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.

...and, my hydroxyapatite just shipped from 'leetsdale, pennylvania, a no doubt exceedingly wealthy suburb of pittsburgh, located plonk on the ohio river.

that's just up the interstate.

it could be here tomorrow.

there is also a dental school around the corner, and they may offer discounts.

hrmmn.

let me see if i can contact them.

so, they should cover the fluoride treatment, too - because the water isn't fluoridated:

they should actually cover the root planing.

good. that's what i really need.

if i can convince them i need to special coverage due to the cyproterone, i might be able to get a graft mostly covered.

it's discretionary, so i need to write an essay and talk them into it. they usually cover diabetics and people on diuretic medicines - and i am on diuretics. i mean, it's legit, even if it's an excuse, it's just not the most common claim.

right now, i'm more worried about cleaning them. but, that's the next thing coming up.

https://www.accerta.ca/usercontent/2018_January_MCSS_Schedule_of_Dental_Services_and_Fees_FINAL1.pdf

you know, the nhs covers gum grafts....

i'm reading up on gums, now, and i don't seem to have any sign of gum disease, exactly.

my gums don't bleed. ever.

they're firm, not flabby. they're pink, not red.

but, they are receding. and, while i do overbrush, and admit it, i'm wondering if it's just genetic. we get old and fall apart....

if i'm going to fix the gums, i want to try to do it using biological tactics as well - stem cells, gene editing, skin grafts, etc - and not using engineering methods ("gum surgery"). and, these tactics are at least mature. but, trying to get them covered might be a challenge.

the grafts are a pretty routine surgery, from what i understand, and something i'd let them do. so, i'll need to ask if that's something covered by "extended coverage", which i think i can get because my medication lists "dry mouth" as a symptom.

i mean, it seems to be pretty inert, right now.

why fix something that's not broken?

we don't know.

but, we can be sure that, while vaccines will reduce mortality in certain demographics, it will also spur evolution in healthy subgroups. what doesn't kill a virus will make it stronger.

i suspect we may realize in the end that mass vaccination was a mistake, and we should have targeted the vulnerable, instead.

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-02544-6

we don't even know if it works, yet - or how long it will work for.

the continuing stupidity is just astounding.

i've never received a flu shot in my life, but i expect i'll start getting them when i'm older. as it is, the chances of me getting vaccinated before 2040 are pretty slim - and the chances of me getting vaccinated over 2021 are exactly 0.

my chromebook is trying to get me to restart to "install flash".

in 2020.

that doesn't even make any sense - i'm in guest mode. i can't install extensions.

listen, pigs. i'm in guest mode. that means i can't even access the kernel. i'm in the most restricted mode possible, and i have to be, because it's the only way you'll let me do anything. 

you can't install anything on this machine. i can't, either.

i am going to mail my foia request tomorrow. i didn't realize the counter was closed; i was waiting for my gst check to clear. i should have done it last week. whatever. 

when it gets here, i will take the documents to the justice and attempt to have this woman charged and arrested - as she should be. she's a liar and a crook. it's no doubt long overdue.

and, you can spy on me all you want, in the mean time. i don't know what you're looking for, but i'm really as boring as i look - there's nothing to find.

to be clear: this bill still doesn't go far enough in removing statist restrictions around personal bodily autonomy.

however, it's another incremental step in the right direction towards full self-ownership, and the right thing to do is support the bill and wait for the court to tear it down, again.

throw the fucker out of caucus.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/liberal-mp-marcus-powlowski-maid-c7-assisted-dying-lametti-1.5833493

ok. this is about the time of day i want to wake up at.

let's try again.

no.

still exhausted.

i don't get it, but whatever.

i'm a night person.

fuck the sun.

i'm going to drink a lot of coffee and try to wake up and get started.

i didn't want to sleep all night, i wanted to work all night. let's hope i can do an all-nighter tonight to compensate.

all of this unwanted sleeping is really screwing up my schedule and disorienting me badly.

like, what day is it?

wednesday?

what the fuck?

