and, what am i observing in my teeth?

it's weird. 

i mentioned i need a cleaning, and i certainly have some plaque buildup around the side of some teeth, where it meets the gumline. what i'm noticing is a very white layer develop between the gums and the buildup. and, it's hard for me to be sure what it is.

there's three possibilities:

1) my gums are accelerating recession, and exposing white enamel under the gum. that would be bad. but, it seems to be unusually white, if that's the case.

2) my teeth are remineralizing rather rapidly at the gum line. that would be good. it would explain the whiteness.

3) the plaque is rinsing off, but this seems wrong - i wouldn't expect the underlying enamel to be that white.

to be clear - it doesn't look like a white layer over the plaque, either. this is some kind of very clean teeth appearing, either from under the gum or from under the plaque.

can i deduce that much from the colour? probably not, but i can guess, anyways. and hope...

i was going to update the schedule, but then i crunched the numbers, and i'm instead wanting to double down on it.

so, the most recent concern is that constant ingestion of fluoride might be interfering with absorption, and that, because i have long been suspected of having risk factors for anemia (despite nobody ever being able to demonstrate it), i should try to focus my fluoride consumption towards a smaller part of the day, and away from times when i'm eating.

how much fluoride do i get using this method?

well, i'm trying to get about a gram in my daily treatment. at 5000 ppm - or .5% - that's 5 mg/g. i'm hoping i absorb some of it, but the research i've read is that that doesn't really actually happen in the 2-10 minutes it's in your mouth. rather, you need to eat the fluoride, have it enter your bloodstream and have it re-enter your mouth via saliva. only constant salivary application is going to actually do anything. your toothpaste may have antibacterial properties, but, if the issue is fluoride, two minutes of brushing with .1% fluoride is really a waste of time.

i'm also mixing the prevident with a novamin solution to increase the availability of calcium & phosphate. if a topical fluoride application is going to work, it needs those extra minerals, as well. that adds roughly another mg of fluoride to the spit.

so, this spit has 6 mg of fluoride minus whatever gets absorbed, and i suspect that the amount getting absorbed is minimal to nil. let's pencil it in at 0 - let's say there's 6 mg of fluoride in the spit.

if i split that up into six 850 ml glasses of water & two 350 ml cups of coffee, the amount of liquid consumed is:

6*850 + 2*350 = 5.8 L

6/5.8 = 1.03448275862

if i assume a little loss, then, that's roughly 1 mg/L - about on par with health canada's recommendations.

but, i'm not actually doing that because i'm having difficulty consuming that much food. instead, i'm splitting it into two and putting half in the coffee and half in the water. i'm only actually eating once a day, still, despite attempts to get more nutrients by eating more.

so, this is the concentration of fluoride that i've actually been consuming the last few days:

6/(.85 + .35) = 5 mg/L. exactly.

that's a lot more than i realized, a lot more than any recommendation and an amount that could very well interfere with absorption. and, i've been noticing beeturia in my urine along with tiredness and digestive cramps - indicating that it very well might be interfering with absorption.

so, i have two choices:

1) if i want to get the fluoride completely out of the way of my food, i could keep doing what i'm doing, but try to isolate it from consumption. that was my plan, but i didn't realize the concentration was that high. i was thinking it was closer to 2 mg/L - higher than the recs, but just a little. this may be more effective on my teeth if i can sync it to the remineralization cycle, but come with gastric and anemia consequences. so, i'd want to deal with that when i'm sleeping. as fluoride has a roughly 10 hour half-life in your bloodstream, it would be difficult to schedule this around a three-meal day - i'd almost have to eat twice a day, instead. but, i might do that, anyways.

2) or, i could be more careful in partitioning it and hope that watering it down minimizes it's effects on absorption - that what i'm experiencing is a consequence of consuming fluorine in too high doses, due to having risk factors for anemia, and it will dissipate if i tone it down.

and, i'm going to start with option (2) because it's less stressful on my organs. i'll admit i should have been more careful. if i move to two meals a day, i may revisit.

that means there is no update to the schedule, after all - just a renewed commitment to following it more carefully.

that also means i'm getting eight big cups of water a day - something i'm supposed to do, anyways.

6/8 = .75.

so, each "cup" will have .75 mg of fluoride in it, either at:

.75/.850 = 0.88235294117 mg/L or

.75/.350 = 2.14285714286 mg/L

i was already avoiding coffee directly before and after eating, but i'm going to adjust the time frame to three hours before meals from a half hour. i'm also going to make sure that i have the coffee after the water, no matter what. i've been modulating back and forth because i'm tired; the highly fluoridated coffee may be doing more harm than good, in terms of alertness.

so, there is a minor update to the schedule after all.

every day:

 

breakfast

- no coffee for three hours before eating.

