In episode 11 of the podcast, I delve into the often overlooked topic of oral health and its significant impact on overall well-being. The episode begins with a brief explanation of why oral health is discussed early on in the series, emphasizing its crucial role in foundational health principles.
I highlight the harmful effects of carbohydrates on oral health, as they convert into sugar, leading to cavities, caries, and imbalances in the oral microbiome. The concept of "Collar Up Focal Infections" is introduced, highlighting the connection between dental infections and systemic health issues, a notion known since the 20s.
Various direct and indirect signs of oral infections are discussed, such as constant sneezing, sinus irritations, postnasal drip, dry mouth, cardiovascular weakness, and digestive problems. The host highlights the potential consequences of untreated oral infections on energy levels, motivation, and even mental health, leading to brain fog, depression, and lack of focus, Epstein Barr, mycoplasms, biotoxins, fungus, and H. pylori. etc.
I emphasize that even diligent oral hygiene may not always be enough to prevent them.
