There are parotid glands in the cheeks which trigger parotid hormone that is responsible for the fluid flow thru teeth.
Sugar triggers parotid hormone to cause fluid flow to from the mouth, into the enamel, into the dentin and into the pulp chamber and that is not the direction we want.
When our phosphorus levels are between 3.5-4.0, the fluid flow goes in the right direction, from pulp chamber, into the dentin, thru the enamal and into the mouth.
Since fat is broken down in the gut and not the mouth, it sounds like it would be better to swallow it because the body already knows it is in the mouth.
I should do it because I still have a root canal tooth that I am getting out at the end of april.
