10:45 Gum recession. I had gum recession and bone loss. The dentist tool measures 1-5. 1 & 2 are normal. 3 is bad. 4-5 are considered irreversible. I had a bunch of 3's, 4's, and 5's. I reversed all of it and got back to all 1's and 2's. How? Fasting. I fasted 5 consecutive days at the start of every month for a year. At the end of the year, I'd regenerated all the lost bone and gum.
Are you serious? I use to fast a lot. I was on a keto diet. I was only 103 lbs but I have osteopenia. I was 50 doing gymnastics now I’m 57 and I’ve all but given up. I tried the carnivore diet but I had no energy & my sleep was horrible. I went back on fruits so I could sleep. I started sleeping great but I know all the sugar can’t be good for me. I have gum recession really bad & bone loss in my jaw. I love coffee but it’s hard to drink it black. Do you drink coffee? Today I’m 115 lbs 5’ tall
Were you cold too? If you couldn't sleep and had no energy that sounds like you weren't eating enough fat. Try adding 100grams of butter to your first meal and 100grams of beef fat trimmings at the end of your second or 3rd meal. That is an extra 1800 calories of food so it may be too much if you already eat over 2500 calories a day. But if you were only eating 1000 calories then 1800 should be fine for most people.
@@PureTruth Ahhh... I wish that was true. My kids knew. They made other choices. I never had it in my home when they were growing up but they do grow up. They get to an age when you just do not have much control over what they eat. I made healthy meals but they would not eat it half the time. It sucks.
Some mothers want their kids to have the same issues like them or worse, because they think...i have to suffer with my teeth and now they are ugly and i want my child also to suffer, because they would not like to see their kids more happy, healthy, with bright good teeth and health. They want to have power and control over their kids. My mother wanted the same for me and worse, than her, because i realized she was competing with me at some point. She sabotaged my hole life, healthwise included. So now we are both complaning in bitterness about our same issues and myself worser even. She feels better about herself it seems, when i do not succeed. And when i succeed its her acomlishment. Even tho she never was doing anything for me in my childhood. I grew up with her and she gave me no breastfeeding ( scared her breast would hang ). Baby formula. Later i drank only milk, chocolatmilk. Ate Nutella every day with bread. 4x a year some fruit Never meat, real butter, real fish, nuts. 1 egg a week Cookies for breakfast, evening. Sometines pottoes 2x week. Go figure i survived, but was chronically ill, with all kind of issues and i am surprized she thinks she did good.😂
I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I have gone to a dentist. My last experience was horrible. He asked when was the last time I saw a dentist. I said about 17 years ago! He was not pleased by that answer. The hygienist proceeded to clean my teeth. Both the dentist and hygienist were both commenting on the lack of plaque, no cavities, and one cavity stopped the process of decaying. Then the dentist took over, he began cleaning my teeth by the time he got done I was in such pain from his cleaning. The pain lasted that whole day plus two more days. Obviously, he was quite annoyed by the way I cared for my teeth. I had developed 4 cavities in my late teens, when I began drinking soda. I noticed the correlation, so I stopped drinking soda. Since that time, I haven't had any cavities. Diet is extremely important in dental health.
I am 54 and rarely go to the dentist. Last time I went all she did was try to sell me stuff with scare tactics...."you need an implant, braces, teeth whitening, etc". Or else all of these bad things are going to happen. My teeth aren't perfect, but not crooked...if nothing hurts, and my gums aren't bleeding then I have no need for a dentist. Ketovore diet here with an occasional cheat ( holidays and such).
@@sta090806 so many dentists are terrible. I routinely embarrassed docs including dentists with alternative cures....I use NEEM toothpaste along with high vit D & k2 doses for 8 years, stopping decay 100%
My husband was diagnosed with a cavity, but told it could wait until the next time. 6 months later the cavity had remineralized... so we are believers. The dentist agreed that could happen but I've never had a dentist admit this up front.
He makes a remineralizing tooth powder and essential oil tooth formula for follow up. Look up Oral wellness for tooth oil, and wellness mama for powder recipe.... he found it years ago and has been using it since.
This is what it looks like to fulfill the Hippocratic Oath. Drs actually caring about the health and well-being of their patients. What a great idea! Good job setting a good example for other drs!
I started having periodontal cleanings with 6 and 7’s a year ago and went carnivore 4 months ago. On my 3rd visit to the dentist all my pockets were3’s. I knew it when I went in and asked the dentist to check them, he asked me what I had done, and told him carnivore. I’ve never smiled so much leaving a dentist. Only good news!
32:10 Dr. Berry does a sumation half way through. 38:57 More info. 42:45 The body can heal cavities. 46:06 What about Floride? 51:38 Wrap it up. 58:03 Sleep Apnea.
@@waleskaaddams LoL if you know they did you should have an idea. Near the beginning and near the end. Also more about the growth of the jaw from vit d and calcium absorption
All my life I’ve been plagued with tender bleeding gums and sensitive loose teeth. No matter how much I brushed and flossed it never improved. Dental cleaning was a blood bath and I was worn out from being tense while the hygienist did her work. Cavities were expected with each visit. 4 years ago I began Keto and since then my teeth and gums have been improving and with each visit my hygienist remarks about how clean my teeth are, and NO cavities.
I work with a holistic dentist as of 4 years ago. We treated my hurting tooth with ozone treatments but 4 years later the pain was in the roof of my mouth. The dentist said it was abscessed and had to come out! The tooth was loose but he ended up having to cut it into pieces to get it out!!! I am devastated!!! It’s humiliating to lose a tooth and now I will pay him $3,000 for a bridge to fill the gap! I am not a candidate for an implant!!! I have cried about this loss so much! It is hard to explain the emotion around losing a good molar!!! I keep thinking that I could have saved it some how and this diet may be how I could have! I really haven’t eaten “bad” for years but not enough of the fatty meats and raw milk. I knew about Weston A. Price for 25 years! Heck i raised four kids on a decent diet that we bought from farmers! I have chickens in my backyard and yet i still lost my tooth!!! I thought by going to a holistic dentist that I was in the clear! Just another reminder that I am the one in charge of my own healthcare. Doctors and dentist are there when I need a tourniquet, if you know what I mean!!! Apologies for the length of this message!!! Thanks for listening, Jen
Meat is toxic to humans... you need fruit... lots of raw fruit! So simple and obvious yet you think you need to eat the decaying flesh of murdered animals... what a joke! Your own story tells you that eating this crap didn't help you... why can't you see the obvious! You ARE in charge of your own healthcare... it's just that you are an ignorant blind muppet dancing to a muppet beat.
The holistic dentist said that it did have an abscess . I trusted him but I asked a to have the tooth that he had to cut in to 3 pieces to take out. The tooth didn’t look bad to me but I am not a trained dental professional. I trusted him to do what was best and I wasn’t doing a root canal bc of the cancer risk associated with such treatment. I can’t live in the past only learn from it. Moving onward and upward!
Feel you! Cried alot myself. Especially to think so much information that is disseminated by many " dental professionals" is entirely misleading, and founded upon falsehoods. Know better. Do better. Hence the word "professional."
This is great for me as a dental hygienist. I often feel useless in helping patients who suffer from periodontal disease or who are very prone to caries. I've always known that diet must play a huge role. 'Brush, floss, try this product, try that'...and they still struggle.
I started a nutrient dense carnivore diet during the pandemic while our dental offices were closed. Just before the pandemic, my dentist had recommended a $6400 dental plan. When I came back a year later, my bone loss had improved, enamel improved, gum disease improved and I no longer needed all the work. He was shocked and asked what I've been doing.
I’ve been feeling so depressed since being diagnosed with mild periodontal disease and prediabetes all in the same week! And my dentist said I probably had prediabetes for quite a while as a lot of prediabetics and diabetics have periodontal disease and I’m just so depressed with all this. Can keto really help gums and regeneration of bone ???
@@silvanapetrozzi7343 it is working for me. You will still need to get some dental work done but you will see huge improvements with dental and diabetes on a proper human diet.
GODSEND! Thank you doctors. 3rd week carnivore here. I used to need to brush twice a day from feeling yucky on SAD diet. Today I brush once and only out of habit, my teeth never get the nasty coating they used to, they are super clean all the time.
Started keto mid August. Carnivore now. Was shocked at the improvement in my dental health!! I couldn't chew anything but soft foods because my teeth were so loose and gum disease so severe. Now I can eat steak!!
I’m feeling so depressed did keto or carnivore improve your gum disease? I’ve been so depressed and anxious since finding out I have mild periodontal disease and I found this out after finding out I was prediabetic and I’m so down about it I can’t even get out of bed in the morning now. I read that with periodontal disease diabetes is harder to control which makes me just want to give up. I don’t have any loose teeth yet but I have some very mild bone loss and I had a deep clean 3 months ago and a follow up yesterday and was told it healed well but I had still some areas at the back with plaque build up! I do my best to clean the back of the teeth but it’s like a never ending battle. Do you think keto would helpive already cut out all sugars and I want to get on top of this and the prediabetes
One of your most informative interviews. I learned a lot. I'm in my 30s and have never vistied a dentist in my life. Never flossed, only brush my teeth if something is stuck between them. Never had a problem, just a small chip from my youth playing contact sports. I eat very high amounts of dairy. Pint of milk per day, tonnes of cheese, butter, cream, kefir, yogurt and even homemade ice cream. I think nutrient deficiencies play a major role in dental health problems. The body takes care of itself if you give it what it needs.
