Summary

The last time I did a video about toothpaste it got censored! Damn big toothpaste ruining the party...

JK... I think that video was taken down because I talked about #chocolatecake too much in it, so I'll leave that out of this one. If you want all of my uncensored opinion, sign up for my controversial newsletter at heartandsoil.co

I have many concerns about toothpaste, but the biggest are antibacterial compounds that disrupt the nitrate producing oral microbiome and fluoride.

Learn about all the details behind these crazy ideas in this week's edition of Controversial Thoughts!

0:00.0	What is up you guys? Welcome to another edition of Controversial Thoughts.
0:04.7	I'm Carnivore MD. The last video that I did on Instagram and which I talked about toothpaste
0:10.7	got censored. I'm pretty sure it wasn't censored because I was talking about toothpaste,
0:16.0	but let's just cross our fingers. This one doesn't get censored. Pretty sure that if I don't talk
0:20.8	about, quote, chocolate cake, wink, wink, or any other super controversial topics like that in
0:26.9	this video, this one will remain. And judging by the amount of interest I've gotten in questions
0:32.2	about toothpaste, mouthwash, and oral hygiene, I do want to get this video out. This video kind of
0:38.5	started as a joke. I thought, oh, maybe I'll do a video about toothpaste. And then everybody wanted
0:42.0	to hear about toothpaste and why it was bad. My whole life, I brushed my teeth with toothpaste
0:46.0	until I realized what a scam this thing is. Look, I'm going to go through all the ingredients
0:50.8	in normal toothpaste. Why you don't want to be killing bacteria in your mouth by mouthwash,
0:54.3	which is a horrible thing. I'm certainly not a fan of fluoride. It makes absolutely no sense to
0:58.4	be putting that amount of a mineral into your mouth, into your body. Certainly, there's a little bit
1:04.6	of fluoride in our drinking water and in some places in the world, but we know very clearly that too
1:10.4	much fluoride is very harmful for humans. And we should not need fluoride to have healthy bacteria,
1:17.2	resistentee. So let's just start with that piece. If you guys have not listened to the podcast,
1:22.7	I did with Stephen Lynn on my podcast, which is fundamental health, you should go do that in
1:27.2	conjunction with this video. Because if you care about your teeth and your oral health, you need to
1:31.6	know the answer to the question that we answered in that video, which is what causes tooth decay.
1:36.1	And the quick answer is not bacteria in your mouth. It's not eating sugar. It's not as simple as that.
1:42.5	Sugar simply is not the cause of tooth decay. It certainly can worsen tooth decay when you are
1:47.1	nutritionally inadequate. And when you have a deficiency of, wait for it, drum roll fat soluble
