Very interesting about cleaning teeth between meals.. I found that doing this you achieve not wanting to eat between meals. It is the 1st time that I have heard of this and it works. Also I think that it is necessary to have two full glasses of water before each meal, and this helps with weight loss. I used this method and was able to lose 26kgs over a 6 month period.
