From as long back as I can remember, my dad, Dr. Crandall always had us gargling with Hydrogen Peroxide. We did it after flossing, and NOT more than every other day. His position: it was a fantastic anti-microbial that was highly effective and very, very inexpensive.
Not until we started this research was the wisdom of his ways made clear.
In this article: Effects of hydrogen peroxide on growth and selected properties of Porphyromonas Gingivalis, you’ll see that H202 (hydrogen peroxide) at a concentration of 3% (the standard product you’ll buy at the grocery store in the brown bottle) is able to completely inhibit the growth of P. Gingivalis above your gum line.
And if the cause of your dementia is this oral bacteria, then this easy step will help you prevent further infection to take once a week for your own Alzheimer’s prevention program! In fact, research supports a 1:1 relationship between periodontal disease severity and the speed by which Alzheimer’s progresses. Meaning, the more severe your gum disease, the shorter your life span will be following an Alzheimer’s diagnosis. So whatever you can do to help improve your gum disease (according to the NIH: More than 42% of all adults older than 30 have some form of gum disease and almost 8% have severe periodontal disease; and in another recent body of work, it’s been estimated that periodontal disease affects an estimated 47% of adults over age 30 and 70% of adults over age 65 ) – would be highly recommended.
Remember, H2O2 is slightly acidic, so rinse your mouth after gargling. And do not gargle for more than 90 seconds (it kills the Covid Virus after 60 seconds) and do not swallow (you’ll throw up) or get it in your eyes (it can cause blindness).
This is a Practical Principle of Protection
In our Keeping your Mind Alzheimer’s Prevention program, we discuss how to use Hydrogen Peroxide safe and effectively. Please contact us to learn when our next session that addresses this oral hygiene protocol as well as a number of others, will be offered near you!
Please note: this will not cure Periodontal Disease, as this serious gum tissue infection is a condition where the P. Gingivalis bacteria (and other aggressive anaerobic bacteria) has burrowed so deep inside your gum tissue that it can only be physically removed and treated with antibiotics to avoid any left over bacteria from recolonizing.