I think this is one of the most important videos I have ever watched on TH-cam. It makes sense that the evidence of malnutrition and poor overall health can be detected in the mouth. The oral health status and its progression may be one of the best indicators of overall health and in which direction it is headed.
I was visiting the dentist every three months because of severe plac and buildup. I had deep pockets. It was never suggested that I quit smoking from my dentist which in hindsight could have made a difference but not likely. On my own initiative I went on keto and natural tooth paste and immediately noticed a huge improvement. I didn’t go back for 3 or more years and just recently went and all is well. Diet made all the difference for me. I’m 72.
I have had gum disease and 3 gum reconstructions. I went on 80% carnivore about a year ago. In my last checkup, my dentist said your gums look great! They have not said that for many years even after the reconstructions.
About a year after I started the Keto diet, at my annual oral exam, I had perfect gums! I was so shocked because my gums were inflamed around my back teeth despite my best efforts since. . . Forever. My gains have held for the last 3 years.
thank you thank you i have been following your advice for about 6 mo I'm 77 male was obese at 212lbs 5-8 I'm now 158 and feel great although a host of issues pad 12 stints past 156 kidney stones in the past 4 heart stints i didn't know any better i have been doing intermittent fasting and keto style and the most amazing thing I'm taking D3 K2 along with other supplements and i can't believe my gingivitis has disappeared no more bleeding gums blood work great sugar 68
Two years ago missed this broadcast, but WOW what a valuable gift of knowledge. Now I know what happened to me and my kids, hope I can improve the dental health of my future grandkids . . . if we’re lucky enough to have them. Thanks Dr. Berry & Dr. Lin!!
Thank you so much for this huge educational video. I’m sending it to my son and daughter in law for raising their children. You men are a wonderful blessing to your viewers.
Thank you Dr Ben. Could you ask Dr Lin to come back and talk about root canals? What to do once you’ve had them? And if better to remove tooth, should one then get an implant? Or leave the hole. Thank you!
Such an important topic!!! I was told I have a possible abscess on a root canal tooth and it needs to be redone although I don’t have any pain etc… I was also playing with the thought of just get an extraction so there won’t be any harmful bacteria anymore… it’s so difficult to get an unbiased info on that topic!
@@keinohrtini as someone who had a root canal and DEAD tooth in my mouth for 20 years, then 2 years ago the infection was so bad the dentist wouldn't let me leave the office without extracting it...NO ONE should get root canals. They are DEAD. Shouldn't leave dead things in the body. Either heal the tooth or have it pulled if a composite filling can't fix it (composite can do more than amalgam, which is 50% mercury/poison anyway).
I’m a registered dental hygienist and yes, I’ve had dentist tell the patient that the decay can recalcify as long as it hasn’t progressed from the enamel into the dentin and you don’t eat sugar and you keep clean.
@@Christine-xs2of what do you do for lunch/dinner or snacks? I do meat heavy meals for my little one but I struggle with variety. I still have it in my head my toddler needs "fun" stuff to eat other than just meat
@@slee7991 i completely understand it. So my menu is really simple. Rotate all different kinds of meats but more heavy on beef. No concept of snacks in my home. Kids don’t usually get hungry since they eat mostly protein and fat. For school now, i bring beef jerkies. Since my kids are healthy, I still give them some fruits and low oxalate veggies but not for me and my husband.
@@DodgeChic69 beef, cream, eggs and veg. I also eat pork and the rare bird. Seed oils are in almost every packaged food. It's not that I never eat starch, when I do I confined that to a one meal day.
Thank you, Dr. So glad I found you. I matched this with my young daughter. I had a lifetime of bad teeth and I want her to avoid what I’ve gone through. Thank you!!
I wish i knew sugar, refine flours, and seed fats cause cavaties. My daughter and I have been eating this diets for the past 30+ years. Its a shame our own dentist dr did not advise us to avoid it to prevent cavaties. Disease are caused by foods.
Dr Berry AND Dr Lin - wow! This RDH has hit the jackpot of inspiring experts in my life in this video! Dr Lin has inspired me to go beyond the standard nutrional message of sugar-bacteria-acid= cavities and educate about fat soluble vitamins and more. Personally, I am following the Canviore diet upgraded from Keto. (I had the hardest time balancing my electrolytes on Keto; no leg cramping at all now on Carnivore and energy all day.) Thank you both for all you do to help people live healthy.
This was exceptional. It's so disturbing what ISN'T shared. I had a mouthful of cavities growing up (as did my brother and sister) and crooked teeth (grateful our parents got us orthodontic care) and also had our wisdom teeth removed. My parents could probably own a second home with what they spent on our oral care. Who knew wisdom teeth weren't supposed to be pulled?! It all makes sense now. My mind is blown.
Have they mentioned anything specific about the wisdom teeth other than the early jaw development at the very end of the video? Could you please give the time stamp ?
@@pianofortewithreshmimeleth3563 Look at 28:07 (click on the timestamp under "Chapters" above). I can't recall if all the wisdom teeth explanation is there, but they definitely talk about it (and how jaw bone isn't developed enough for the wisdom teeth. In most cases (in a healthy child who eats right), it should be.
@@rochellet7303 thank you for the time stamp. Unfortunately, it is only pointing out how to develop strong jaws for kids and prevent future problems but nothing for adults 😞
@@pianofortewithreshmimeleth3563 There is information out there, if you look up Dr. Mike Mew, about getting jaws to grow, but it will take too long and not present enough results to aid in serious problems for adults. It WILL, however, help cure sleep apnea, along with exercises for that, and using a wedge pillow at night.
My back teeth were hurting from grinding teeth at night due to stress, I'm a caretaker and work from home too. After being carnivore for 11 days, the TMJ is much better and pain from all the 'comforting' sweets I was eating is TOTALLY gone! Sugar is not a comfort when your teeth hurt from eating so much, cake, ice cream, donuts, whatever soothed me emotionally. This is for me. I knew sugar was the problem with pain, cavity development, exhaustion, major weight gain and sedentary work, etc. I started at 218lbs and 5'8", haven't weighed yet and won't until it's been 3 or 6 months. I'm excited for how I'll look and feel a year from now. This is a true blessing. Anytime I think of going back, I remind myself that my Dad has dementia, I don't want that for my health, sugar is def part of that problem.
Chronic stress is a contributing pillar to tooth decay that is rarely touched upon. Four-plus decades of narcissistic abuse resulted in a litany of cascading health conditions. Provided one is taking appropriate care, guidance, and suggested interventions, the body cannot heal, let alone survive when cortisol levels are permanently elevated.
Just sent this to my dad's wife, she's a dentist and orthodontist working in Spain, wish it was in Spanish too, I'll try to translate this for her and for sure tell her to get his book, thanks for all the information to you both, great as always. 🙏
We need to keep our wisdom teeth. Their agenda behind removing them is to cut us off from our hearts ( we become less loving n empathetic) because the wisdom teeth are connected to the heart meridian. We need them.
Part of the issue of misaligned teeth is that if babies are bottle fed in their first year, they will most likely need braces later. The muscles in the jaw are not developed when the baby is bottle fed. Then when the teeth come in, the jaw is not shaped to have them come in straight. There’s not enough room. Breastfeeding helps to develop those muscles and the teeth come in straight and there’s room for all of them.
I agree but that is why there is myofunctional therapy which trains kids to have a proper tongue swallow plus proper tongue posture.that shit is expensive for something that we should be doing naturally. The worst part is when kids grow up and realize they were doing everything wrong their whole life.
My daughter was breast fed for a year and we were really careful with food and she didn't have sunblock but her front teeth were still crooked and she needed braces. Our son, 2 years older, no problems...
My dentist will not treat cavities until they are more severe. He has been watching some of mine for a few years. Maybe now that I am keto/low carb, they will heal themselves.
Hey Ken! I always wondered why archaelogical teeth were ALWAYS bright & shiny & with hardly ANY cavities at all, even after these bones & teeth had been buried in the earth for years! It was fantastic to hear Dr. Lin. He has confirmed what you have been saying about the carnivore diet - It's good for your body AND your teeth! Dr. Lin must be just a stone's throw away from where I live - he may even be a neighbour! Thanks for this!
My gums stopped bleeding during flossing 2 weeks after reducing carbs. That made me start keto because I thought if it can do this to the outside of my body, there has to be more benefits on the inside of my body.
Yes! It causes the body to stop sending minerals to the teeth just like blood sugar spikes! I'm convinced that a course of antibiotics years ago and chronic major stress have wreaked havoc on my teeth.
One of the first things I noticed when I went keto years ago was that I have no plaque on my teeth, even at the end of the day. My dentist tells me I'm his most boring patient because I never have anything wrong with my teeth!
I enjoyed the book! Great read! Same dietary vitamins as cardiovascular health (A, D3, K2) although beta carotene and CoQ10 are also required for cardiovascular health. Beta carotene is in grass fed butter. The book helped me further understand the importance of liver, fish and butter. Thank you!!
@@cupidok2768 it's a conversation it's normal, You'll have to say "video too long" if you want to stick to your though, principal info for sake.😅 But thanks for your evaluation, it's good for the algorithm.
