We are what we eat, we already know. And if it is obvious that some drinks or foods affect the health and beauty of their teeth, causing spots and removing them shine (did anyone talk about coffee and red wine?), What about foods that have the opposite effect, that is, beneficial? That is, how can we use food to our advantage to get that healthy and splendid smile we dream and deserve?

It's simpler than it seems: you need to look inside. Get down at the cellular level, where it all starts and where everything is processed. What we eat affects us inside, and this, of course, is noted on the outside. In the mouth too!

Everything starts in the mouth

It is through the mouth that the incredible trip of food (and nutrients) begins through our body, spreading health and beauty for each fabric. As with any other part of the body, a healthy and beautiful mouth is closely linked to a balanced diet. And it's really amazing how everything is connected: digestion starts in the mouth and saliva plays a very important role throughout the process. The food we chew and swallows contains enzymes that stimulate acid production for digestion and this, in turn, has influence on teeth and brightness.

Want to know which foods can't miss your diet to get white and healthy teeth? Point and make your personal mix.

Strawberry

Fresh or frozen, strawberries are rich in malic acid. This natural acid is similar to ascorbic acid and acts as a natural astringent that improves discoloration. In general terms, malic acid is recognized for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and also used as an acidity regulator.

Ananas

Delicious and summary, pineapple contains a powerful enzyme, bromelain, which wonders for their general health. In addition to helping protein digestion, bromelain has an important anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory effect. In concrete in the mouth, this enzyme will help disintegrate the sediments that accumulate in the tooth enamel, cleaning its surface.

Walnuts and seeds

Due to its structure and abrasive texture, functioning almost like a “sandpaper”, the various types of nuts and seeds are fantastic to combat the dental plate. In addition, they are naturally rich in calcium, which contributes to strong teeth.

Broccolics

These versatile vegetables are full of surprises. Rich in calcium, which strengthens teeth and iron, a mineral that helps fight bacteria that cause teeth discoloration. Try eating raw broccles and see how your branches help clean the spaces between your teeth, coming everywhere.

Celery

The celery is amazing for a liver detox, and a superhero in cleaning your mouth. Crunchy but also refreshing, when chewed the celery produces a lot of saliva and this will clean their teeth, giving them a brighter look.

The power of the toothpaste

Taken in isolation or in powerful combinations, these foods will strengthen your body and at the same time help you get white, stronger and healthier teeth. But nature, always generous, created other wonderful ingredients that we joined in the Toothpaste cardamom, a natural ally for white and polished teeth, healthy gums and fresh breath. We talk about the classic sodium bicarbonate, the natural whitening par excellence, but also of white clay, which reminders the teeth and salt, which maintains the pH of the healthy mouth, avoiding the accumulation of waste that sweet formulas provide. The essential oils and the mint, which we also added to this unbeatable formula for oral care, in addition to making the breath fresh, helps prevent bacterial problems and oral microbioma deregulation.
