“My personal gut issues have been hugely improved by the GAPS diet, particularly the bone broth component.”
Dentoxol mouthwashes, Plantago major extract, thyme honey extract, zinc oxide paste, vitamin B complex combined with GeneTime, and the consumption of L-glutamine are effective in diminishing the severity of OM. Pain intensity was lower with doxepin mouthwashes and diphenhydramine-lidocaine-antacid mouthwashes.
Acta Odontol Latinoam, 2023 ↗“I tried out L-glutamine. It worked! I saw some real results taking 15g a day.”