Too late for me on keeping wisdom teeth; all four of them came in at a 90 degree angle and were impacted, badly affecting all my other teeth. Had to have them removed 25 years ago, and sure don't miss the pain the impaction was causing. My new dentist told me in June that my teeth are in excellent health (I'm a 70 y.o. woman), and he had to do only one tiny filling of the tooth I've always referred to as my "problem child" because of the tiny hole up behind it that has to be filled about once every 18 to 20 years. I have a friend who loves---LOVES--to eat many desserts, she and her family, and she had to go through real torture earlier this year to get her two lower incisors taken care of. Many appointments, extremely painful cleanings, reconstructions, etc., and she can finally say her teeth are now secure in her gums---but she will not listen when I tell her her issues are diet related, and that the problems will come back if she doesn't stop with the heavy sugar use. She's 49, I'm 70, and she can't understand why my teeth are so healthy (ketovore for the last 3 1/2 years, no sugars!). Wish she'd pay attention, but I can't force her, and her husband would never tolerate her not making desserts and sweet snacks for (the family) every day 🙄.
Maybe you could prepare a keto desert for her? This may convince her to go ahead with a low carb diet. You don't need to necessarily give up desserts while on keto.
I wish I knew this years ago! I have had my first good dental checkup in years after going keto for a year. I still have significant tartar buildup but my gum health is so much improved. Why didn’t the ADA know about this?
I saw Dr. Lin on a video seminar about oral health. Very personable. We could have saved mucho bucks on our kids’ orthodontics if we had known this back when. Hoping all my family will be carnivore soon.
I had a dentist tell me my cavities were so small they would lightly sand blast them and let them heal on their own. It was in 1999. I haven't had any tooth issues since so I assume they healed.
@@TamilArasi-bx8oe change your diet like they say in the video. Get the minerals, vitamins, and nutrients you need. Oil pulling can help. The Japanese have a remineralizing toothpaste if you can find it. It also depends on your enamel. Grey enamel means your teeth look better, more white. Yellow enamel looks less pleasant but it is harder and less cavity prone according to my sis in laws dentist. Good luck.
Edit: OMG you were right!! Now my dental hygienist told me that Sensodyne only relieves sensitivity but its usage alone is not enough to prevent cavities by itself 😭She told be the best is to mainly use Colgate, which is more efficient at killing bad bacterias!!! Now she recommends Sensodyne only a few times a week. I have a dentist in Montreal, Canada who saw a cavity on my last molar and told me to be more careful about that spot during brushing. He said there was no point to fill it yet since there is still a chance for my dentin to remineralize itself if i clean it well with sensodyne toothpaste and in fact, it’s been almost a year now and that cavity has stopped progressing
The problem with the pain-killing chemical in Sensodyne is that they fill the microscopic holes in your enamel like spackling, which makes it harder to remineralize, according to Dr. Ellie, a dentist from Rochester NY. I don’t use her protocol anymore but now use a non-fluoride toothpaste without the sensitivity ingredient. I no longer have sensitive teeth that have plagued me for 25 years!
@@SabineLeppanen_Art I finally switched completely to Colgate after my dental hygienist explained that Sensodyne doesn't eliminated all the bad bacterias...she recommended me Colgate as a regular toothpaste....and wow I saw a big improvement in my gums. Also, my teeth's sensitvity to cold is almost non-existent. May I ask you what brand of toothpaste you are using? That's amazing that you were able to eliminate sensitive teeth!!
@@thdmlnt5258 it’s called Himalaya Botanique. It doesn’t taste as good as Sensodyne or Colgate but it doesn’t have fluoride, which is important to me for the sake of my thyroid. The taste is not terrible. My teeth were even sensitive to air before I started using Sensodyne. The dentist would paint a substance on them which helped for a little while. Finally I was told to rub Sensodyne onto my molars and gums before brushing because the soft toothbrush was excruciating in a few spots. I used Sensodyne for many years, never rinsing it out as I was taught. I shudder to think how many chemicals and fluoride I must have absorbed through the tissue in my mouth. I used a toothpaste from my local health food store which contained the same de-sensitizing chemical but no fluoride (the lady at the health food store told me they would not carry any items with fluoride because it’s harmful to the thyroid). That worked as well as Sensodyne for the sensitivity but then I decided to try going without it…and no more sensitivity. I am sure it was the almost-carnivore diet, as my gums are in great shape now, too. I am almost 68. I have now weaned myself, very slowly, off my thyroid med and feel better than ever.
@@SabineLeppanen_Art woah! I am taking note about the fluoride aggravating the thyroid issue :O!! I am not surprise that your diet also has a positive impact on your gums and teeth's health since meat isn't acidic and doesn't stick to teeth like carbs
My wife and her father have the most amazing teeth. He is in his 70’s and both of them never had any cavities even though they eat plants, carbs snd sugar. Zero problems. I on the other hand had multiple cavities. I was on Keto for over the year and I noticed that even though I have changed my diet my gums were still bleeding when flossing. It occurred to me that this is some kind of deficiency. I cut down on plants and increased eating meat. There is improvement.
My wife and I can't eat the same thing. Don't think you have to. I think you have figured that out. We are type O + and - her and I. Are their blood types different than you. I bet so. Keep at it
I stopped carbs two weeks ago. I'm a nose breather for the first time in decades. I'm weening my kid off carbs. I let him have deliberate sweets in the early part of the day. On those occasions. Done with grains breads pasta etc. He likes meat and eggs and cheese.
@@johnnytsunami3558 I am thoroughly convinced that carnivore is the right eating style for me. I visited my sister in the summer and ate pizza and sad. Gained twenty pounds and lost it within a 2 or 3 week visit. I also ate sad over the holidays and felt terrible. I have been able to directly correlate eating carbs with feeling terrible on individual occasions. Carbs, at my age, are like drinking liquor. I have had occasions where habit overruled sense where I ate something. Usually when I didn't pack enough lunch, or when I felt stressed. Whenever I realize what I'd done, I take vitamins and take anti inflammatory and allergy medicines until I can get my body back to right in carnivore. I got upset at something a few days ago and I don't remember what I ate, but I did a complete 24 hour fast, ate beef last night and I am barely back into ketosis. I'll probably have another day of Advil Sinus and Zyrtec and vitamin B, C, etc. and Zinc. Until I get my body back to carnivore chemistry. I am doing well. The diet works perfectly when I do it. My knees don't hurt and my nose doesn't run. Last year my job was more stable, I could get up early and drink a couple quarts of water. Then I could eat meat. I drank the water on SAD my blood sugar would still spike and crash. On vegetarian my blood sugar would spike and crash. My biggest challenge comes when my sleep cycle gets interrupted by my job shifting my work shift. I have found that artificial sweeteners aren't that good for my system. Having an hour commute home 18 hours into my workday sucks. When that happens, I don't lose weight. When my schedule calms down, I'm Gucci. I think I am still alive and not hospitalized from doing the carnivore approach. I have also learned no eating at night, shift work, is good. Moving into ketosis I can fast on those shifts now. That's helpful. Couldn't fast a shift on SAD. My church has fasted sun up to one Wednesdays for decades. I know the difference in feel. I can go all day without ravenously and mindlessly eating when I get the chance to. I am convinced I have to stop eating sugarless candy, because I have improved enough to have me notice the little bit of bad it makes me feel. I have replaced that with saline mouth rinses and coconut oil pulling while driving. I will usually drive at a minimum 3 hours each day. Some days as much as 8. I had been eating sugarless candy and chewing the gum to stay extra alert. Oh and I had to learn to eat on my mucked up schedule. Interruptions to my schedule cause disrupted digestion and temporary constipation and requires delayed eating. I am a construction inspector. I had a few months of doing asphalt everyday. That gave me a stable schedule. My days were sensible. I got to eat and sleep on schedule. I am really hoping to get back on working asphalt this year so I can have a stable schedule for a few months. Have days that fit into 16 hours. 18 and 19 hour days, including commute, really really sucks the life out of me. So I am convinced the diet is right for me. I have a kid and have eaten carbs and felt the pain. I now understand not to eat that stuff. That it is a drug like alcohol. Makes me sick. And like nicotine that even after withdrawal, the habit pattern persists. So if I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I feel how it works. I know what happens when I eat other stuff. If you have the time to sleep regular and don't have interruptions to your bathroom access everything is great. I worked through that stuff. I hadn't considered your question before. This is just me thinking it out. Oh I am down 30 pounds with another 50 to go. I intend to lose 25 for my that for my birthday in the summer and another 25 for my christmas present. Then I will get a doctor's checkup.
My gum disease is definitely on the improve since going carnivore 2 months ago! (And I’ve been keto since 2014 and keto had no effect on my gums.) I absolutely have to floss daily though cause I get too much meat caught between my teeth & under my gums. I’m hoping as my gums heal they will also firm up more so I don’t get as much/any caught under the gum itself. Fingers crossed.
I have my butcher blend 20% beef liver with fatty burger mince and cook it for the kids a few times a week. I use taco style seasoning to help mask ANY taste of the liver. I’m Carnivore kids are ketovore. My teeth are much whiter since going carnivore. I also remind the kids to breathe through their nose. They’re off to a great start in life!
