It was an interesting show as it had a few other items to consider. I watched the show and this is not the first time I have heard about teeth care and gum disease causing health issues...such as heart attacks due to bacteria...while this was the first time I heard about 75% status in bc. The show was not selling a product - they were deomonstating a small pill that you chew after brushing ( my dentist has them) so I already knew of them..anyway this pill after chewing will display by color if you have flossed and brushed correctly.

I do think we have to consider that there are many paths to cancer and so many different reactions in our bodies that can halt or not halt the disease.
So much is still unknown.
