What is your company? And have you identified anything you could recommend to help “cultivate our healthy species”?

  My company is Bristle (bristlehealth.com), and we've found several things that look to cultivate healthy species so far. Hygiene plays a huge role (of course), but outside of that diet plays a large role. Cheese/dairy has been found to reduce cavity incidence, high fiber vegetables stimulate saliva production and neutralize acid, and a nitrate rich diet has been shown to increase levels of beneficial bacteria (called nitrate reducing species) that help us produce nitric oxide [2]. There's some exciting research on probiotics [3] as potential interventions as well, particularly if used with a proper hygiene regimen.
