  Dental Hygienist here for 20 years...just finished a research paper on the bi-directional relationship between gum disease and type 2 diabetes. Yes, the connection is the inflammation-immune response dynamic. Please take your oral healthcare seriously!🦷

  I am a dual trained doctor and dentist and I was initially fearful where this discussion would go. However I am deeply impressed by this dentist’s explanation and translation of complex ideas. She is a good advocate for this topic. Great interview

  My Dutch dentist has been advocating proper dental and gum health since I joined him 10 years ago. I remember him saying that at least 50% of your health depends on your oral health.

  Note: sugar is the worst cause for all of these diseases. Cancer, Arthritis, atherosclerosis,  brain diseases, dementia, etc. All made much worse by eating sugar. This should be a mandatory topic in all school curricula. We must do more to force people to reduce sugar consumption.

  5 minutes in. I was involved with snimal rescue in the 80's. We found that there was a corelation between cats having severe tooth decay & resulting heart disease. We stated bacteria from teeth enter the bloodstream. We were called "crazy cat lades " & were not taken seriously.  35 yrs later we were proven right

  She should teach a Master Class on this. There's a class on sleep, gut health, but nothing on oral and dental health. Such important information!

  I lost my Dad in 2010 because of this very thing.  The doctors said he had an bacterial infection that started in his mouth and now was in his blood stream. He was given antibiotics and was supposed to be released from the hospital the next day or two. Sadly, that night in the hospital,  he had a massive heart attack. We spent a long 7 weeks in icu. After his death, we figured out that his new dentures had to do with his infection. They didn’t fit right and he had sores on his gums which led to his bacterial infection and heart attack. He was 74 years old, walking 18 holes of golf a few days  before his onset infection. Please take good care of your gums and teeth.

  Dr Ellie Phillips has spoken of the importance and relevance to a healthy oral microbiome for many, many years.

  My husband at the age of 25, now 44, had dental work done. A certain bacteria entered his body via his mouth post dental repair (and later removal due to poor repair) and attacked a weak heart valve that he had unbeknownst to him and he developed ‘homophiles parainfluenza’ which they were able to fix but only via open heart surgery. Oral hygiene is so important. I was fixated on every word.

  I don’t understand why she didn’t mentioned fermented foods. Kefir, sauerkraut, natto, yogurt, even kombucha, which is literally fermented green tea. Those foods are the best thing to improve the microbiome of the whole body, giving you a huge boost to microbe diversity, not to mention the other benefits like enzymes, vitamins, fatty acids, etc…
