I say 30s but to be real, the earlier in adulthood you start taking these supplements, the better. Keep in mind that a varied and balanced diet consisting primarily of whole foods is usually good enough to give you the vitamins, minerals etc. that you need. For those of us who find it harder to be perfect in our consumption habits however, and those who have chosen to follow exclusive diets, supplements are a good way to ensure you're not missing out on your micros.

These are the things that I use either when in a flare or just to make daily life easier. Some days I don’t need to use any mobility aids and others days I am 100% dependent.

Welcome to my curated dental collection! Here, I handpick my absolute favorite finds, holy-grail essentials, and daily recommendations to save you time. After much research, in-home testing, and years of dental visits, my family has switched to fluoride-free dental care. Instead, we look for tooth pastes with nano-hydroxyapatite, the naturally-occurring mineral that makes up the majority of your tooth enamel (97% of tooth enamel and 70% of dentin). Brushing your teeth with this mineral, fills in the tiny enamel holes in your teeth, which strengthens, whitens, remineralizes, and desensitizes. The type of hydroxyapatite matters! I look for 10%, nano-sized, and ROD-SHAPED. The rod shape matches native enamel crystal orientation (enamel mimicry). This ensures the most therapeutic outcome. I also like tooth pastes that include xylitol as a natural sweetener (a natural sugar alcohol) , which starves mouth bacteria, lowers mouth acidity, and stimulates saliva production to protect enamel. (keep xylitol-containing products away from animals as their bodies do not digest this compound-completely safe for humans) This list contains products from transparent companies with ingredients that are clean, floride-free, and 10% rod-shaped nano-hydroxyapatite and of course all are safe to swallow and do not need rinsing (keeps the product on longer). I have also included some of my favorite oral care items to help you feel extra confident at your next dental visit! Get ready to impress your dentist! *Disclosure: This list contains affiliate links.
