Peaters - My digestion is definitely improving (somewhat): less bloating, more regularity, "death" breath odor less often, less pelvic pain. The improvement seems to come from fewer FODMAPS, lots of betaine HCl, digestive enzymes, minocycline, and cascara.
But my dental plaque is increasingly worse lately (and was almost nonexistent in the recent past). I'm wondering what's going on? I thought better GI system, less plaque. The plaque is getting so bad, I think it's a sign of something going wrong that I should not ignore. Is my regimen (oral care, diet, supps) favoring some bad dental bacteria? My oral care includes brushing with Crest, rinsing with xylitol, and occasional listerine.
Any thoughts?
