Your teeth are a direct symptom of your gut health. My suggestion is to increase foods rich in Boron and phosphorus. And Foods rich in K2 to mineralise the body and follow a detoxification protocol to elevate toxins and excess mucus stopping nutrients being absorbed and a plant diet.

Phosphorus is an important mineral used as a material when building cell membrane and nucleic acids, among other roles.

In short these minerals keep your muscles, teeth and bones strong.

Recommended Daily Dietary Amount (RDA) of Boron:

  • Age, Pregnancy or LactationUpper Limit of Boron1-3 years old3 mg/day
  • 4-8 years old6 mg/day
  • 9-13  years old11 mg/day
  • 14-18 years old17 mg/day
  • 19-50 years old20 mg/day
  • Pregnant women (over 18 years old)17-20 mg/day
  • Breastfeeding women (over 18 years old)20-25 mg/day
