THE TRUTH:
The nation came together in an all out effort to fight World
War II. The country's leading manufacturers help lead the
fight. After the war, the chemical manufacturers needed
a new enemy. The target became bacteria. The ADA joined
the new battle by declaring war on tooth decay bacteria.
The ADA hired the prestigious Harvard University to research
the relationship of bacteria to tooth decay. Ten years later,
the results were found to be that white refined sugar was
the primary cause of tooth decay. Instead of letting the
general public know the true results, the ADA and dental
manufacturers blamed the dental disease on sugar bugs. Sugar
bugs feed on white refined sugar to cause tooth decay. Get
rid of the sugar bugs and tooth decay will be eliminated.
The war on tooth decay turned into the fluoride toothpaste
campaign. Two cities in Illinois were used as test sites
where one city used fluoride toothpaste and the other did
not. The test results were not that conclusive, but the
dental industry used the results to launch the barrage of
antibacterial oral hygiene products upon the public. TV
was the new invention that helped advertise the antibacterial
campaign.
The
chemical industry war that includes the dental war against
bacteria have resulted in numerous casualties on both
sides. No longer are there the vast numbers of certain
disease pathogens as there were before the war. Many of
the old diseases have been wiped off the face of this
country. Unfortunately, the war has brought new diseases
and new enemies. The old bacteria that survived, have
now mutated into bacteria that resist many of the antibacterial
agents. Using the old agents allow the new resistant bacteria
to take over the environment. The real casualty of the
war is the destruction of the true fighters of pathogens.
They are the good bacteria. The chemical industry has
tilted the ecological scale to favor resistant pathogenic
bacteria. Mother nature has used good bacteria to control
the bad bacteria by competing against each other for food.
As long as the battle between bacteria takes place, the
bad bacteria are not able to cause disease.
THE
TIMES ARE A CHANGING:
Resistant bacteria warnings are in the forefront of the
news. A major TV network warns people who go to hospitals
to wash their hands thoroughly to prevent infectious disease.
The reason is that overuse of antibacterial agents in
the hospital surroundings have bred resistant bacteria
that have taken over the environment. The recent terrorist
threat of Anthrax have the medical industry worried of
overuse of Cipro, the last line of defense of resistant
strains of the bacteria. A recent doctor's convention
was held where the topic was overprescribing antibiotics.
Estimates of between 20-50% of all prescription antibiotics
may not have been needed. The Center for Disease Control
claims that 50 million prescriptions of antibiotics out
of the 150 million prescribed by doctors are unnecessary.
Instead of taking the responsibility for their actions,
the doctors cast the blame for resistant bacteria on other
antibacterial agents. There is plenty of blame to pass
around. The chemical industry introduces thousands of
new chemical formulas each year in products to fight bacteria.
A recent PBS documentary highlighted the fact that these
chemicals can not be metabolized by the human body. When
the human body is exposed to these chemicals, traces remain
to act as poisons and free radicals. This results in weakening
of the immune system and making the body vulnerable to
infectious diseases. The chemicals initially kill bacteria,
but the bacteria have mutated to become resistant to the
chemicals. Humans are not able to mutate their genes like
bacteria.
The
medical profession is depending on the chemical industry
to bail them out of their abuse of medicines. The problem
is that bacteria have survived for eons of years by mutating
when they encounter danger to their very existence. The
time has come to change strategy before it is too late
and we will poison ourselves off this planet. Instead
of killing all bacteria, the time has come to target the
bad bacteria. In fact, Biotechnology is doing just that.
Unfortunately, they are having a hard time because of
the billions of genes, most of them do nothing but take
up space. It is like finding a needle in a large hay stack.
The only way to find the right genes means testing each
gene and that may prove to be a futile task. Perhaps the
only way to fight resistant bacteria is to accept that
in our chemical polluted society, there will be resistant
pathogens. The way to keep the pathogens from causing
disease is to use good bacteria to fight the new bad bacteria.
When there is an emergency situation, like the possible
Anthrax epidemic, use modern medicine to thwart the spread
of the disease. The solution is what can be called integrative
medicine. Be realistic and know that as long as there
is chemical warfare against bacteria, there will be resistant
bacteria. Replace use of everyday chemicals with safer
non toxic products. Then when there is an emergency situation,
use the modern day chemicals to survive the emergency.
NEW
WAY OF LOOKING AT GERMS:
Stuart Levy, president elect of the American Society of
Microbiology may have the solution. He postulates that
resistant bacteria are found everyplace where there is
exposure to antibacterial agents. To combat the resistant
bacteria, allow susceptible bacteria that were a normal
part of the flora to reenter and compete with the resistant
bacteria. Levy states that resistant bacteria expend more
energy into developing mechanisms to fight antibacterial
agents. This gives the susceptible bacteria the edge in
competition with the resistant bacteria. Eventually, the
resistant bacteria will be eliminated or reduced to such
a level as where they can not cause damage. Levy warns
that the overuse of antibacterial agents may even cause
diseases such as asthma and allergy. The old theory of
disease was that if you sanitize and clean your body,
the body will not get disease. This theory must be changed
to be in tune with the new world by replacing sanitize
to prudent use of sanitation products. We must be aware
that what worked in the past, may not work at all in the
present. We may be children of our parents, but the pathogens
among us are new and were not around in generations past.
INTEGRATIVE
DENTAL PRODUCTS:
This new age of resistant bacteria needs a new remedy
to maintain good dental health. We must assume that the
mouth is full of resistant bacteria because we overuse
antibacterial agents in the mouth. We must use the expertise
of Levy by fighting resistant bacteria with susceptible
bacteria. We must take into account what is currently
accepted by the dental profession that is that dental
disease is caused by both new and old bacteria. The integrative
solution is to brush your teeth with a non toxic antibacterial
product. Then rinse the bacteria and odor away with a
product that fights both resistant bacteria and susceptible
pathogenic bacteria. Compete50 may be the best combination
of toothpaste and mouthwash because of its integrative
power. What is Compete50?
The
new products are an antioxidant antibacterial non toxic
toothpowder and a new probiotic apple flavored mouthwash.
ANTIOXIDANT
TOOTHPOWDER: Compete50 toothpowder is revolutionary
in that it is an antibacterial agent that does not release
toxic gases. The new process uses Nuclear magnetic resonance
energy to clean and kill the bacteria. To learn more about

PROBIOTIC
MOUTHWASH: Probiotics have been used as treatment
for digestive problems for over 60 years. The concept
is not new. The basic principle of probiotics is to use
good bacteria to compete against pathogenic bacteria.
Yet, this therapeutic is swallowed and bypasses having
any beneficial effect in the oral cavity. Compete50 is
a special probiotic that competes against oral pathogens.

Compete50
is truly a revolutionary way to clean and freshen your
mouth. Compete50 is safe, efficient, economical and completely
non toxic.