you're going to tell me i'm delusional, but i think my teeth are already getting better.

insofar as that's true, i may have scraped some shit off them, and demonstrated there's nothing wrong with them. but, it's just becoming more and more apparent as they clean up more and more.

i could still use some kind of strengthening one way or the other, and i'll still take the cleaning if i can get it. but that one i was worried about? doesn't seem so bad, anymore. at least half of the plaque is gone.

if that's the case, they could be in great shape for when the hydroxyapatite gets here.

if this is going to work, the teeth have to be clean. that's one of the excuses that dentists want to throw at you - you can't just remineralize, because your teeth are full of bioplaque. so, let's get the fucking bioplaque off then, eh? so, i need to keep up with the surfactants, which are what i think is making the actual difference - it is probably the cleaner teeth that is letting the toothpaste work better.

now, as to how to fix the gums? i don't have any ideas for that one.

i got an email back from palmolive telling me i was fucking bonkers, and trying to sell me some actual toothpaste. i thought about telling them to fuck off, but decided it'd be best to ignore them. so, i don't know what the ppm for these biocides actually are. if it's for use with dish soap, it can't be that different than mouth wash, though, right?

fucking patents. we gotta get rid of those...patience, friends....we will win in the end....

wow, what a complete piece of shit.

just when you think they can't sink to new lows, this guy thinks he has some kind of right to decide if somebody can kill themselves or not.

the arrogance is just baffling. 

https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/conservatives-prepared-to-debate-assisted-dying-bill-around-the-clock-o-toole-1.5221886

the problem is basically that this generation of liberals doesn't understand economics. at all.

they think that inflation will siphon wealth upwards, rather than lead to poverty and crime and increased social spending, and they're looking to squeeze the poor as hard as they can in order to do it.

what you will see is long lines at the food bank, and rotting food on the shelves.

but, this is what they want, and we're going to have to suffer through it.

yeah, the liberals seem to be excited about this, actually.

but, i tell ya - i'm not paying for it. nor is anybody around here.

if the price of junk food goes up, whatever. i don't eat it anyways.

but, if the price of produce goes up, it's just going to rot on the shelf, as people find ways around it.

https://globalnews.ca/news/7508030/canadian-families-groceries-cost-2021/

ok, i figured it out.

calcium hydroxyapatite pills are on their way.

they come in a gelatin capsule that i'll need to break open, and i'll have to see - if i mildly wet it, will it create a topical? 

i'm going to separate the fluoride from it for now, and use it to "catch" the calcium & phosphate molecules that leach out.

why are all these sites forcing me to pick premium shipping options?

why can't i just pick the cheapest option?

i'm not paying $20 for shipping. that's stupid.

this is recent and they claim they basically figured it out.

i don't have access to the tools they do.

but it's a proof of concept. 

i repeat: this is a recent (oct, 2020), peer reviewed article claiming that they were able to rebuild cavitated teeth using hydroxyapatite and fluoride gelatin.

i'm on the right track.

https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsomega.0c03125

i got this from an indian journal trying to remove the fluoride from the water. idiots. 

it's the chemical reactions i wanted to see, in a legible form. no stupid pictures.

so, that's at about ph 4.8, and you see what happens - the enamel dissolves in acidic water into a dicalcium phosphate and a calcium hydroxide. that's without fluoride.

but, then the sodium fluoride breaks down into sodium, hydroxide and hydrofluoric acid. yikes. that would make everything worse. more acid. the hydroxyl overpowers, thankfully.

