Vinegar is very unhealthy, we don’t use it. Substitute lemon juice in dressings. If you do a search for Hippocrates Institute dressing, we posted the recipe of the basic dressing on a recipe site. It’s my favorite, it’s also contains a lot of virgin olive oil – so also high in fat.

You are correct – addressing your lifestyle should also help to address your teeth.

In addition, I learned to be more thorough in cleaning my mouth by using an inexpensive water pic and a tongue scraper.

I’ve been a raw food vegan for 3 years now, and although I have experienced benifits from this diet, I have also had some growing health issues mainly concerning my teeth. I understand that our bodies are interconnected, so where I see problems with my teeth, I know that this is an indication of an underlying wholistic imbalance within my body.

I am not sure what the main causes for this are, but when I do a critical analysis of what I eat, my diet is actually quite far removed from the Hippocrates one which is a tried and true proven winner. My plan is to addopt this new diet as near as I can manage, and then sort out what I “should or shouldn’t” be eating when I am truely healthy.

Could you tell me what the Hippocrates stance is on fats ? I eat avodacos, and am generally lost for salad dressings without it because I don’t eat any other fats, nuts or vinegars etc. If you could share what you use for dressings as well that would be great. Thank you so much for your time and energy

Congratulations on your actions to take charge of your health. And thanks for your comment. Let me know how things go with the juicing, and perhaps sometime you will be able to go to Hippocrates Health Institute.

Thanks for the heads up. It is now working. Enjoy, and do leave a comment after listening to it.
