Re: brushing with no toothpaste; healthy teeth covered with green slime

Here's the info from WAP:

" The diets of the healthy " primitives " Price studied were all very

different: In the Swiss village where Price began his investigations,

the inhabitants lived on rich dairy products--unpasteurized milk,

butter, cream and cheese--dense rye bread, meat occasionally, bone

broth soups and the few vegetables they could cultivate during the

short summer months. The children never brushed their teeth--in fact

>>>> NOTE: their teeth were covered in green slime--but Price found

that only about one percent of the teeth had any decay at all. The

children went barefoot in frigid streams during weather that forced

Dr. Price and his wife to wear heavy wool coats; nevertheless

childhood illnesses were virtually nonexistent and there had never

been a single case of TB in the village. Hearty Gallic fishermen

living off the coast of Scotland consumed no dairy products. Fish

formed the mainstay of the diet, along with oats made into porridge

and oatcakes. Fishheads stuffed with oats and chopped fish liver was

a traditional dish, and one considered very important for children.

The Eskimo diet, composed largely of fish, fish roe and marine

animals, including seal oil and blubber, allowed Eskimo mothers to

produce one sturdy baby after another without suffering any health

problems or tooth decay. Well-muscled hunter-gatherers in Canada, the

Everglades, the Amazon, Australia and Africa consumed game animals,

particularly the parts that civilized folk tend to avoid--organ

meats, glands, blood, marrow and particularly the adrenal glands--and

a variety of grains, tubers, vegetables and fruits that were

available. African cattle-keeping tribes like the Masai consumed no

plant foods at all--just meat, blood and milk. Southsea islanders and

the Maori of New Zealand ate seafood of every sort--fish, shark,

octopus, shellfish, sea worms--along with pork meat and fat, and a

variety of plant foods including coconut, manioc and fruit. Whenever

these isolated peoples could obtain sea foods they did so--even

Indian tribes living high in the Andes. These groups put a high value

on fish roe which was available in dried form in the most remote

Andean villages. Insects were another common food, in all regions

except the Arctic. The foods that allow people of every race and

every climate to be healthy are whole natural foods--meat with its

fat, organ meats, whole milk products, fish, insects, whole grains,

tubers, vegetables and fruit--not newfangled concoctions made with

white sugar, refined flour and rancid and chemically altered

vegetable oils. "
