Thank you so much Dr Marbas, I immediately forget what the acronyms you use mean so it would be helpful if you could remind us in your show notes or in a pinned comment, thank you. Hope your dental issues will get better. I really regret not looking after my teeth properly when I was younger and if I'm honest, throughout my life. I had good teeth but my relatives kept giving me sweets, this is really bad, I know they meant well but encouraging a child's sweet tooth can lead to dental problems as well as food addiction. My dentist keeps telling me to stop eating acidic foods like tomatoes, vinegar, lemon juice or fruit but they're so much part of a WFPB way of eating so the best I can do is to wash everything down with a big mug of tea or coffee after my meal and then brush my teeth about an hour later.

Glad it was helpful!

You poor thing! Omg, what you’ve described is what I’ve gone through bc of military dentists. (My father was career military.) I have severe TCMJ. (I believe that’s how it’s spelled.) They extracted a lot of permanent teeth bc they said my jaw was too small for all the teeth. So I feel for you. I’ve had so many root canals…………..and they get some kind of inflammation and need antibiotics. I’ve also noticed that my body continually attacks my thyroid. I know I have Hashimotos, but I thought at some point I could get my body to stop attacking the thyroid? Isn’t that possible with a plant based/vegan diet?

Fortunately, it's rare to find a military base that treats family members anymore.
