Prevent Tooth Decay in Toddlers With This Simple Milk Formula Adjustment
Notice that there are many children around 2 to 5 who have horrible, horrible teeth. Aside from all the candy and the flour they eat, the worst culprit is their milk formula. You read it right, it is their milk formula. Let me explain.
Milk formula is not mother’s milk. If you are a mother, you are used to breast feeding the baby until he falls asleep. This is fine because mother’s breast milk is good, alkaline, nutritious and will never cause tooth decay. The problem of tooth decay starts when you wean your child off of precious breast milk and into inferior milk substitute formula. You continue the habit of feeding with milk formula until the child is asleep. This is the recipe for tooth decay. The remaining inferior milk substitute formula remains in the child’s mouth, but unlike health mother’s breast milk, this milk substitute formula is acidic and eats away at a toddler’s delicate teeth!
What to do? Adjust your bottle feeding time. Feed a bit earlier. Always make room to brush your toddler’s teeth before he / she goes to sleep. Gargle and rinse out all the inferior milk substitute formula from your toddler’s mouth. Avoid toothpaste with fluoride. Fluoride is poison. Go to your health food store and buy toothpaste with zero fluoride.
You may also look into more superior milk substitutes such as raw goat’s milk. But nothing will ever beat specific mother’s milk as it has been formulated specifically for your child.
So there you have it, it is as simple as brushing your toddler’s teeth before he goes to bed. Because now, he / she’s on inferior milk formula. Ah, the hazards of modern society, mothers are unable to breast feed their young enough.
