Xylitol kills the bacteria that causes cavities: – Streptococcus mutans eats xylitol instead of sugar, but can't produce acid when it does – No acid = no demineralization = no cavities – Xylitol also stops S. mutans from colonizing and forming biofilm on teeth – Reduces gum and soft tissue inflammation – Use xylitol gum or mints immediately after meals – Start with 1-2 mints per meal @hubermanlab