Kudos! This is for sure one of the most informative & relevant interviews I have watched in a long time. Plan to forward to everyone I know. Thank you😘
I was in a professional group on FB with Dr. Lin. I have also listened to his book on Audible. He is fantastic and I agree with everything he covers in his book. He is a rare find. I wish he was in Canada. I’m a Dental Hygienist. I see so many preventable issues. It starts from in utero. It’s important to get your baby’s tongue checked by a pediatric dentist within 2 weeks afte birth. Nurse your babies for at least a year. But paleo diet/ carnivore is so beneficial for our digestive system. The digestive system starts in your mouth. Remember, chewing your food is SO crucial to you digestion and muscle development in the face and jaws.
Dr Berry you're an absolute gem. I love how you don't care about the money when it comes to giving valuable information. Since I've been keto and now mostly carnivore, I am realizing most of the professions we have nowadays are based off of banking on peoples mental and physical health declining from the SAD diet call me crazy but once you go carnivore you don't need a doctor dentist or therapist ( which I am training to become right now) unless you physically harm your body.
Excellent presentation. I was keto for many years and now carnivore for around a year. Haven't had a cavity in over 10 years. Anymore I do not trust dentists. I have had many mistakes made by them including wisdom teeth removal, crowns put in poorly, to name a few. I basically see a hygienist and not the DDS/DMD. I do not want any X-rays. Had enough.
Many kids are on ADD and ADHD meds because they cannot sit still and function at school but many kids do not need these drugs, it is a sleep issue, they have trouble breathing and then they are tired during the day thus causing problems acting out at school and home. Unfortunately, these kids are not being diagnosed as having an airway issue and are being drugged with drugs with horrible side effects. Sometimes all they need is orthodontics. And as these kids grow up and become adults they have sleep apnea. As a dental hygienist I see this a lot and wish more dentists would be more proactive and spend more time on nutrition. Thank you for doing this video, I hope many people will see it.
I’m 62 & I have all my teeth. Even my wisdom teeth! Brush twice a day, floss & use original Listerine. I did have braces for 21/2 years due to crooked teeth & over bite. Best thing I did for my teeth. Just watch the sweets & candy, especially chewy. It tends to stick to your teeth. 👍🏻
What you guys were saying about vitamins in fermented foods. explains the story of this lady who said after her dental check up she didn't have any cavities. She said her dad was a bone Dr. Who recommends fermented grass fed butter and cod liver oil. She claimed this is what turned her mouth health around. I have also ran into another dentist online who developed revision toothpaste which helps establish a healthy microbiome. You also explained what yogis do with nasal breathing. Thanks Docs
You should investigate the effects of fluoride on osteoblast and osteoclast activity, then formulate a recommendation. A little spoiler; it interferes with the process of taking up of old bone and the formation of new bone.
Since I went on keto some bacteria which left stains on my teeth never came back, I don't have tartar any more. Don't need tooth cleaning no more. So happy. Unfortunately this vid comes too late. Wisdom teeth are extracted years ago. Heard at Joe rogans podcast some guy prolonged his jaw, wow
My dentist stressed the connection between diabetes and tooth decay but they also said virtually nobody ever stops eating sugar so 🤷♀️. One thing that has helped is xylitol. It has cut down a lot on my gums bleeding on top of the Lchf diet.
When i was a kid my dentist made room for wen my wisdom teeth come in. As they came in i had no problems im so glad he did that. That was smart of him and that was in 1973 i dont know what other dentist in that time did this preplanning like he did
I went carnivore 9 months ago. I had receding & bleeding gums before carnivore & started getting lots of cavities at 40 years old. However, now I have one bad pocket that is getting better. I floss 1-2x/day since carnivore to get the meat from between my teeth & out of that gum pocket. I brush 1-2x/day with fluoride free toothpaste. Recently the dentist said my mouth looks good, after not being to the dentist for 7 years. He did recommend putting a filling in that tooth with the gum pocket.
Never need as much deadening for deep cleaning. When i had 2 crowns in front replaced with implants didnt need as much meds for pain and had no problems healing . Food , oils, sugars. YUCK. STRENGTHING BONES IS A MUST. eating mostly meats. But do use HWC only in morning with coffee. Love that this info is getting out there to help EVERYONE.
Fluoride is absorbed into the body and calcifies both bone and teeth without direct application. This has been proven scientifically. However what they dont mention is that it has also been proven to calcify tendons and ligaments.
Where were you 50 years ago? 100 years ago? Our family's dentist horror stories are very real and painful memories. Worst being a 19 year old having ALL HIS TEETH REMOVED 19 years old! How he suffered through his whole life ...I try hard to not think about to forgive the dentist who did that ....
A lot of this happened with the NHS dentists who got paid more for doing fillings. My Aunt's and her siblings teeth are just full of fillings. My dentist wanted to take out all my wisdom teeth. I went after school and he was running really late on a Friday afternoon. I sat in the chair, he looked in my mouth and said I don't think they need taking out. Lucky escape. Never had any problems with them.
Dr. Berry, It would be so lovely to know if he has had patients who adopted a carnivore diet and have healed tooth abscess, cavities, etc. over the past three years!
So maddening!!! My son was tongue tied and I had to fight and pay $300 to have it released, because the surgery is considered unneeded. But I could not breast feed him, their answer =formula. So I paid $300 to breast feed my son!!! Why do they keep withholding good medical information from us?????
I will be a holistic therapist that educates my clients about diet being the potential reason they may have mental health issues such as bipolar, mood disorders and my ADHD is almost non existent now.
No cavities, all my teeth aside from a front top chip from an injury when I was 6. Not 100% where to account for it. Parents have teeth issues. I never have. Ate the same foods (mostly) until 30 or so. Practiced fasting and have leaned low processed and carnivore for 20 years but drank alcohol and eaten pod pies and lots of nonsense. Not a dentist or medical professional but when maladies sort of pop up in my life and even teeth, fasting and mostly carnivore has seemed to rectify and reverse trends in my health.

10:45 Gum recession. I had gum recession and bone loss. The dentist tool measures 1-5. 1 & 2 are normal. 3 is bad. 4-5 are considered irreversible. I had a bunch of 3's, 4's, and 5's. I reversed all of it and got back to all 1's and 2's. How? Fasting. I fasted 5 consecutive days at the start of every month for a year. At the end of the year, I'd regenerated all the lost bone and gum.
I just had the exact same report from my dentist. Did you have the dentist do the advanced cleaning- under the gum as well as tackle with fasting?
Are you serious? I use to fast a lot. I was on a keto diet. I was only 103 lbs but I have osteopenia. I was 50 doing gymnastics now I’m 57 and I’ve all but given up. I tried the carnivore diet but I had no energy & my sleep was horrible. I went back on fruits so I could sleep. I started sleeping great but I know all the sugar can’t be good for me. I have gum recession really bad & bone loss in my jaw. I love coffee but it’s hard to drink it black. Do you drink coffee? Today I’m 115 lbs 5’ tall
Mind sharing do you use any fluoride toothpaste or mouthwash? Many thanks!
Were you cold too? If you couldn't sleep and had no energy that sounds like you weren't eating enough fat.
Try adding 100grams of butter to your first meal and 100grams of beef fat trimmings at the end of your second or 3rd meal.
That is an extra 1800 calories of food so it may be too much if you already eat over 2500 calories a day. But if you were only eating 1000 calories then 1800 should be fine for most people.

I think most people love their kids, but some don’t understand that sometimes the best way to show love is to say “no”
Say no to what like candy and stuff?
I disagree. You don’t have to say ‘no’ if you educate them and explain fully
@@PureTruth Ahhh... I wish that was true. My kids knew. They made other choices. I never had it in my home when they were growing up but they do grow up. They get to an age when you just do not have much control over what they eat. I made healthy meals but they would not eat it half the time. It sucks.
Some mothers want their kids to have the same issues like them or worse, because they think...i have to suffer with my teeth and now they are ugly and i want my child also to suffer, because they would not like to see their kids more happy, healthy, with bright good teeth and health.
They want to have power and control over their kids.
My mother wanted the same for me and worse, than her, because i realized she was competing with me at some point.
She sabotaged my hole life, healthwise included.
So now we are both complaning in bitterness about our same issues and myself worser even.
She feels better about herself it seems, when i do not succeed. And when i succeed its her acomlishment. Even tho she never was doing anything for me in my childhood.
I grew up with her and she gave me no breastfeeding ( scared her breast would hang ).
Baby formula.
Later i drank only milk, chocolatmilk.
Ate Nutella every day with bread.
4x a year some fruit
Never meat, real butter, real fish, nuts.
1 egg a week
Cookies for breakfast, evening.
Sometines pottoes 2x week.
Go figure i survived, but was chronically ill, with all kind of issues and i am surprized she thinks she did good.😂
Grandparents. That’s all I can say.
I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I have gone to a dentist. My last experience was horrible. He asked when was the last time I saw a dentist. I said about 17 years ago! He was not pleased by that answer. The hygienist proceeded to clean my teeth. Both the dentist and hygienist were both commenting on the lack of plaque, no cavities, and one cavity stopped the process of decaying. Then the dentist took over, he began cleaning my teeth by the time he got done I was in such pain from his cleaning. The pain lasted that whole day plus two more days. Obviously, he was quite annoyed by the way I cared for my teeth. I had developed 4 cavities in my late teens, when I began drinking soda. I noticed the correlation, so I stopped drinking soda. Since that time, I haven't had any cavities. Diet is extremely important in dental health.
what is your diet now. keto carnivore?
