I am 59 and have been trying to work to lose some weight for several years. I am 5'7 tall and was 204 pounds three months ago, I have been that heavy for a decade. I have been on cholesterol and hypertension medication for more than a decade and I have a fatty liver. I decided to drop all carbs and alcohol three months ago. I eat lots of vegetables, meat, nuts, peanut butter, bacon. love bacon, plain yogurt too with some artificial sweetener for a treat.
So far I have lost 20 pounds and I feel great. I am not adding fat to my diet, but I am not avoiding it either. I think my liver is better, but I am waiting for tests on that in 2 months. My goal is to get down to 170, the weight I was when I was 25. My wife no longer complains about me having bad breath and I have tons of energy. I am always a little hungry but it's never serious. I eat as much as I like, but I have been religious about zero carbs and alcohol. For me, I haven't felt this good in 20 years.

Very interesting video. It's not just just tooth decay that became more common, our jawlines changed. As late as 250 years ago people had bigger jaws, having enough room for all of their teeth, while today many have to pull teeth before having braces. This affects things like breathing, making sleep apnea a modern problem. One of the big changes that happened was how babies ate. Blenders weren't a thing back then, they were breastfed while slowly starting to eat normal food, starting solids later and skipping the mush fase. Babies were also breastfed much longer, for several years, effecting the development of the jaw as well as boosting the immune system.

Teeth don't depend I think on toothpaste. ) Of course most modern researches says vise versa, then cleaner your teeth are the better they would be. BUT in that period the people that had suppuration died quickly. Now we try to cure all possible damages beginning with caries. Teeth and the condition of them depends on blood, thyroid gland and mumps / If you in childhood had mumps ( piggy ) You can have problem with calcium in blood. Stress, chemicals if you work with them also damage teeth / My mom was working restoring objects all her life, had lost her teeth almost all after she have gave birth to us both with brother / I never saw her with natural teeth

You should do a video on how Paleolithic man worked less than modern man, was healthier, and lived just as long (although infant mortality was higher, once Paleolithic humans survived past two years, they usually loved into their 60s, didn't know of the zoonotic diseases that haunt us today, etc. There's a whole lot of misconceptions about Paleolithic life all based in the Hobbesian notion that life before civilization was Nasty, brutish, and short, when in reality anthropologists now know that once we switches to domestication and civilization, we actually had a shorter lifespan, worse health, terrible nutrition, etc.

Ancient Roman skeletons have very good teeth. It was the advent of refined sugar that sped up the decline of oral health. Plus the teeth of paleolithic people show signs of dietary stress. They often went through periods of famine which shows up in the teeth. That's why humans transitioned to agriculture. To have a more reliable food source. People have a tendency to idealize the hunter gatherer way of life.

Modern dentistry is a fraud.
Over 40 cavities in as many adult years, and still not one dentist can tell me why this is so high, or even offer me some clues. The only thing they can do with some proficiency is drill, fill and bill. Basically, not much more esteemed or qualified than your average auto mechanic, fixing a flat tire.

Its not the teeth its what is eaten. In England for example, most water used in tea was rancid. They put excessive amounts of sugar in tea to kill the acidic taste. Generation after generation. Back then human diet consisted of animals and vegetables. Today its tons of sugar, countless chemicals. And its systemic also.

I challenge your statistic regarding tooth decay in Neanderthals: When I eat meat it jams between molars and I have to use dental floss to remove it. This must have happened with them but no dental floss. The meat rots and so does the tooth. But I have to agree that sugar is bad stuff for teeth and diabetes.

Fluoride is not helping anyone with cavities, that is a myth. Besides that, everyone's tap water is already full of fluoride, at least in the America. If your local water supply doesn't already have enough Fluoride they add to it. Even if fluoride was good for your teeth, it wouldn't make since to drink it.

I've been on the no-sugar keto diet for 4 years. When I went in for a dental checkup after 3 years the clinician said during my cleaning that there was very little build-up and when I told her it had been 3+ years since my last dental visit she was shocked.
It's the sugar. Stop. Eating. Sugar.

Brushing and flossing are merely topical treatments; they do nothing to address or treat dietary deficiencies which lead to tooth decay. Another reason modern dentistry is an outright fraud. It merely treats the symptoms and completely ignores the causes of dental carries and rampant tooth decay.

Unfortunately for you, I have something called superior genetics. My one super power is I inherited my moms super teeth. Essentially, even if I dont brush, or get any fluoride, my teeth probably wont fall out until Im like 90 years old. Pretty lame super power, but a good story!

Im dumping the grains, fruits and veggies; switching to primarily animal foods; eggs, salmon, butter, cream, lard, tallow, pork, chicken, beef, avocado, olive oil, nuts and yogurt. Ive spent a decade eating a vegetarian diet, and two more years vegan.

Look into a Dr weston price who did research in the 1920s on the modern diets and it's effects on teeth compared to tribals who stayed away from modern civilisation and its diets. Once you do you'll realise the processed food we eat is virtually poison

Brains got bigger which means heads got taller but our faces didn't move upwards at all. Now there's a bunch on empty space on our faces called foreheads. We should evolve something cool like a can opener on our foreheads lol

Modern tooth decay isn't a mystery is all the cane sugar, syrup, fructose and all the preservatives to extend shelf life plus all the other chemical junk they put in the food from childhood to adult.

So what kind of dietary changes are ideal for dental health? I don't think I consume a lot of sugar, mostly fruit and I halve the sugar in baking recipes. Don't think I could give up carbs though.
