Our Science | MyFitStrip — Clinically-Validated Oral Wellness

Recent Clinical Results

✓ BACTERIAL BALANCE

Nitrate-reducing bacteria increased, inflammation-linked bacteria decreased

The helpful nitrate-reducing species (Rothia, Neisseria) became more abundant, while genera associated with gum inflammation (Prevotella, Porphyromonas) declined.

✓ HEALTHIER GUMS

Bleeding on probing fell from 25.7% to 15.3%

Bleeding when gums are probed is a standard measure of gum irritation. Over 21 days, the results showed about a 40% improvement in the nitrate group compared with placebo (p = 0.0002).

✓ MORE NITRIC OXIDE ACTIVITY

Salivary nitrite rose and oral pH increased

Nitrite is what oral bacteria make on the way to producing nitric oxide, so more of it means the pathway is working. A higher pH means a less acidic mouth.

Supports a healthier oral microbiome: Prebiotic nitrate exposure shifted the oral microbiome toward increased levels of beneficial nitrate-reducing bacteria.

Helps support nitric oxide production: Nitrate-reducing oral bacteria play an important role in converting dietary nitrate into nitrite, a key step in the body’s natural nitric oxide pathway.

Promotes a balanced oral environment: The study observed reductions in certain bacteria associated with oral inflammation after exposure to a nitrate-based formulation.