...and then the fluoride spontaneously regenerates the matrix, into fluoropatite, which gets reabsorbed by your teeth. no such regeneration of the initial hydroxypatite seems possible - what they call "remineralization" seems restricted to parts of the matrix that suffer acid erosion, in the sense that hydrogen peels off the hydroxyl, leaving behind the calcium phosphate.

so, that means that if i bathed my teeth in calcium & phosphate & fluoride, the best i could hope for is fluoropatite, because it's only the distorted matrix that gets uploaded. it won't reform hydroxyapatite. but, what if i give it hydroxyapatite, in addition to fluoride? the studies seem to suggest it works.

now, there's another article here by the cda:

https://www.cda-adc.ca/jcda/vol-69/issue-11/722.pdf

...and i get the point - you can't remineralize with the building blocks. because we don't know how.

but, it doesn't address remineralizing with the finished product.

the fact is that i have nothing to lose in trying except a few bucks.

naw, i'd have to buy diammonium hydrogen phosphate, and that costs more than the hydroxyapatite pills in the first place.

sneaky abstract - the eggshells are just a source of calcium carbonate.

that said, i could recycle the eggshells like that. if i want to brave the salmonella...

eureka?

i have lots of eggshells and am constantly producing more.

let's see if i can figure this out.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0167577X99001184

so, should i find a place for bones in my diet?

it's topical - i'd have to chew them.

i dunno about that.

let's see if the capsules help, first.

osteophagy is actually fairly widespread, even in herbivores.

the article claim they're looking for phosphates to build bone matter. but, that's not really how it works, is it?

i wonder if they're not looking to suck the hydroxyapatite off the bones.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteophagy

yeah, i'm going with the lattice.

i don't think this is something that can be answered clearly. i need to go on a hunch. so, don't take what i'm about to say totally seriously - yet.

it seems like the only way we know how to put these molecules - calcium, phosophate & a hydroxyl goup - together is using a specialized kind of cell called an ameloblast that disappears in early childhood. it seems like we can give our bodies as much calcium and as much phosphate as we want, but we don't really know what to do with it. we could maybe fix that with stem cells, by growing teeth in a lab and implanting them or with crispr technology - and that might not be very far in the future. but, for right now, this is a puzzle that eludes our biology. we see the pieces of the puzzle, but we can't put them together properly.

hydroxyapatite is insoluble in water, and thankfully so - otherwise our teeth would fall apart. but, solubility increases as ph decreases, because it reacts with the free hydrogen in the water. there seems to be a perception that this is reversible if you increase the ph in your mouth, but i think the point is that it isn't - that once we strip the calcium, and the phosphates, out of the lattice, we don't know how to rebuild the lattice.

but, we've figured out that the lattice seems to spontaneously rebuild in the presence of fluoride, and that we seem to uptake it quite readily once it does. for that reason, our teeth end up replaced by a different molecule - fluoropatite - that contains calcium, phosphate & fluoride. this substitution is actually beneficial, but others - such as replacing calcium with carbonate - are not.

but, we have little control over it. we don't know how to put the pieces back together, and will absorb screwy lattices when we put them back together wrong - both at our benefit and at our expense.

it follows, then, that we ought to be able to absorb a prebuilt molecule of actual hydroxyapatite, if we can find it - we can absorb it with fluoride (an improvement), and we can absorb it with carbonate (a worsening), so we should be able to absorb it the right way, too. right?

and, why don't we just fucking do it, then?

because the only natural source is animal bones, and we don't eat those anymore, or pick our teeth with them anymore, at least. some of us eat soup, perhaps. but, the molecule isn't soluble - you need to smash them up. you can't eat it either, exactly - it's topical. but, if you chomp on them long enough, you could release it.

your dog loves chewing on bones. 

maybe it's on to something...

so, i have actually purchased some 90 nm fluorite (it's a rock form of calcium + fluoride, ground into tiny bits, good stuff for your teeth), and i'm looking to get either hydroxyapatite in the form of ground cow bones or just get dicalcium phosphate instead.

this is what i need to figure out - when your teeth absorbs these minerals, does it absorb them in ionic form and put them together as hydroxyapatite, or does it absorb the hydroxyapatite in full? and, is the reason we have such a hard time rebuilding teeth actually just that we stopped eating bones?

no, hear me out, here. it's about activation energy. this is turning into a high school chemistry lecture - and i know all you arts majors didn't bother, did you?