- extra treatment? wait an hour, anyways,

- put 2 tsp [10 ml] of diluted spit into a large cup of water & drink it [recover fluoride]

- sleep in the early morning, if i have to.

every three months:

- fluoride varnish

see, despite the mountain of evidence suggesting that fluoride is broadly harmless at low levels, i suspect this might be true, as well:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27318827/

hey, listen - there's something severely wrong with virtually all of us. this concept of humans as the pinnacle of some process - be it creation or evolution - is severely flawed. we're all a bunch of broken-down, half-functioning machines pieced together from random parts. if god exists, she's more like macgyver than q. and, in the end, most of us will die because we malfunction and break down - our cells might start multiplying out of control, for example.

so, this is reality - everything you ingest, everything you do, every step you take to take care of yourself is a balancing act, a cost-benefit analysis, a weighting of what is good and bad.

i need more fluoride; i also need more iron, it seems.

let's try separating them and see what happens.

"but, fluoride works topically"

that's really a terrible misconception. it works topically, in the sense that your body delivers it via saliva. but, to actually do anything, you need a sustained source.

so, if you brush your teeth with high potency fluoride, it really doesn't do what you think it does - you'd have to leave it on your teeth for ten, fifteen hours at a time, and of course you can't do that. but, if you get it in your saliva, you get constant slow release, which is actually effective.

when they varnish your teeth, you're supposed to leave it on for 12 hours or so - and that's 23% fluoride.

so, what does this .1% fluoride toothpaste do? the answer is "not much", and that people arguing that it's ok to take the fluoride out of the water because you can just brush your teeth, and it works topically, are badly misinformed.

see, this is the consensus:

https://academic.oup.com/jn/article-abstract/55/4/611/4722095

and, that's fine - i'm not challenging it.

i'm just wondering how an existing condition, genetic or otherwise, might affect normal results.

the other thing is....

...can fluoride interfere with absorption? well, it binds to everything. it makes sense to think it could. if i have some iron absorption issues to start with, it could be compounding.

fluoride is removed from your stomach quite fast, but as it builds up in your blood (to a peak, when it's excreted...most of it is eliminated after ten hours, at most, but sustained exposure can lead to a build up), it's been theorized that it may have some effect on hemoglobin function. again: that's a reasonable hypothesis, but testing hasn't borne it out. see as one example:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16463958/

and, understand that giving a rat (which weighs much less than a kg) a constant source of 100 ppm fluoride is more than you could consume if you tried, short of injecting it.

still, this is something worth gnawing on. a basic understanding of chemistry tells you that fluorine doesn't exist in nature, on it's own. it took until 1986 to generate pure fluorine commercially - that's how hard it is to isolate. it readily ionizes in water, it's true, but you can't get it out....not by it's lonesome....

so, you put fluoride in your blood, and it's going to bind to something.

and, the flip side of the argument is that if you put fluoride in your food then you don't ingest the fluoride, either - not only does it interfere with your absorption of the vitamins, it essentially prevents you from absorbing the fluorine! it just neutralizes everything on the other side of the periodic table: potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium - all important minerals for proper bodily function. potentially...

so, (1) if you're going to consume any amount of fluoride at all, you should isolate it from meals, so it doesn't ruin the nutritional value of your food.

that includes fluoridated water - wait a half hour after drinking water, before you eat. and, drink unfluoridated water when taking food - or medication.

i'll make that adjustment, out of excessive caution.

but, what does fluoride look like when it enters your bloodstream?

it seems it enters it dissolved as an anion - as F-. in that case, it could potentially wreak havoc.

it's the only way to get it in your saliva, though, and that's the only form of it that's been proven to actually work.

regardless, i think i want to isolate this from food - once a day, before sleeping, rather than throughout the day.

so i'm going to produce another update.

am i tired because the fluoride is breaking my hemoglobin? all the science they've done says that's not how it works. but, if i'm susceptible to anemia for whatever other reason, it could conceivably be an increased risk factor.

nothing's simple, huh?

maybe the spring might be a tactical time to plan to make a move out of here, then.

i really want some resolution with the karen case, first.

no response or reply from this "ryan" character.

so, i had to sleep it off a bit more this afternoon, but i've surprised myself - it's not the fibre, after all. it's something in the first bowl. i'll flip it around tonight and add the pasta in plain (and just hold the rest) and see if that holds. then, i'll add the rest in piece by piece.

but, i've developed some beeturia in urine for the first time, suggesting i've picked up an iron deficiency.

anemia is something people have suspected of me since i was young, but nobody's ever been able to prove it. doctors keep testing me, and keep clearing me. and, i was eating beets before for weeks without much of a concern.

if you look through my diet, i'm clearly getting enough iron in bulk terms - if i eat everything. but i'm not.

something that might be true is that i was getting enough iron when i started with this, before i started skipping meals. so, there was no beeturia in the urine, at first. but, i've had difficulty consuming such a sheer amount of food, and it's let to skipped meals and an iron deficiency.

so, should i take iron pills?

no - i need to find a more efficient method to consume the root vegetables so it isn't filling me up too much and crowding out the nutrients.

so, this is what i should have done a long time ago.

but, like everything else useful, they're currently closed.

https://www.stclaircollege.ca/dental-clinic

so far, so good. i think. i thought that this morning. some gas, even, which is a good sign.

