Decay preventative

#1 Post by Huon »

I have read that GTF milk powder is used to prevent the action of the bacterium that causes tooth decay. Can anyone tell me where to go to get it? The reason that I want to find it is not so much for that purpose as that I have read that it helps with Myasthenia gravis, which is a condition that i have.
I am in Australia but knowing where people find it in any country would be likely to be a help.

Give a look at this web-site:

http://www.gtf.com.my/eng/html/main.htm

It appears that this corporation is based in Southeast Asia and, while I couldn't find a link to ordering the GTF milk powder, there are several contact phone numbers and an e-mail address for asking questions.

Good luck.

Thanks, Lucyloop. That seems to be a different product, although with the same initials.
Ga_N8V I'll certainly follow up that URL and see where it leads me.
The situation is now more complicated, as the results of a blood test have just come through and it seems that I am not carrying the Myasthenia gravis antibodies and so, the treatment that was being considered is not relevant.
Back to the drawing board!