I am 54 and rarely go to the dentist. Last time I went all she did was try to sell me stuff with scare tactics...."you need an implant, braces, teeth whitening, etc". Or else all of these bad things are going to happen. My teeth aren't perfect, but not crooked...if nothing hurts, and my gums aren't bleeding then I have no need for a dentist. Ketovore diet here with an occasional cheat ( holidays and such).
So because your teeth weren't bad, the dentist wasted his time punishing you?
Time to find a new dentist!
@@sta090806 so many dentists are terrible. I routinely embarrassed docs including dentists with alternative cures....I use NEEM toothpaste along with high vit D & k2 doses for 8 years, stopping decay 100%
My husband was diagnosed with a cavity, but told it could wait until the next time. 6 months later the cavity had remineralized... so we are believers. The dentist agreed that could happen but I've never had a dentist admit this up front.
Very nice! Thanks and glad it works
How did he do it? Please help.
He makes a remineralizing tooth powder and essential oil tooth formula for follow up. Look up Oral wellness for tooth oil, and wellness mama for powder recipe.... he found it years ago and has been using it since.
@@phylsjourney thank you so much!! Will definitely try it!!
Sounds close to miracles 🙈😄
This is what it looks like to fulfill the Hippocratic Oath. Drs actually caring about the health and well-being of their patients. What a great idea!
Good job setting a good example for other drs!
Go look that oath up and read it…they take an oath to Apollo
Vitamins A, D, K2, full , WHOLE fat butter. Fat soluable vitamins and Cod liver oil.
Thanks. They just don't like to get straight to the point.
What is good supplement of vitamin A?
I started having periodontal cleanings with 6 and 7’s a year ago and went carnivore 4 months ago. On my 3rd visit to the dentist all my pockets were3’s. I knew it when I went in and asked the dentist to check them, he asked me what I had done, and told him carnivore. I’ve never smiled so much leaving a dentist. Only good news!
Then he went to his cardiologist... Oh no! Dead before the bill came.
32:10 Dr. Berry does a sumation half way through. 38:57 More info. 42:45 The body can heal cavities. 46:06 What about Floride? 51:38 Wrap it up. 58:03 Sleep Apnea.
Where do they talk about braces?
Thank you!
Thank you!❤
Thank you!
@@waleskaaddams LoL if you know they did you should have an idea. Near the beginning and near the end. Also more about the growth of the jaw from vit d and calcium absorption
All my life I’ve been plagued with tender bleeding gums and sensitive loose teeth. No matter how much I brushed and flossed it never improved. Dental cleaning was a blood bath and I was worn out from being tense while the hygienist did her work. Cavities were expected with each visit. 4 years ago I began Keto and since then my teeth and gums have been improving and with each visit my hygienist remarks about how clean my teeth are, and NO cavities.
You need Herbpower21 😊
Hey Yuk mouth, use Chlorhexidine mouth wash.
@@rachelmitchell2853 what is herbpower???
Look up Probiora, probiotics for oral health.
That’s awesome! ❤️👏🏻👏🏻
I work with a holistic dentist as of 4 years ago. We treated my hurting tooth with ozone treatments but 4 years later the pain was in the roof of my mouth. The dentist said it was abscessed and had to come out! The tooth was loose but he ended up having to cut it into pieces to get it out!!! I am devastated!!! It’s humiliating to lose a tooth and now I will pay him $3,000 for a bridge to fill the gap! I am not a candidate for an implant!!! I have cried about this loss so much! It is hard to explain the emotion around losing a good molar!!! I keep thinking that I could have saved it some how and this diet may be how I could have! I really haven’t eaten “bad” for years but not enough of the fatty meats and raw milk. I knew about Weston A. Price for 25 years! Heck i raised four kids on a decent diet that we bought from farmers! I have chickens in my backyard and yet i still lost my tooth!!! I thought by going to a holistic dentist that I was in the clear! Just another reminder that I am the one in charge of my own healthcare. Doctors and dentist are there when I need a tourniquet, if you know what I mean!!! Apologies for the length of this message!!! Thanks for listening, Jen
Meat is toxic to humans... you need fruit... lots of raw fruit! So simple and obvious yet you think you need to eat the decaying flesh of murdered animals... what a joke! Your own story tells you that eating this crap didn't help you... why can't you see the obvious! You ARE in charge of your own healthcare... it's just that you are an ignorant blind muppet dancing to a muppet beat.
The holistic dentist said that it did have an abscess . I trusted him but I asked a to have the tooth that he had to cut in to 3 pieces to take out.
The tooth didn’t look bad to me but I am not a trained dental professional. I trusted him to do what was best and I wasn’t doing a root canal bc of the cancer risk associated with such treatment. I can’t live in the past only learn from it. Moving onward and upward!
Feel you! Cried alot myself. Especially to think so much information that is disseminated by many " dental professionals" is entirely misleading, and founded upon falsehoods. Know better. Do better. Hence the word "professional."
This is great for me as a dental hygienist. I often feel useless in helping patients who suffer from periodontal disease or who are very prone to caries. I've always known that diet must play a huge role. 'Brush, floss, try this product, try that'...and they still struggle.
I started a nutrient dense carnivore diet during the pandemic while our dental offices were closed. Just before the pandemic, my dentist had recommended a $6400 dental plan. When I came back a year later, my bone loss had improved, enamel improved, gum disease improved and I no longer needed all the work. He was shocked and asked what I've been doing.
I didnt know u can improve enamel?
I’ve been feeling so depressed since being diagnosed with mild periodontal disease and prediabetes all in the same week! And my dentist said I probably had prediabetes for quite a while as a lot of prediabetics and diabetics have periodontal disease and I’m just so depressed with all this. Can keto really help gums and regeneration of bone ???
@@silvanapetrozzi7343 it is working for me. You will still need to get some dental work done but you will see huge improvements with dental and diabetes on a proper human diet.
@@MellowJourney4Life when you say gum disease do you mean gingivitis or periodontal disease?
@@jagoisvara8178 yes, that is what I meant
GODSEND! Thank you doctors. 3rd week carnivore here. I used to need to brush twice a day from feeling yucky on SAD diet. Today I brush once and only out of habit, my teeth never get the nasty coating they used to, they are super clean all the time.
Very cool 😎
You are eating dead body cavities... filled with pesticides and pus... NO WAY your breath is "clean" !!! GROSS! You are SAD!
Started keto mid August. Carnivore now. Was shocked at the improvement in my dental health!! I couldn't chew anything but soft foods because my teeth were so loose and gum disease so severe. Now I can eat steak!!
Really? Did the diet really do that?
@@Jay-pi5bx I’m sure it did
THIS! This was the testimony I have been looking for! Thank you for sharing!
I cut out diet soda before going on Keto, even that one step helped a ton.
I’m feeling so depressed did keto or carnivore improve your gum disease? I’ve been so depressed and anxious since finding out I have mild periodontal disease and I found this out after finding out I was prediabetic and I’m so down about it I can’t even get out of bed in the morning now. I read that with periodontal disease diabetes is harder to control which makes me just want to give up. I don’t have any loose teeth yet but I have some very mild bone loss and I had a deep clean 3 months ago and a follow up yesterday and was told it healed well but I had still some areas at the back with plaque build up! I do my best to clean the back of the teeth but it’s like a never ending battle. Do you think keto would helpive already cut out all sugars and I want to get on top of this and the prediabetes
One of your most informative interviews. I learned a lot.
I'm in my 30s and have never vistied a dentist in my life. Never flossed, only brush my teeth if something is stuck between them. Never had a problem, just a small chip from my youth playing contact sports.
I eat very high amounts of dairy. Pint of milk per day, tonnes of cheese, butter, cream, kefir, yogurt and even homemade ice cream.
I think nutrient deficiencies play a major role in dental health problems. The body takes care of itself if you give it what it needs.
Cow breast milk it doesn't need. It's meant for calves not humans!
@@kilipaki87oritahiti 🥱💤
Wow, you've turned my world around. What a revelation.
Raw or pasteurized milk? I have not found a raw milk supplier where I live.
I think this is one of the most important videos I have ever watched on TH-cam. It makes sense that the evidence of malnutrition and poor overall health can be detected in the mouth. The oral health status and its progression may be one of the best indicators of overall health and in which direction it is headed.
I was visiting the dentist every three months because of severe plac and buildup. I had deep pockets. It was never suggested that I quit smoking from my dentist which in hindsight could have made a difference but not likely. On my own initiative I went on keto and natural tooth paste and immediately noticed a huge improvement. I didn’t go back for 3 or more years and just recently went and all is well. Diet made all the difference for me. I’m 72.
Oil pulling w coconut oil helped tighten my gums in 6 months. I went from 3s to 1s. Also whitens the teeth
I have had gum disease and 3 gum reconstructions. I went on 80% carnivore about a year ago. In my last checkup, my dentist said your gums look great! They have not said that for many years even after the reconstructions.
About a year after I started the Keto diet, at my annual oral exam, I had perfect gums! I was so shocked because my gums were inflamed around my back teeth despite my best efforts since. . . Forever. My gains have held for the last 3 years.
This channel is gold. What a valuable knowledge.