the other thing about this pile of fibre is that it takes three hours to eat it because it requires so much chewing. beets. carrots. peppers. the amount of chewing is insane.

i can eat the breakfast bowl in 20 minutes. the pasta last night took less than that. but, the carrots & beets are a project.

so, i'm going to have to revisit some of it, or maybe consider pureeing it.

second time's a charm?

i think this calls for a slippery slope argument - first time's a waiver, second time's a charm, and third time's a norm. you should see where this is going.

but, it's in a lot of ways really cosmetic, like everything this guy has done, and will do - an illusion of change, while everything stays the same under the veneer. 

there has not been meaningful civilian control of the united states military for a very, very long time. civilian spokespeople come in, and are given pre-approved plans; they may be able to choose between options, but there's no actual civilian direction. the military's been calling the shots since at least 2001, if not earlier.

so, it's easy to use language like "coup", and i've done so before, and will do so again. but, it's more like closing the door on the way out.

i have to oppose this, in principle. but, i know better than to think it's really meaningful to do so.

i drink my coffee with chocolate soy, and there is sugar in it.

so, if it's a sugar-eating bacteria, the coffee should be producing as much of a reaction as anything else.

i mean, you'd think if it was a virus then it'd at least react to the coffee, if not the water, right?

i have memories of very violently eradicating myself of ginger ale.

but, it doesn't - neither water nor coffee produce a reaction, just food. so, either my body is rejecting something i'm eating, or there's something living inside my body that only reacts to certain foods.

this is a lot of fibre. it should clear me out, as well.

and, i'm sneezing, but i have a nasty nitrogen allergy.

i'm always sneezing.

i'm getting these seeds and spices from the bulk barn, and it's really not the most hygienic way to dispense food, is it?

i want to minimize packaging, but if it's spreading bacteria....

i'm jumping to conclusions, but i might have to accept the unfortunate truth of it - it's just not a hygienic way to sell food.

yeah, that was as bad as any previous reaction. and is ongoing.

it might still be food poisoning, but it seems less likely given that i removed all the produce.

i'm going to start this morning with a much tamer combination of fibre without the spices - peppers, beets, carrots, cheese & soy. no garlic, no lime, no pepper, no frank's. and, we'll see what happens.

it doesn't feel like a virus; my only symptom is a gnawing stomach ache after i eat. i needed to go out today, but i'll wait until i've convinced myself thoroughly. so, it could be tonight instead.

at least my schedule is proper, for once.

i used to eat a lot of tuna, and it never killed me, although i wonder about the mercury.

i have almost no experience with shellfish...

my father had a scallop allergy, and it almost killed him once. but, i think this problem predates the anchovies, meaning they're the least likely suspect in the pile.

on second thought, i am getting the same reaction from the first bowl, so what i'll need to do is reverse the order, tomorrow.

and, take a nap for right now.

thankfully, i haven't added anything to the bowl yet, besides vegetables, and they'll keep for a few hours at room temperature.

so, what are the potential problems?

- rancid seeds

- reaction to the probiotic yogurt

- while i've been drinking soy milk for years with no problems, i changed brands recently.

- random allergy

or, maybe i am sick after all, and i'm just unable to eat. but, it's the only symptom.

i'll try again in a few hours.

yup.

no reaction.

gotta be plant, of some sort, that's doing this. next step....

so, i've barely eaten since the day i pointed out that i was sure i was reacting to something - and i am sure i was reacting to something. it took a few days to pass, and seems ok, now. i'm hoping i can get back in schedule, but i'm old enough to know i binge and starve and i'm deluding myself in thinking i'm going to stop.

it's not really feasible to eat one item at a time, like i said.

i'm pretty sure i'm eating too much fibre at once and need to tone it down. to test that, i've removed the vegetables from the pasta, which actually leaves a much smaller - and cheaper - bowl: pasta, soy milk (1/2), sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, nutritional yeast, pepper, anchovy, yogurt (1/2) & cheese (1/2). i also put a touch of hot sauce and a touch of mustard. this sauce is not acidic.

it's not bad, but it's not nutritious enough - although it's pretty nutritious, don't be confused. i need some vegetables, even if i change the ones i use. the peppers (vitamin c) & beets (betaine) have specific purposes, but the need for this onslaught of carrots is less clear.

this was also a much faster meal to consume. i'm finishing this up, and i'll be on to the fibre shortly - red pepper, carrot, beet, lime, garlic, cheese (1/2), soy milk (1/2), yogurt (1/2), pepper & a dash of hot sauce. if the second part bunches up my stomach, we've found our problem; otherwise, i might be looking at an interaction, and i'll want to bring one plant in at a time.

it feels good to finish this.

this is just a temporary post to split it off. there is a very big post coming...

that said, i've added data for soy & yogurt, and it has filled out the chart for almost everything. the anchovies & spices should take care of the rest of it.

and, now it's time to eat it - something i haven't been doing, lately. ironically. it's the sleeping; i get scared to eat.
