3,3′-Diindolylmethane (DIM) decreased the Streptococcus mutans biofilm, a leading contributor to plaque and cavities, by 90%.
A significant portion of the global population experiences persistent issues with dental plaque and cavities or will face them at some time. While toothpaste, mouthwash, and routine dental visits help in prevention, there’s always room for improvement.
Researchers from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, in collaboration with teams from Sichuan University and the National University of Singapore, have identified that 3,3′-Diindolylmethane (DIM) – a naturally occurring molecule also referred to as bisindole – can reduce biofilms responsible for plaque and cavities by a remarkable 90%.
The molecule is also found to have anti-carcinogenic properties.
Their findings were recently published in the journal Antibiotics.
Americans reading anything: “How do I find a way to shove our idiotic polarized, tribal politics into this?”.
Seriously. It’s an article about dental health…
Our conservatives are the number one threat to humanity world-wide. You should care about this because it will eventually affect you directly.
I repeat. It’s an article about dental health. You can pretend your comment was anything other than you circlejerking the same tired bullshit without saying a single fucking thing, just to stroke your ego and feel like you’re any better than the people you make fun of all you want. It doesn’t change a thing. You repeating some hyperlative bullshit doesn’t either. It just reveals who you are.
Very well aware of the threat of American idiots, mainly due to the fact that because people exactly like you on the other side of the spectrum keep shoving the same bullshit down everyone’s throats everywhere they go, it spreads and now, thanks to exactly the same behavior you’re so proud of here, we have idiots all over the world repeating the same idiocy down to a tee.
Just because people don’t want your dick shoved down their throats 24/7 everywhere they go doesn’t mean they don’t care.
“Conservatives are like: “Herppp derppp I’m a conservative there’s microchips in ma teef!” Hahaha! Right guys?!” isn’t exactly the kind of eloquent and well thought argument you think it is. Behaviour like that contributes to the problem, it doesn’t solve anything. You’re a part of the problem. Be better.
They’re fucking everywhere. They’re coming out of the fucking wall!!
They don’t admit it but they love their culture wars and shit politics.
