Hidden Epidemic: Silent Oral Infections Cause Most Heart Attacks and Breast Cancers

Excellent read and vital to good health for anyone with root canals or problem teeth. I kept my root canal for 11 years before reading this book, getting the 3D cone Xray, and consulting a Naturalpathic Dentist. I had several 2 D Xrays which showed no issues of infection whatsoever. The 3D revealed a much different picture however with infection down to the roots and a post in my jaw. A month later the tooth was removed. Let me warn you, DO NOT let a regular dentist remove this! Its no easy task and is highly toxic. They have no clue because they dont believe there is anything wrong with a root canal. You need to find a Natural Dentist. Not only was the root infected, the jaw bone in front and back was massively infected and there was even an abscess that didnt show up in Xrays. I will challenge any conventional dentist who insists that this is not a health hazard. It will most likely be a few months before I realize better health from this, but I had about 25 serum levels tested to prove it was impacting my health. If you have a root canal, get this book, it could save your life.

I got this book as a gift for someone so they could better take care of their teeth. They told me they were not going to read it to return it. I thought why did I get this should I return it? I picked it up and haven’t been about to put it down. It’s truly a great book with a great source of information. I highly recommend you get this to anyone considering it. It’ll be the second book I finish in several years!

Five years ago I had constant heart pain. I had a nuclear stress test, an echo, wore the holter etc.... Was diagnosed with angina and pericarditis. At the same time, I had so many other symptoms I started seeing natural health practitioners. One particularly turned me onto this book as a possible explanation when my health evaluation mentioned I had three root canals - in molars all on my left side. I read the book and just.did.not.want.to remove those root canals. I had to practically be on my death bed (and I was) to go "OK, I'll do anything to feel better. I'll spend the $$ and go thru the pain...." Glad I did. It was the biggest single improvement in health that I've ever experienced. Getting that constant bacterial load (from leaky infected root canals) out of my head....made a leap of healing possible. Literally, I went from a zombie to "normal" within 3-6 months. I just kept improving and improving. I think the body can handle a lot. My threshold for disease had obviously been far exceeded and my immune system could not catch up. I had "chronic lyme"....tested by PCR, but also Western Blot and Antibody testing. I no longer have any signs or symptoms of this horribly debilitating disease.

This is a very important book...if you have older root canals they could be putting your life in danger...I had very high chronic levels of inflammation. In my search to find the cause I learned Dental issue were very high on the list of cause...if you have inflammation concerns read this book...if you are not concerned about your inflammation read this book...I had a lot of old dental work...it has all been replaced my inflammation levels have dropped dramatically...now I’m working to knock out the rest of it by eating the right foods...easier said than done. I’m highly motivated by my recent improvements...

I believe the message of this book was very timely for me and just well may have saved my health. I followed Dr. Levy's recommendations right away after reading this book in December 2017 and got 3 root canals extracted (all three bottom molars), using a biodentist in Tiajana (American Biodental) that was very thorough and careful with extractions. Two of my teeth were infected with cavitations. One of them had been giving me a lot of trouble which is why I read his book in the first place as I wanted to try to find out the truth between the two sides of the story. Levy offers a plethora of research evidence and it was completely convincing. I decided against dental implants because they still have a fairly high failure rate and they still put unnatural metal in the mouth and disrupt energy meridians. Anyhow, this book is easy to understand, thorough, and very convincing. Don't let your root canals or amalgam fillings ruin your health!

Read this book, save a life. "Hidden Epidemic" helps explain how I could live an exemplary health and wellness lifestyle, (and not have a bad family history of heart disease) and somehow still get life-threatening arteriosclerosis at age 55. It makes a little more sense when you have 4 little "cesspools" in your jawbone trickling inflammation out to the rest of your body for 25 years. My standard panoramic X-ray looked good to the untrained eye, and I had no dental symptoms, but cavitation surgery with a holistic dentist uncovered 4 good-sized cavitations, with infection - one for each wisdom tooth pulled 25 years ago. I can't know if this was 20% of my problem or 80% of my problem - but regardless I am overjoyed that I am now healing these long running cavitations. Thank you Dr. Levy! If you have ever had a root canal or a tooth extraction, (or will need one in the future) - read this book. If you have heart disease - read this book

Dr Levy is a pioneer, pushing many paradigm shifts in medicine. Unfortunately big pharma has other plans. It is up to us to educate ourselves under the guidance of courageous doctors like Dr Levy and start changing the broken, corrupt healthcare system in America from the bottom up

If you are concerned, in the least, about getting Heart Disease or Breast Cancer... Read this book! It's crazy that this info. hasn't gone viral! Truly life-saving! This book should be in every Dental office and every Medical office! Author is very easy to understand.

The book is very informative and well done. I encourage anyone that has a root canal to read it. I personally found out that I had an infected root canal tooth by getting a cone beam xray. I was surprised to see the infection on the root as the tooth had not bothered me. (The ONLY thing disappointing about the book was that every 4th page or so on the left side page, the print had fading from the top of the page to the bottom. You could still read it but it wasn't as clear.)

This is the kind of book you wish you'd read much earlier. You're fortunate if your doctor knows that a major cause of heart disease is asymptomatic gum disease. If you get heart disease your doctor is unlikely to treat the gum disease that caused it... or even diagnose it. Thus the problem will continue while surgeons replace coronary arteries until you run out of suitable veins. Unfortunately, the book barely addresses the next step after diagnosis i.e. Treatment of gum disease. The book should have mentioned water flossing as it's a simple way to improve oral health. A discussion on toothbrushes would have been helpful e.g. manual, electronic: rotating, ultrasonic (kHz v's MHz) Comparing toothpastes e.g. Remineralising and reducing sensitivity What kind of mouthwash is ideal? Sure the book mentions antibiotics and water pulling... but this doesn't always work. Treatment of gum disease really ought to be broken out into its own chapter. The book suggests a cone beam 3D scan of the jaw is ideal for identifying asymptomatic infections of the gums. However, the book fails to mention cytokine testing as another way to identify that a problem exists and importantly when the infection has resolved. Calcium scoring also ought to be mentioned... as it provides a definitive meaure of the success/failure of interventions. I wish the references had followed a simple superscript numbering (1,2,3, etc...) style instead they break down references chapter by chapter... which is unnecessarily wordy i.e. References are repeated Despite its weaknesses, this is a great book and my doctor enjoyed it too. :-)
