only be able to use it for 5 seconds. That is OK. The video states this is because you don’t have a protective biolayer. It burns for about the 1st 3 days of use, then it tapers off until in 2 weeks it become a slight burn. After you go to the dentist, they strip all the biolayer, so it will burn again.)
Act mouthwash (2 pack)
(This bottle is tricky, there is a bigger bottle that looks the same that is full of water)
(The active ingredient of sodium fluoride should be 0.05%)
4st Step: Swish this mouthwash in your mouth for 1 minute. I use one teaspoon full.
(This mouthwash gets rid of any burning of the last mouthwash. This mouthwash has food coloring. This 4 step system gets your saliva going of which you want your teeth to bath in saliva that is ph balanced. So, I just spit out the first amount of saliva, this seems to get rid of most of the food coloring. Food coloring that is used in the USA is outlawed in other countries. It is not good for your physical or mental health. The saliva re-mineralizes your teeth that literally regrow from your saliva. This also means you need to be eating somewhat healthy for your teeth to get what they need from your saliva.)
5th Step: Do not eat or drink for 1-2 hours after doing the steps above. Your teeth need that time to be in ph balanced saliva.
Repeat the steps above every 12 hours.
(Certain bacteria start to regrow after 12 hours.)
Final and best step: After eating food or snacks, you need to finish with a small piece of a finishing food that neutralizes the acid in your mouth. The foods that do this are cheese, celery, apple, avocado, strawberry, raspberries, or 1/8 teaspoon of Xylitol held in the mouth for 1 minute. (Xylitol is the natural sugar from strawberries and raspberries.) (I just put this sugar in a small jar with a 1/8 teaspoon in the houses, cars, and bags so it is always available. You can also use 100% Xylitol mints (Click HERE). They taste good, but are expensive. We use them when we travel.
(The acid is what breaks your teeth down. Bacteria make that acid, but even if you kill them, acid from food and the bacteria in food making acid can break down teeth.)
For children that are not old enough to do the mouthwash. This dentist recommends putting a little Xylitol sugar on your finger and rubbing onto baby teeth or a little sugar on a toothbrush and just getting the sugar in their mouth. If you can bush a little, good, if not, that is ok because the sugar will go throughout their mouth. Do this after meals and at bedtime.
I know that is a little bit. But, I would rather never have go to the dentist. And, the pain from a cavity that reaches to the center of the tooth is very bad. Praying the LORD helps you to take care of your teeth no mater what you chose to do.
