The Dental Diet: The Surprising Link between Your Teeth, Real Food, and Life-Changing Natural Health

Informative and useful info. Able to put into practice. Easily digestible chapters. Amazing to learn about how the gut affects the teeth. I feel this book has helped boost our familles understanding of dental hygiene and how diet affects our teeth. Would recommend.

Informative & Life changing

Found the book really interesting, but will not be participating fully in the diet, although I do agree with his way of thinking that what we eat has a huge impact on our whole body and health. It is just not that easy to buy and get all the natural foods. Perhaps if I was younger and had a family I would try harder, However before reading the book I had been trying to balance my gut microbiomes, eat less sugar, refined and processed foods, make and drink kefir and take VitD3. I use a toothpaste without sodium laurel sulphate and 3 or 4 times a week do oil pulling, rub coconut oil on my gums with some zylotol as well as using dental brushes and floss. Since doing this my gums have improved immensely and my dentist is extremely pleased with me!

Some good scientific explanations about what goes on with gums from this dentist and his book is far better than the other book in Amazon called Cure Gum Disease Naturally. But fact is it's clear there needs to be a lot more research into the cause of gum problems because all we really have at this point is a doctor in the early 20th century who travelled the world looking at indigenous people's good teeth and gums then comparing it with the deterioration that happened when those same types of people adopted a Western diet. The info has not caught up with modern nutrition either - yes the fat soluble vitamins A, D and K2 are key to dental health, but that does not mean we need to kill ourselves with saturated fat. That said, I don't see any other books out there tackling weak gums, so kudos to Mr Lin as being one of the only dentists to look at nutrition (cause) instead of just treating symptoms.

This book makes a lot of sense. It’s very easy to read and takes you through the reasoning behind the changes Dr Lin suggests people should make to their diet to benefit not just the teeth but the whole body. It’s very much a meat eaters diet. As someone who will eat fish (because I personally believe you have to be extra vigilant to get all the essential vitamins and minerals required for a healthy diet if you are vegetarian or vegan, and I’m not), I can adapt the diet to get all the necessary nutrients. True vegetarians and especially vegans may struggle but it could/should be possible. Whatever the ethics of your chosen diet it’s worth a read.

What a find this book is! I read the whole book in two short days - I literally couldn’t put it down. The depth and breath of information presented in this book is phenomenal, it’s put together brilliantly, and is such an easy read too. Refreshingly, this is a dental health book that considers all aspects of human health and more importantly the interconnectedness of many of our systems, in addressing all this, Dr Lin work takes on a bio- psycho- social perspective! I can’t recommend it enough, this book is a must for everyone, whether you’re a dentist, health professional, or lay person - it’s something to sink your teeth into (sorry couldn’t resist the pun)

Amazing book, easy to read, nice diagrams, it is a book that perfectly informs and enables you to implement what he is saying. A note to anyone who is trying the diet - its basically a variation on the paleo/ketogenic diet, the dip that he and anyone who tries it will go through is keto flu but diet s defiantly worth doing. This book is so good I had to write my first amazon review

A very well researched book written in an approachable style, with complex concepts explained in a digestible way. The dental food pyramid rocks! It starts with the teeth, but the implications of the nutrition plan proposed by Dr Lin are truly holistic. Highly recommended for parents. Don't be surprised if your children start reading it too...

La información del libro reafirmo lo que vengo estudiando, y me encantó que traiga recetas

I bought these 4 books recently: 1.Cure Tooth Decay: Heal And Prevent Cavities With Nutrition 2.Holistic Dental Care: The Complete Guide to Healthy Teeth and Gums 3. The Dental Diet: The Surprising Link between Your Teeth, Real Food, and Life-Changing Natural Health 4. Cure Gum Disease Naturally: Heal and Prevent Periodontal Disease and Gingivitis with Whole Foods They're all good books in their own way. You actually just need one of books as they're all quite similar. What I learned is you need fat soluble vitamins like K2, D3, A and calcium/magnesium. Protein is beneficial while too many carbohydrates/starches/fruits might hinder the healing process. All authors promote an animal-based diet while Ramiel Nagel calls the vegetarian diet as inferior while I personally have no judgment. All authors suggest to avoid refined grains and processed sugars. I personally enjoyed Holistic Dental Care a tad more due to its simplicity. All of these books will change the way you think, eat, act and essentially live. It was important for me to buy multiple books on the same topic so I can get a broader view on the serious matter at hand; doctors, dentists, and fashionable diets are not here to love and care for you. This will take you down to the dragon's lair as you explore health. Skin health Hair health Nail health Mouth health Mental health Emotional health Digestive health Organ health Spiritual health Planetary health Cosmic health In fact, health is just right under our nose and inside our mouths. Becareful what you put inside your gate/orifice/mouth and becareful what comes out of it with curses/words/oaths/jinxes/hexes. You always have a choice to eat or to fast, to take or to give and to die or to thrive. Poison can be packaged into the most delightful, enticing, sweet and creamy dessert. Resist the temptations. It will pass. Don't feed the parasites/cravings. Be strong and be a warrior of health. You will heal. I will heal. We will heal.

Excellent livre sur l'alimentation. Qu'est-ce qui, dans notre alimentation, provoque les problèmes dans notre bouche et par la suite dans tout le corps. Très bien expliqué de A à Z. Tout est très clair et cela nous donne les moyens d'améliorer notre santé. Critique de l'alimentation industrielle très justifiée et documentée. Conseillé à tout le monde, surtout aux médecins, diététiciens et tous ceux qui veulent améliorer leur santé en commençant par les dents, la bouche et tout le corps.

This is the best book I’ve read on nutrition, in general, and dental health in particular! I simply couldn’t stop reading til I finished it. Not only does make so much sense, it’s doable. And it explains why much of the medical advice typically given has been wrong and has led to poorer health. In looking for info on bone health I found this, and now I know that better dental health will lead to better gut health which will lead to better bone health, and better health overall. I already started today!

A great read and great insight into what we put in our mouths and how the preparation of food makes such a difference to our health and teeth. Already have put some good practices in place around food preparation and what to feed my kids and family as a whole
