Wheatgrass for Oral Health
By Gloria Gilbčre, N.D., D.A.Hom., Ph.D.
Over 50% of Americans have moderate to severe gum disease – a silent, mostly
painless, chronic, communicable, bacterial infection that goes undetected until
serious symptoms manifest.
Additionally, research confirms gum disease increases the risk of
cardiovascular disease and immune system disorders.
I know first-hand the seriousness of gum disease which is common in immuno-compromised
individuals. Your “pearly whites” might be pretty, but they must have strong
tissues to stay in your mouth.
Identifying Gum Disorders:
Gingivitis – local inflammation, swelling, bleeding gums (no loss of bone)
Periodontal Disease – loss of connective tissue and bone
I've written extensively about my fondness for the overall health benefits of
wheatgrass juice in my book Invisible Illnesses. However, not commonly
recognized are the wonderful oral health benefits of wheatgrass.
Why Wheatgrass?
Because it:
- Destroys harmful germs and microbes
- Is a natural immune booster
- Contains concentrated chlorophyll (protection from carcinogens)
- Neutralizes cell toxins
- Contains liquid oxygen
- Neutralizes bacteria (preventing halitosis)
- Contains exogenous enzymes (powerful detoxifiers)
I've witnessed, both personally and professionally, the unsurpassed reversal
of gum inflammation when wheatgrass juice is applied topically.
Most of us don't have the time, or inclination, to juice daily. I've
experimented and I've had great success with a protocol using a powdered,
certified organic, kosher wheatgrass juice concentrate from
Sheldon Farm.
Wheatgrass juice concentrate from
Sheldon Farm is the original product I
learned to enjoy and trust – remember, all wheatgrass is not grown, nourished,
harvested or freeze-dried the same. There IS a difference in quality and
effectiveness and this is why I use the original wheatgrass juice concentrate
from
Sheldon Farm.
Your Green Therapy for Healthy Gums
Bedtime:
-Brush & floss as usual
-Brush with reconstituted wheat grass juice concentrate
-Soak gauze strips in juice, apply under lips onto gums
-Allow gauze to remain as long as possible (through the night). Don't worry,
your green teeth will be pearly white in the morning and your breath will be
fresh.
This protocol, for my clients and for me, has achieved unsurpassed results
when used regularly.