Awesome information you should have this re-aired. It’s a crime that not all Dentist share and:or even know this information.
finally someone really linked keto to cavity health. it was unexpected for me when i was on keto. my oral health improved a lot.
thank you thank you i have been following your advice for about 6 mo I'm 77 male was obese at 212lbs 5-8 I'm now 158
and feel great although a host of issues pad 12 stints past 156 kidney stones in the past 4 heart stints i didn't know any better i have been doing intermittent fasting and keto style and the most amazing thing I'm taking D3 K2 along with other supplements and i can't believe my gingivitis has disappeared no more bleeding gums
blood work great sugar 68
You are amazing for being able to change your life💕💕💕
Wow!
Two years ago missed this broadcast, but WOW what a valuable gift of knowledge. Now I know what happened to me and my kids, hope I can improve the dental health of my future grandkids . . . if we’re lucky enough to have them. Thanks Dr. Berry & Dr. Lin!!
Thank you so much for this huge educational video. I’m sending it to my son and daughter in law for raising their children. You men are a wonderful blessing to your viewers.
I love your TH-cam name! (I play Lucy Ricardo at Universal Studios Fl. )🙂
Thank you Dr Ben. Could you ask Dr Lin to come back and talk about root canals? What to do once you’ve had them? And if better to remove tooth, should one then get an implant? Or leave the hole. Thank you!
Such an important topic!!! I was told I have a possible abscess on a root canal tooth and it needs to be redone although I don’t have any pain etc… I was also playing with the thought of just get an extraction so there won’t be any harmful bacteria anymore… it’s so difficult to get an unbiased info on that topic!
@@keinohrtini as someone who had a root canal and DEAD tooth in my mouth for 20 years, then 2 years ago the infection was so bad the dentist wouldn't let me leave the office without extracting it...NO ONE should get root canals. They are DEAD. Shouldn't leave dead things in the body. Either heal the tooth or have it pulled if a composite filling can't fix it (composite can do more than amalgam, which is 50% mercury/poison anyway).
I’m a registered dental hygienist and yes, I’ve had dentist tell the patient that the decay can recalcify as long as it hasn’t progressed from the enamel into the dentin and you don’t eat sugar and you keep clean.
Most patients do not listen.
Atleast your dentist mentioned it, thank God!! Mine don't mention of any corrective actions, so bad😡
Ever since I changed my diet to keto and carnivore, stopped having cavities and bad breath. Even my kids haven’t had cavities either.
Mam please tell how you reverse your cavity
Are yours kids carnivore as well?
@@slee7991 yes they. Their main meal for breakfast before school is mostly beef, eggs
@@Christine-xs2of what do you do for lunch/dinner or snacks?
I do meat heavy meals for my little one but I struggle with variety. I still have it in my head my toddler needs "fun" stuff to eat other than just meat
@@slee7991 i completely understand it.
So my menu is really simple. Rotate all different kinds of meats but more heavy on beef. No concept of snacks in my home. Kids don’t usually get hungry since they eat mostly protein and fat. For school now, i bring beef jerkies. Since my kids are healthy, I still give them some fruits and low oxalate veggies but not for me and my husband.
50 years old all my teeth no gum disease, no scale. I eat no sugar nor seed oil. Brush once a day in the morning and never floss. My dentist hates me.
I want to, but I'm happy for you!
Congratulations to you! God Bless
Very happy for you
What is your diet like? Besides the no sugar and seed oils? Curious.
@@DodgeChic69 beef, cream, eggs and veg. I also eat pork and the rare bird.
Seed oils are in almost every packaged food.
It's not that I never eat starch, when I do I confined that to a one meal day.
LOL 🤣 "Lies My Dentist Told Me"
What did you think he was going to say? Lol !
Thank you, Dr. So glad I found you. I matched this with my young daughter. I had a lifetime of bad teeth and I want her to avoid what I’ve gone through. Thank you!!
I wish i knew sugar, refine flours, and seed fats cause cavaties. My daughter and I have been eating this diets for the past 30+ years. Its a shame our own dentist dr did not advise us to avoid it to prevent cavaties. Disease are caused by foods.
What is the dental diet
Dr Berry AND Dr Lin - wow! This RDH has hit the jackpot of inspiring experts in my life in this video! Dr Lin has inspired me to go beyond the standard nutrional message of sugar-bacteria-acid= cavities and educate about fat soluble vitamins and more. Personally, I am following the Canviore diet upgraded from Keto. (I had the hardest time balancing my electrolytes on Keto; no leg cramping at all now on Carnivore and energy all day.) Thank you both for all you do to help people live healthy.
This was exceptional. It's so disturbing what ISN'T shared. I had a mouthful of cavities growing up (as did my brother and sister) and crooked teeth (grateful our parents got us orthodontic care) and also had our wisdom teeth removed. My parents could probably own a second home with what they spent on our oral care. Who knew wisdom teeth weren't supposed to be pulled?! It all makes sense now. My mind is blown.
Have they mentioned anything specific about the wisdom teeth other than the early jaw development at the very end of the video? Could you please give the time stamp ?
@@pianofortewithreshmimeleth3563 Look at 28:07 (click on the timestamp under "Chapters" above). I can't recall if all the wisdom teeth explanation is there, but they definitely talk about it (and how jaw bone isn't developed enough for the wisdom teeth. In most cases (in a healthy child who eats right), it should be.
@@rochellet7303 thank you for the time stamp. Unfortunately, it is only pointing out how to develop strong jaws for kids and prevent future problems but nothing for adults 😞
@@pianofortewithreshmimeleth3563 There is information out there, if you look up Dr. Mike Mew, about getting jaws to grow, but it will take too long and not present enough results to aid in serious problems for adults. It WILL, however, help cure sleep apnea, along with exercises for that, and using a wedge pillow at night.
Just finished rewatching. Thank you again Dr Berry, Dr Lin, you guys are amazing
My back teeth were hurting from grinding teeth at night due to stress, I'm a caretaker and work from home too. After being carnivore for 11 days, the TMJ is much better and pain from all the 'comforting' sweets I was eating is TOTALLY gone! Sugar is not a comfort when your teeth hurt from eating so much, cake, ice cream, donuts, whatever soothed me emotionally. This is for me. I knew sugar was the problem with pain, cavity development, exhaustion, major weight gain and sedentary work, etc. I started at 218lbs and 5'8", haven't weighed yet and won't until it's been 3 or 6 months. I'm excited for how I'll look and feel a year from now. This is a true blessing. Anytime I think of going back, I remind myself that my Dad has dementia, I don't want that for my health, sugar is def part of that problem.
Chronic stress is a contributing pillar to tooth decay that is rarely touched upon. Four-plus decades of narcissistic abuse resulted in a litany of cascading health conditions. Provided one is taking appropriate care, guidance, and suggested interventions, the body cannot heal, let alone survive when cortisol levels are permanently elevated.
I love Doctors that challenge the status Quo for the sake of the well being of people.
Hi, Dr Berry 😊
I'm so glad you're back talking about teeth and cavities. Thanks 👍❤️😁
Just sent this to my dad's wife, she's a dentist and orthodontist working in Spain, wish it was in Spanish too, I'll try to translate this for her and for sure tell her to get his book, thanks for all the information to you both, great as always. 🙏
Did she ever say what she thought about thus interview and the information?
We need to keep our wisdom teeth. Their agenda behind removing them is to cut us off from our hearts ( we become less loving n empathetic) because the wisdom teeth are connected to the heart meridian. We need them.
Thanks for this information
Tack! I never thought of that.
Part of the issue of misaligned teeth is that if babies are bottle fed in their first year, they will most likely need braces later. The muscles in the jaw are not developed when the baby is bottle fed. Then when the teeth come in, the jaw is not shaped to have them come in straight. There’s not enough room.
Breastfeeding helps to develop those muscles and the teeth come in straight and there’s room for all of them.
I agree but that is why there is myofunctional therapy which trains kids to have a proper tongue swallow plus proper tongue posture.that shit is expensive for something that we should be doing naturally. The worst part is when kids grow up and realize they were doing everything wrong their whole life.
My daughter was breast fed for a year and we were really careful with food and she didn't have sunblock but her front teeth were still crooked and she needed braces. Our son, 2 years older, no problems...
What is unique about nutrition from bottle fed?
I stopped breastfeeding at 5 month old. Teeth totally straight. 🤷♀️
My dentist will not treat cavities until they are more severe. He has been watching some of mine for a few years. Maybe now that I am keto/low carb, they will heal themselves.
How are your teeth now
Hey Ken! I always wondered why archaelogical teeth were ALWAYS bright & shiny & with hardly ANY cavities at all, even after these bones & teeth had been buried in the earth for years!
It was fantastic to hear Dr. Lin. He has confirmed what you have been saying about the carnivore diet - It's good for your body AND your teeth!
Dr. Lin must be just a stone's throw away from where I live - he may even be a neighbour!
Thanks for this!
I knew im on the way on my period but this makes me wanna cry... You two are hero :"
This was fabulous! Rest assured that I'm sharing this.
Thank you both so much doctors.
I bought this book a while ago - fantastic! It is on audible as well - highly recommend
My gums stopped bleeding during flossing 2 weeks after reducing carbs. That made me start keto because I thought if it can do this to the outside of my body, there has to be more benefits on the inside of my body.
Do you still have dairy? I would assume carbs are worse than diary but diary might not be so bad if it’s raw and unpasteurized

I wish dentists said anything about reminiralization. Also, there is another issues. Too much stress is also detrimental to teeth.
Yes! It causes the body to stop sending minerals to the teeth just like blood sugar spikes! I'm convinced that a course of antibiotics years ago and chronic major stress have wreaked havoc on my teeth.
