An ihrem fünfzehnten Geburtstag bekommt Sadie eine Glückwunschkarte von ihrem Vater. Das Seltsame daran: Sadie hat gar keinen Vater. Jedenfalls nicht im klassischen Sinne. Sadie wurde mithilfe einer Samenspende gezeugt. Der Mann, dem sie die Hälfte ihres Erbguts verdankt, kann eigentlich nicht wissen, dass es sie gibt, und erst recht nicht, wie sie heißt oder wo sie wohnt. Plötzlich erwacht in Sadie der Wunsch, ihren biologischen Vater zu finden. Aber das ist gar nicht so leicht ...

Breakthrough Strategies to Stop Cavities and Heal Gum Disease Naturally
Enjoy the Mouth Health You Deserve! Dr. Ellie challenges the traditional dental advice of “brush and floss,” arguing that it is both dangerous and ineffective given our understanding of cavities and gum disease as bacterial infections. Achieving oral health requires establishing a balanced bacterial environment in the mouth, which cannot be accomplished through excessive cleaning or indiscriminate killing of bacteria. The development of our mouth ecology begins early in life through bacterial transfer between parents and children, continuing throughout life via interactions with family and friends. Harmful mouth bacteria can affect overall health and are linked to chronic inflammatory conditions. A healthy mouth not only enhances your smile but also protects against cavities, gum disease, bad breath, sensitivity, and enamel erosion, ultimately reducing the need for dental treatments like cleanings, fillings, and extractions. In this transformative guide, Dr. Ellie presents easy-to-follow strategies that empower you to take control of your oral health. Learn how to stop and reverse cavities and gum disease, improve saliva quality through diet, manage dry mouth and gum recession, and understand the risks of flossing and artificial whitening. These simple yet effective strategies can lead to a remarkable improvement in your mouth health.
