  • Does Xylitol gum work? I decided to try it for 30 days after many comments on my past Xylitol video recommended me try it out. Long story short, yes it does work and it did keep my oral hygiene pristine throughout the day. So keep watching if you want to learn about the experiment I did, the products I used and also my hypothesis as to why Xylitol gum worked and Xylitol pulling didn't work.

    The person who created and sells the Zellie’s gum and mints is a retired dentist who has been preaching the benefits of xylitol for decades. She also has a “complete mouth care system” (a selection of recommend products that you can buy in most US grocery stores), which she lists for free on her website. She also has a UA-cam channel where she talks about her system, xylitol, and related topics. Search for Dr. Ellie Phillips to find her.
    Note:
    Per Dr. Ellie, drinking water essentially washes away the good bacteria you worked so hard to create with the xylitol. It’s best to have your xylitol AFTER drinking or eating anything, including water, to generate saliva and stimulate good bacteria production, creating and maintaining a healthy biofilm in your mouth.

    The 600 pcs bag of Zellies save you a lot.
    If you go for the PUR, stick with the Spearmint flavor, they're the only ones without counterproductive ingredients for your goal.
    Try to don't chew for too long because it can reduce your saliva, within 5 minutes is ok.
    Afterward, don't eat or drink for as long as possible to maximize the effects of your saliva (with xylitol), because continuously sipping water would negate them.
    If you breathe through your mouth sleeping, try mouth taping; it also helps with oral hygiene and, in the long run, the re-mineralizing effect of xylitol✌🏼

    Dr Ellie Phillips has great videos on this & is the owner of Zellies company. She put together a whole system using products you buy from the store. Also Incorporating the Zellies mints. I started taking those & my dental hygienist just said, “ well you had less plaque, so you are doing something different. “. I just said Aha & left it at that. If they ask what you’re doing differently, I would just say rinsing with Listerine mouth wash, which IS part of the oral care system I’m using. BTW, she also says constantly sipping water also wears down the enamel. We all need hydration but, It can also wear the teeth if you do it all day long. That Is why Dr Phillips says when you take any Xylitol, you should try not to eat or drink anything for at least an hour. Because even drinking water disrupts the correct PH of your saliva that helps heal your teeth. You can use Xylitol up to 5 times a day. The xylitol crystals can be diluted in water first before using. But I really enjoy the mints, because you can just eat those 2 at a time.

    All fruits have Xylitol in them plus lots of good minerals. It is a custome in our culture (Iran/Persia) that we have a few fruits during the day specially after dinner while chatting to each other. Maybe that's your next project to try it for a month and see the result. Just make sure to use test organic fruits for a month and maybe non-organic for another month to see the result on your body.

    "...whereas erythritol ALSO distinctly inhibited the growth of some S. mutans strains during later growth phases." - this implies that erythritol is a lot better (compared to xylitol) because it not only performs similarly to xylitol but also offers the additional benefit of inhibiting bacterial growth at the end of the growth cycle.

      ​@@humanyoda Yes, but erythritol works just the same in this aspect, and additionally, inhibits bacterial growth during later stages of the growth cycle (more than xylitol). So, from my understanding, xylitol is not as effective for old plaque that remains in the mouth, but both are quite good at killing bacteria just after a meal, and some time after.

    I don't know about xylitol pulling but from what I know about how and why xylitol work is exposure. Also you CHEW the mint like you chew the gum. You don't suck it. The mint is better than the gum in my opinion haha. Like if you snack throughout the day, drinks soft drinks throughout the day the more exposure of bad stuff the more likely you get cavity, plaque, tartar. Xylitol works the same way. Expose your teeth to it 4-5 times a day and you'll be golden. Just 1 exposure for 10min in some pulling session isn't going to do much good I don't think. After you eat something chew a xylitol gum or mint. It should then prevent bacteria sticking to your teeth or harming your teeth.
    My bf went from 2 different dentist telling him he's very likely going to need a root canal to just monitor it. After I made him take xylitol 5 times a day. He still only just brush his teeth once a day. LOL... Soo...... I mean he's just 1 person. But I have never had any sign of tooth decay, I don't floss, I don't get dental cleaning. Dentist always tells me I don't need to do anything. So I really think the key is really in exposure frequency. I however have always had immaculate dental health so I can't say xylitol has reversed anything for me but for my bf it totally has.

    What is the “end of the growth cycle”? Is this when cavities are already formed rather than inhibiting new ones ?

    • @MasterEverydayLiving
      @MasterEverydayLiving  Місяць тому +2

      From my understanding, bacteria goes through a rapid growth phase followed by levelling off. So where the bacteria levels off is where I am assuming the "end of the growth cycle" to be.
      Here are some curves of S. Mutans and their growth cycles. www.researchgate.net/figure/Streptococcus-mutans-growth-curves-in-various-bacterial-media-A-small-aliquot-of-an_fig1_221967815

    Question, have you tried to warm the Coconut oil before doing oil pulling?

    • @MasterEverydayLiving
      @MasterEverydayLiving  2 місяці тому +5

      How hot are we talking about? I usually just melt the coconut oil in my mouth when doing oil pulling. One thing with heating of oil is that if you for example boil it, the oil will lose some of its good qualities. This is why cold-pressed often recommended (oil that has been extracted without the use of heat) as it is seen as a higher quality oil due to its processing method.

      For me, I actually get noticeable tummy aches from consuming Xylitol. This is why I switched over to Xylitol crystals where I make sure to contain it all in my mouth and spit it out after 5 or so minutes. There are studies that also show that consuming large amounts of Xylitol can lead to increased rates of heart attack and stroke.
      Here is a video I made on the recent study talking about the risks of Xylitol - ua-cam.com/video/mGeTmH4v6Wk/v-deo.html

Just saying how it feels doesn't really tell me what the benefit was after 30 days. There is also lots of sugar-free gum on the market that has Xylitol as the primary or first ingredient other than the ones that you showed such as orbit, Mentos, trident. There's so many to choose from that also tastes pretty good and are soft and the flavor last a long time there's no reason for anybody to limit themselves to the two choices that you offered.

Note, the main part of the study actually was about NATURALLY OCURRING xylitol in the body.

So gum after meals seems to me personally to be pretty safe - post meal conditions, and small quantity.

      This is what I found online. "In both people and dogs, the level of blood sugar is controlled by the release of insulin from the pancreas. In people, xylitol does not stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreas. However, it’s different in canines: When dogs eat something containing xylitol, the xylitol is more quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, and may result in a potent release of insulin from the pancreas."
      So we process foods differently from our pets. There are many normal food items that are toxic to lets say dogs in this scenario but not humans like grapes, avocados, garlic, macadamia nuts, mustard seeds, onions, raisins and so on.