Since I've been Keto for more than a yearand a half, I've found that I have very little tartar on my teeth and I don't have any morning breath.
One of the first things I noticed when I went keto years ago was that I have no plaque on my teeth, even at the end of the day. My dentist tells me I'm his most boring patient because I never have anything wrong with my teeth!
@@imjustnotsure1885 I've been using Redmonds' Earthpaste with bentonite clay and I love it.
Enigmatistic • What is bentonite clay?
@@henrikmadsen2176 No idea but it makes a great paste. 🤔
My morning breath(lasts all day)went away when I stopped consuming sugar.
I enjoyed the book! Great read! Same dietary vitamins as cardiovascular health (A, D3, K2) although beta carotene and CoQ10 are also required for cardiovascular health. Beta carotene is in grass fed butter. The book helped me further understand the importance of liver, fish and butter. Thank you!!
Beta carotene is not required.
My guess is you think beta carotene is necessary because it's supposed to be converted into vitamin A.

Hi I am a dentist in the UK, and I we definitely give nutritional advice, and we are taught food and human nutrition at university....
That doesn't happen here in the US.
Too late for me on keeping wisdom teeth; all four of them came in at a 90 degree angle and were impacted, badly affecting all my other teeth. Had to have them removed 25 years ago, and sure don't miss the pain the impaction was causing.
My new dentist told me in June that my teeth are in excellent health (I'm a 70 y.o. woman), and he had to do only one tiny filling of the tooth I've always referred to as my "problem child" because of the tiny hole up behind it that has to be filled about once every 18 to 20 years.
I have a friend who loves---LOVES--to eat many desserts, she and her family, and she had to go through real torture earlier this year to get her two lower incisors taken care of. Many appointments, extremely painful cleanings, reconstructions, etc., and she can finally say her teeth are now secure in her gums---but she will not listen when I tell her her issues are diet related, and that the problems will come back if she doesn't stop with the heavy sugar use. She's 49, I'm 70, and she can't understand why my teeth are so healthy (ketovore for the last 3 1/2 years, no sugars!). Wish she'd pay attention, but I can't force her, and her husband would never tolerate her not making desserts and sweet snacks for (the family) every day 🙄.
Maybe you could prepare a keto desert for her? This may convince her to go ahead with a low carb diet. You don't need to necessarily give up desserts while on keto.
Top of my list of things I wish my mom had told me.
I wish I knew this years ago! I have had my first good dental checkup in years after going keto for a year. I still have significant tartar buildup but my gum health is so much improved. Why didn’t the ADA know about this?
I saw Dr. Lin on a video seminar about oral health. Very personable. We could have saved mucho bucks on our kids’ orthodontics if we had known this back when. Hoping all my family will be carnivore soon.
Listening from, London,Ontario, Canada. Thks
Near you, in sarnia ;)
I had a dentist tell me my cavities were so small they would lightly sand blast them and let them heal on their own. It was in 1999. I haven't had any tooth issues since so I assume they healed.
I also have small cavity... Please tell how you reverse cavity
@@TamilArasi-bx8oe change your diet like they say in the video. Get the minerals, vitamins, and nutrients you need. Oil pulling can help. The Japanese have a remineralizing toothpaste if you can find it. It also depends on your enamel. Grey enamel means your teeth look better, more white. Yellow enamel looks less pleasant but it is harder and less cavity prone according to my sis in laws dentist. Good luck.
@@jamievann5181 pls tell reminerlasing tooth paste
@@jamievann5181 now black spot appearing ony teeth... Please give tips to clear it
@@TamilArasi-bx8oe it's from Japan. You will have to search to see if it's available where you live.
Edit: OMG you were right!! Now my dental hygienist told me that Sensodyne only relieves sensitivity but its usage alone is not enough to prevent cavities by itself 😭She told be the best is to mainly use Colgate, which is more efficient at killing bad bacterias!!! Now she recommends Sensodyne only a few times a week.
I have a dentist in Montreal, Canada who saw a cavity on my last molar and told me to be more careful about that spot during brushing. He said there was no point to fill it yet since there is still a chance for my dentin to remineralize itself if i clean it well with sensodyne toothpaste and in fact, it’s been almost a year now and that cavity has stopped progressing
lol sensodyne is garbage, it's jsut loaded with painkillers :D
The problem with the pain-killing chemical in Sensodyne is that they fill the microscopic holes in your enamel like spackling, which makes it harder to remineralize, according to Dr. Ellie, a dentist from Rochester NY. I don’t use her protocol anymore but now use a non-fluoride toothpaste without the sensitivity ingredient. I no longer have sensitive teeth that have plagued me for 25 years!
@@SabineLeppanen_Art I finally switched completely to Colgate after my dental hygienist explained that Sensodyne doesn't eliminated all the bad bacterias...she recommended me Colgate as a regular toothpaste....and wow I saw a big improvement in my gums. Also, my teeth's sensitvity to cold is almost non-existent. May I ask you what brand of toothpaste you are using? That's amazing that you were able to eliminate sensitive teeth!!
@@thdmlnt5258 it’s called Himalaya Botanique. It doesn’t taste as good as Sensodyne or Colgate but it doesn’t have fluoride, which is important to me for the sake of my thyroid. The taste is not terrible. My teeth were even sensitive to air before I started using Sensodyne. The dentist would paint a substance on them which helped for a little while. Finally I was told to rub Sensodyne onto my molars and gums before brushing because the soft toothbrush was excruciating in a few spots. I used Sensodyne for many years, never rinsing it out as I was taught. I shudder to think how many chemicals and fluoride I must have absorbed through the tissue in my mouth. I used a toothpaste from my local health food store which contained the same de-sensitizing chemical but no fluoride (the lady at the health food store told me they would not carry any items with fluoride because it’s harmful to the thyroid). That worked as well as Sensodyne for the sensitivity but then I decided to try going without it…and no more sensitivity. I am sure it was the almost-carnivore diet, as my gums are in great shape now, too. I am almost 68. I have now weaned myself, very slowly, off my thyroid med and feel better than ever.
@@SabineLeppanen_Art woah! I am taking note about the fluoride aggravating the thyroid issue :O!! I am not surprise that your diet also has a positive impact on your gums and teeth's health since meat isn't acidic and doesn't stick to teeth like carbs
My wife and her father have the most amazing teeth. He is in his 70’s and both of them never had any cavities even though they eat plants, carbs snd sugar. Zero problems. I on the other hand had multiple cavities. I was on Keto for over the year and I noticed that even though I have changed my diet my gums were still bleeding when flossing. It occurred to me that this is some kind of deficiency. I cut down on plants and increased eating meat. There is improvement.
My wife and I can't eat the same thing. Don't think you have to. I think you have figured that out. We are type O + and - her and I. Are their blood types different than you. I bet so. Keep at it
I stopped carbs two weeks ago. I'm a nose breather for the first time in decades. I'm weening my kid off carbs. I let him have deliberate sweets in the early part of the day. On those occasions. Done with grains breads pasta etc. He likes meat and eggs and cheese.
hows it going ? any updates ? still on the diet ?
@@johnnytsunami3558 I am thoroughly convinced that carnivore is the right eating style for me. I visited my sister in the summer and ate pizza and sad. Gained twenty pounds and lost it within a 2 or 3 week visit. I also ate sad over the holidays and felt terrible. I have been able to directly correlate eating carbs with feeling terrible on individual occasions. Carbs, at my age, are like drinking liquor. I have had occasions where habit overruled sense where I ate something. Usually when I didn't pack enough lunch, or when I felt stressed. Whenever I realize what I'd done, I take vitamins and take anti inflammatory and allergy medicines until I can get my body back to right in carnivore. I got upset at something a few days ago and I don't remember what I ate, but I did a complete 24 hour fast, ate beef last night and I am barely back into ketosis. I'll probably have another day of Advil Sinus and Zyrtec and vitamin B, C, etc. and Zinc. Until I get my body back to carnivore chemistry. I am doing well. The diet works perfectly when I do it. My knees don't hurt and my nose doesn't run. Last year my job was more stable, I could get up early and drink a couple quarts of water. Then I could eat meat. I drank the water on SAD my blood sugar would still spike and crash. On vegetarian my blood sugar would spike and crash. My biggest challenge comes when my sleep cycle gets interrupted by my job shifting my work shift. I have found that artificial sweeteners aren't that good for my system. Having an hour commute home 18 hours into my workday sucks. When that happens, I don't lose weight. When my schedule calms down, I'm Gucci. I think I am still alive and not hospitalized from doing the carnivore approach. I have also learned no eating at night, shift work, is good. Moving into ketosis I can fast on those shifts now. That's helpful. Couldn't fast a shift on SAD. My church has fasted sun up to one Wednesdays for decades. I know the difference in feel. I can go all day without ravenously and mindlessly eating when I get the chance to. I am convinced I have to stop eating sugarless candy, because I have improved enough to have me notice the little bit of bad it makes me feel. I have replaced that with saline mouth rinses and coconut oil pulling while driving. I will usually drive at a minimum 3 hours each day. Some days as much as 8. I had been eating sugarless candy and chewing the gum to stay extra alert. Oh and I had to learn to eat on my mucked up schedule. Interruptions to my schedule cause disrupted digestion and temporary constipation and requires delayed eating. I am a construction inspector. I had a few months of doing asphalt everyday. That gave me a stable schedule. My days were sensible. I got to eat and sleep on schedule. I am really hoping to get back on working asphalt this year so I can have a stable schedule for a few months. Have days that fit into 16 hours. 18 and 19 hour days, including commute, really really sucks the life out of me. So I am convinced the diet is right for me. I have a kid and have eaten carbs and felt the pain. I now understand not to eat that stuff. That it is a drug like alcohol. Makes me sick. And like nicotine that even after withdrawal, the habit pattern persists. So if I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I feel how it works. I know what happens when I eat other stuff. If you have the time to sleep regular and don't have interruptions to your bathroom access everything is great. I worked through that stuff. I hadn't considered your question before. This is just me thinking it out. Oh I am down 30 pounds with another 50 to go. I intend to lose 25 for my that for my birthday in the summer and another 25 for my christmas present. Then I will get a doctor's checkup.
