It stands for Gallium. It is used in the semiconductor industry.
However, for our bodies -- Gallium is not known to be essential in biology, but because of the biological handling of gallium's primary ionic salt Ga(III) as though it were iron(III), gallium ion localizes to and interacts with many processes in the body in which iron(III) is manipulated. As these processes include inflammation, which is present as a marker for many disease states, several gallium salts are used, or are in development, as both pharmaceuticals and radiopharmaceuticals in medicine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GalliumPosts: 212 | From Arizona | Registered: Jul 2008

so- will post this for you here in case you come back on ur hubby-- has parathyroid been checked ,esp recently??? the stones, osteo, even build up sent up my nurse radar... ....sounds like could be part of what is going on anyway
biofilms --- i am trying to learn about this in lymeworld...this is not new info to wound care specialists. wounds that are chronic are do to bio-films and new products have been found effective to break them up
however- wiht wound care you are talking topical use/treatment not internal. even this is newer discovery/use in health care and chorinc wound care has been an issue for YEARS. that said, i cant imagine how long would take for things to be figured out (talking with science to back it here, dont shoot me ) for lyme and family
interesting thoughts.
-------------------- i am not a Dr. any info is only for education, suggestion or to think/research. please do not mis-intuprest as diagnostic or prescriptive, only trying to help. **

Is there anything that dentists are using that eliminate plaque really well? I know plaque is biofilm and any/all dentists will tell you that...
One dentists I know like the gum with xylitol in it, maybe xylitol would help? I have heard it is a sweetener.

The best way to care of plaque is a two pronged approach. Doing the oil pool technique (do a search for it there is much written about it). Triphala does an excellent job IMO of getting rid of biofilm / plaque in the mouth (again do a search for it). You may want to see a dentist who has expertise in cleaning cavitations and root canals. If you can find a dentist who uses ozone it will get rid of the biofilm as well as correcting issues in the cavitations.
Cavitations are holes in the teath usually from wisdom teeth that were removed.
