v DR. MICHELLE JORGENSEN, DDS After a decade and a half of studying and practicing dentistry and medicine so that she could keep others well, Dr. Michelle Jorgensen, DDS' own body was sick. As a young mom of four busy, growing children, she was stretched between a demanding business and a taxing home life. She had no energy and felt like she could barely keep her head above water. She couldn't sleep through the night or hold her dental instruments without pain and numbness in her hands and arms. Her diet had been whittled down to a few “safe” foods that she could eat without stomach pain, and her once very sharp memory couldn't remember crucial details about patients and procedures. Something was very wrong but a plethora of doctors, blood tests, scopes, and X-rays all told her it was stress.  There was one test the doctors didn't run and she asked for at the suggestion from a new practitioner friend—mercury toxicity.  “When my test results came back, I was floored,” says Dr. Jorgensen. “My mercury levels were so high they were off the charts. Finally, I had an answer, and it was simple. The mercury in those seemingly innocent fillings that I had been removing from my patients' teeth was poisoning me and my cells. After learning about my toxic mercury levels, I swung between disbelief and anger that, as a dentist, I hadn't been warned about this inherent danger, and profound relief that I had an answer for what was causing my body's systems to fail.” Her five-year path to recovery led Dr. Jorgensen to discover ways to improve her family's and her own health in all facets of life. Now, her new book breaks down what “health” really means for every cell in your body. In Living Well with Dr. Michelle: A Comprehensive Handbook for Optimal Health and Unlimited Energy (BenBella, May 20th, 2025), Dr. Michelle makes it simple, breaking down the true meaning of health at the cellular level and beyond. Drawing from time-tested wisdom and evidence-based modern science, she provides a clear, practical path to lasting well-being.  Watch Dr. Michelle's intro video here.  We talk about:             ●      How to Have the Energy You Want, Without Getting Lost in Today's Health Trends ●      The Secret to Lasting Energy: Your Cells ●      Fueling Your Body with What It Needs (Eating seasonally, prioritizing whole foods, staying hydrated, including health fats) ●      Creating a Healthy Environment for Your Cells (reduce toxins, manage stress, support you detox system, rest and recover) ●      Protecting Your Cells from Harm (boost your immune system, exercise, avoid overexposure from toxins, connect with nature) ●      Communicating with Your Cells (daily movement, deep breathing, rest, listen to your body's signals) ●      Why medicine is just a band-aid—Your cells do the healing      ●      Why your symptoms are not the enemy—They are the answer  ●      If you can keep one cell well, you can keep them all well—Introducing the Cell Well Model ●      The Fluoride controversy and brain health ●      Mercury toxicity and hidden dangers in dentistry- Dr. Michelle's personal journey  ●      Oxygen's connection to inflammation and what your mouth is telling you about your health   www.livingwellwithdrmichelle.com

My guest is Dr. Staci Whitman, DMD, a board-certified functional dentist for kids and adults. We discuss the critical importance of oral care and the oral microbiome for brain and bodily health. We examine the negative effects of common oral care product ingredients such as alcohol, astringents, and bleaches. We also explore the history and real impact of fluoridated drinking water on oral, bone, and systemic health. Then we discuss healthy, lesser-known solutions for bad breath, canker sores, cavities, and teeth whitening. We cover how teeth can be made to repair their own cavities and the connection between oral health and cardiovascular health, male and female fertility, dementia, and cancer. This episode goes far beyond the best approaches to brushing and flossing and will be a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their oral health and appearance at any age.

What dental care practices are helpful and which are overly hyped? Is it a good idea to use oral exercise devices? What about tongue scraping and flossing? What should we look out for when it comes to toothpaste and mouthwash? Dr. Dominik Nischwitz, author of It's All in Your Mouth, highlights what is best for strong healthy teeth and a beautiful smile. He separates fact from fiction. He goes over how to cultivate a healthy oral microbiome and he also addresses the issue of "leaky gums". And he leaves us with three key questions to ask ourselves to help determine if our health concerns could be related to oral health.   Visit Dr. Dominik's website: DrDomeOfficial.com Join the Weston A.

Tree Swallows and bluebirds — like this Western Bluebird — are among the earliest northbound migrants to arrive, heralding spring a month before the equinox. These species will nest only in cavities, such as old woodpecker holes or man-made nest boxes. But the supply of specialized nest sites is limited, and competition is intense. By arriving early, these swallows and bluebirds improve their chances of securing unoccupied cavities.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

Nearly every child today is developing with an airway that's too small for their tongue, and most parents have no idea it's happening.In this crucial conversation with Dr. Hilary Fritsch, an airway-focused dentist, we expose why so many American children need braces, struggle with focus, or experience chronic health issues. The truth is, symptoms like mouth breathing, snoring, frequent ear infections, and even ADHD-like behavior aren't random - they're often signs of an underdeveloped airway and jaw.The most frustrating part? This epidemic is entirely preventable with early intervention.

One of my favorite guests that I have the pleasure of speaking with all year is Dr. Praveen Arany. This episode now makes it three years running that he has jumped on the podcast to have a highly informative conversation centered around photobiomodulation (PBM). Being one of the most respected researchers and worldwide experts in the PBM field, these episodes with Dr. Arany are always gems. They feel like we (the audience) are receiving the combination of some tantalizing scuttlebutt from the PBM world while also having some FAQs and concepts clarified, which I've been accruing over the past year since our last conversation. During today's conversation, Dr. Arany provides his insight and perspective on the PBM Conference that took place in London back in late August. We also cover an array of red light therapy topics (i.e., PBM), such as the importance of correct dosage when carrying out treatments, clarification on the issue surrounding sauna use with PBM, the role of various color and wavelengths, blue light and its  biological impact and use cases in PBM, red light therapy's potential use for seasonal affective disorder, how PBM can affect oral health and much more!   Dr. Praveen Arany is trained as a dentist and an oral pathologist. He completed a joint PhD-Residency program at Harvard University as a Harvard Presidential Scholar.