My gum disease is definitely on the improve since going carnivore 2 months ago! (And I’ve been keto since 2014 and keto had no effect on my gums.)
I absolutely have to floss daily though cause I get too much meat caught between my teeth & under my gums. I’m hoping as my gums heal they will also firm up more so I don’t get as much/any caught under the gum itself. Fingers crossed.
What do you use to brush your teeth since you do carnivore diet?
I have my butcher blend 20% beef liver with fatty burger mince and cook it for the kids a few times a week. I use taco style seasoning to help mask ANY taste of the liver. I’m Carnivore kids are ketovore. My teeth are much whiter since going carnivore. I also remind the kids to breathe through their nose. They’re off to a great start in life!
Kudos! This is for sure one of the most informative & relevant interviews I have watched in a long time. Plan to forward to everyone I know. Thank you😘
I was in a professional group on FB with Dr. Lin. I have also listened to his book on Audible. He is fantastic and I agree with everything he covers in his book. He is a rare find. I wish he was in Canada. I’m a Dental Hygienist. I see so many preventable issues. It starts from in utero. It’s important to get your baby’s tongue checked by a pediatric dentist within 2 weeks afte birth. Nurse your babies for at least a year. But paleo diet/ carnivore is so beneficial for our digestive system. The digestive system starts in your mouth. Remember, chewing your food is SO crucial to you digestion and muscle development in the face and jaws.
Dr Berry you're an absolute gem. I love how you don't care about the money when it comes to giving valuable information. Since I've been keto and now mostly carnivore, I am realizing most of the professions we have nowadays are based off of banking on peoples mental and physical health declining from the SAD diet call me crazy but once you go carnivore you don't need a doctor dentist or therapist ( which I am training to become right now) unless you physically harm your body.
Excellent presentation. I was keto for many years and now carnivore for around a year. Haven't had a cavity in over 10 years. Anymore I do not trust dentists. I have had many mistakes made by them including wisdom teeth removal, crowns put in poorly, to name a few. I basically see a hygienist and not the DDS/DMD. I do not want any X-rays. Had enough.
I am in the middle of an implant then I'm done too. Cleaning only!
@@thebobsmith1991I clean my own teeth I bought a dentist pick set.. never had a cavity
Use Toms toothpaste
My dentist won't allow me to see the hygienist in his office unless I see him once a year.
Where do you go to see a hygienist and not the DDS/DMD? Is that even possible to do? Can you only see a hygienist and not have to see a DDS or DMD?
@@OrganicLover10 In CO. The hygienists can practice independently in that state.
Many kids are on ADD and ADHD meds because they cannot sit still and function at school but many kids do not need these drugs, it is a sleep issue, they have trouble breathing and then they are tired during the day thus causing problems acting out at school and home. Unfortunately, these kids are not being diagnosed as having an airway issue and are being drugged with drugs with horrible side effects. Sometimes all they need is orthodontics. And as these kids grow up and become adults they have sleep apnea. As a dental hygienist I see this a lot and wish more dentists would be more proactive and spend more time on nutrition. Thank you for doing this video, I hope many people will see it.
I’m 62 & I have all my teeth. Even my wisdom teeth! Brush twice a day, floss & use original Listerine. I did have braces for 21/2 years due to crooked teeth & over bite. Best thing I did for my teeth. Just watch the sweets & candy, especially chewy. It tends to stick to your teeth. 👍🏻
Have you ever had cavities in your wisdom teeth? If so, how did you heal/reverse them?
What you guys were saying about vitamins in fermented foods. explains the story of this lady who said after her dental check up she didn't have any cavities. She said her dad was a bone Dr. Who recommends fermented grass fed butter and cod liver oil. She claimed this is what turned her mouth health around. I have also ran into another dentist online who developed revision toothpaste which helps establish a healthy microbiome. You also explained what yogis do with nasal breathing. Thanks Docs
This is EPIC! I'm going to share it wirh my WHOLE family!
Just what I needed. I'm too young for my teeth to be falling out❣️ Hallelujah 😇
Would you do a video about keeping fractured teeth, after a immobilization treatment? It seems this approach has almost 100% positive results.

You should investigate the effects of fluoride on osteoblast and osteoclast activity, then formulate a recommendation. A little spoiler; it interferes with the process of taking up of old bone and the formation of new bone.
Since I went on keto some bacteria which left stains on my teeth never came back, I don't have tartar any more. Don't need tooth cleaning no more. So happy. Unfortunately this vid comes too late. Wisdom teeth are extracted years ago. Heard at Joe rogans podcast some guy prolonged his jaw, wow
Sounds interesting! Which episode was it?
As a DVM, PhD, MS this is a watershed moment of information….
I don't trust dentists and orthodontists anymore. Wish none of my teeth had ever been pulled out. It has messed up my bite and led to TMJ disorder.
Lol.... I am a carnivore married to an orthodontist
Oh sad 😔
I went through 8 years of an orthodontist nightmare and he ruined the look of my smile. I tried to sue him but got nowhere.
Same
Same!
My dentist stressed the connection between diabetes and tooth decay but they also said virtually nobody ever stops eating sugar so 🤷♀️. One thing that has helped is xylitol. It has cut down a lot on my gums bleeding on top of the Lchf diet.
When i was a kid my dentist made room for wen my wisdom teeth come in. As they came in i had no problems im so glad he did that. That was smart of him and that was in 1973 i dont know what other dentist in that time did this preplanning like he did
Ketogenic diet saved my gums and teeth on what’s left of them.
This has given me the most motivation of all your videos I’ve watched so far! Thank you!
100% “what patients do at home is what matters the most”
Back in the day; 4 root canals; and not one doc told me to stop eating carbohydrates.
I went carnivore 9 months ago. I had receding & bleeding gums before carnivore & started getting lots of cavities at 40 years old. However, now I have one bad pocket that is getting better. I floss 1-2x/day since carnivore to get the meat from between my teeth & out of that gum pocket. I brush 1-2x/day with fluoride free toothpaste. Recently the dentist said my mouth looks good, after not being to the dentist for 7 years. He did recommend putting a filling in that tooth with the gum pocket.
Never need as much deadening for deep cleaning. When i had 2 crowns in front replaced with implants didnt need as much meds for pain and had no problems healing . Food , oils, sugars. YUCK. STRENGTHING BONES IS A MUST. eating mostly meats. But do use HWC only in morning with coffee. Love that this info is getting out there to help EVERYONE.
Please do a follow up interview with Dr Steven Lin 🙏
Fluoride is absorbed into the body and calcifies both bone and teeth without direct application. This has been proven scientifically. However what they dont mention is that it has also been proven to calcify tendons and ligaments.
Wow
Nothing to help. We shouldn’t be drinking it in our water. And people are getting cavities anyway.
Where were you

Our family's dentist horror stories are very real and painful memories.
Worst being a 19 year old having ALL HIS TEETH REMOVED
19 years old!
How he suffered through his whole life ...I try hard to not think about
to forgive the dentist who did that ....
A lot of this happened with the NHS dentists who got paid more for doing fillings. My Aunt's and her siblings teeth are just full of fillings. My dentist wanted to take out all my wisdom teeth. I went after school and he was running really late on a Friday afternoon. I sat in the chair, he looked in my mouth and said I don't think they need taking out. Lucky escape. Never had any problems with them.
Fluoride is a by product of Aluminium and is a neurotoxin
Dr. Berry, It would be so lovely to know if he has had patients who adopted a carnivore diet and have healed tooth abscess, cavities, etc. over the past three years!
Just what I needed. I'm too young for my teeth to be falling out❣️ Hallelujah 😇
So maddening!!! My son was tongue tied and I had to fight and pay $300 to have it released, because the surgery is considered unneeded. But I could not breast feed him, their answer =formula. So I paid $300 to breast feed my son!!! Why do they keep withholding good medical information from us?????
Sounds like a bargain to me. You must not live in the United States.
I will be a holistic therapist that educates my clients about diet being the potential reason they may have mental health issues such as bipolar, mood disorders and my ADHD is almost non existent now.
Brilliant talk by my two favourites!!!
No cavities, all my teeth aside from a front top chip from an injury when I was 6. Not 100% where to account for it. Parents have teeth issues. I never have. Ate the same foods (mostly) until 30 or so. Practiced fasting and have leaned low processed and carnivore for 20 years but drank alcohol and eaten pod pies and lots of nonsense. Not a dentist or medical professional but when maladies sort of pop up in my life and even teeth, fasting and mostly carnivore has seemed to rectify and reverse trends in my health.