when you split molecules apart, you need to generate energy to do it. when you put molecules together, energy is released. so, if your body splits the molecules apart and puts them back together again, that requires energy you don't want to waste - and you want to give them to your teeth in ion form so it doesn't have to break them apart. conversely, if your body wants it in complete form, you don't want to give it the pieces, because it's going to require energy to put it together, even if the end reaction generates it.

as it is, the idea i'm getting is that your enamel is dead. there's no biological activity at work - this is just pure chemistry. which is why i don't understand why it stops working when the enamel runs through. it shouldn't matter, if it's just an attended process.

but, that means it's important to get it right.

your saliva can produce calcium & phosphate ions on it's own, so it's maybe not clear what i'm adding by introducing calcium phosphate, if it's not working in the first place. i'm neither calcium nor phosphorus deficient. is it spitting on a fish?

but, if you give it the completed molecule, will it uptake it whole?

i'd like to see some verifying source before i make a choice.

here, kitty kitty kitty.

what?

...or maybe just check it in a reaction with baking soda, if i can't get any stray cats to sit still while i dump a solution on them.

yes, i'll test it on a stray cat or something before i put it in my mouth.

this doesn't appear to be sold in canada:

but, i can surely order something from detroit.

for now.

until i hear back from the engineering firm.

and, you can get finely crushed fluorite from art stores, it seems. it's used as a decorative material.

what might be even better is if i took the hydroxyapatite & fluorite and mixed it up in a blender with just a tad of water, so it's a paste - and then put it directly on, like a topical. almost like a cement.

the first thing i'm going to want to do is to test to see if the powdered fluorite burns through my table or not.

see, the calcium should balance it. how much?

Carter (1928) determined the solubility of laboratory precipitated calcium fluoride in distilled water at 25C at a pH of 6.4. He reported a calcium fluoride solubility of 0.004 grams (g) per 100 cubic centimeters (cc) of solution, or 40 mg CaF2/L.

so, it's not dangerous.

and it will probably work.

great.

raw fluorite powder is affordable, it seems.

so, what happens if i take powdered hydroxyapatite and powdered fluorite and mix it together and use it as mouth wash? don't eat this. 

i didn't tell you to fucking eat this.

but, will it stick to my teeth?

see, this is more or less what i'm trying to hack out with the hydroxyapatite & high fluoride toothpaste. and, it's close to what my teeth actually look like, too.

he's using silicon dioxide + hydrofluoric acid. that is extremely dangerous, but i get the point - these ten percent fluoride toothpastes are probably not good enough. so, while the novamin + prevident is perhaps the right idea in principle, it's too weak to actually work.

can i buy crystallized fluorite somewhere and suck on it like a lozenge, with hydroxyapatite?

yeah.

no more red hot. no more mustard. i'll get some spices, instead, in a few days.

i want to focus more on strengthening and disinfecting but that doesn't mean i should be reckless. 

i should add a ph entry to the chart and try to deal with anything much less than 5.

however, if i replaced the frank's with cayenne pepper (that is, remove the vinegar.....and the salt), i could flip something that's acidic (ph ~ 3-4) to something that's basic (ph ~ 8.5)..

likewise, mustard powder has a ph over 6, whereas bought mustard is quite acidic.

fuck, i wish i sat down with this and worked it all out sooner.

i'm going through the inositol double check (yes, i'm still doing this), and one thing i'm thinking i should step back from is the limes. i have more options for the pasta bowl than i did for the fruit bowl.

but, i wonder.

see, i'm not drinking straight lime juice, which i agree is a bad idea. 

- i'm eating the lime whole, including the pith,

- i'm putting it in a mixture that includes soy milk & yogurt, amongst other things

i doubt it's really that bad. but, is it necessary? that's something to contemplate. i don't have to decide right now.

potential replacements:

- green beans

- artichokes

- tomato <----lycopene

- bread

- bran

- peas <----coumarin

i'm also mixing my grapefruit juice with apple juice, which is a modest improvement, and could conceivably put a teaspoon of calcium carbonate in it to try to balance it out a bit better.

william the conqueror enjoyed his male conquests at least as much as his feudal ones.

the church histories don't like to tell you about that, though.
