On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared explores why your oral microbiome may be one of the most overlooked foundations of whole-body health. He explains how an imbalance in the bacteria living in your mouth can influence your teeth, gums, gut, sinuses, cardiovascular system, and more. Learn why simply killing germs isn't always the answer, how biofilms contribute to ongoing dental problems, and why supporting a healthy oral ecosystem may be a better long-term strategy. Jared also shares his personal oral care routine, discusses the connection between the oral and gut microbiomes, reviews the latest research on oral probiotics, and outlines a practical protocol using clean oral care products, targeted probiotics, and lifestyle strategies to help support healthy teeth, gums, fresh breath, and overall wellness.

Most of us think of oral health as brushing, flossing, and avoiding cavities—but what if your mouth is actually one of the earliest windows into your overall health? In this eye-opening episode of The Hormone Genius Podcast, we're joined once again by holistic dentist Dr. Katie Lee, author of Saved by the Mouth, to explore the remarkable connection between oral health, fertility, hormone balance, inflammation, and even sleep. Dr. Lee explains why bleeding gums, chronic bad breath, canker sores, dry mouth, and even the shape of your tongue may be signaling much more than a dental problem. We discuss how the oral microbiome influences the entire body, including reproductive health, and why treating the mouth may be a missing piece for women struggling with infertility, endometriosis, chronic inflammation, or unexplained health concerns. We also dive into one of the most overlooked health issues affecting women: sleep-disordered breathing and sleep apnea. Dr. Lee shares why petite women are frequently overlooked, how airway health changes during perimenopause, and why symptoms like TMJ pain, anxiety, weight gain, high blood pressure, fatigue, and dry mouth may all point to an underlying airway issue rather than "just getting older." In this episode, you'll learn: • Why healthy gums should never bleed • What your breath, tongue, and mouth reveal about your overall health • How oral bacteria may contribute to infertility, miscarriage, endometriosis, and chronic inflammation • The surprising connection between the oral microbiome and reproductive health • Why saliva testing can identify hidden pathogens that routine dental exams often miss • The best floss, toothbrushes, water flossers, and oral care tips for optimal health • How perimenopause affects the mouth, and why estrogen plays a key role in oral health • The relationship between sleep apnea, cortisol, blood sugar, weight gain, heart health, and hormone balance • Signs you may have an airway problem, even if you don't snore • Why root-cause medicine should include evaluating the mouth This conversation will completely change the way you think about oral health. Whether you're trying to conceive, navigating perimenopause, or simply looking to optimize your health, you'll discover why caring for your mouth may be one of the most powerful investments you can make for your entire body. Because your mouth isn't separate from your health, it may be the place your body has been trying to get your attention all along. Hormone Genius wants YOU to partner with us!

Have you ever felt like something wasn't quite right with your health, your fertility journey, your pregnancy, or your baby's development—even though you were told everything was "normal"? In this episode, I explore the important questions that often go unasked in prenatal care and early childhood health. From oral health and breathing to nervous system regulation and feeding challenges, we're looking at the connections that deserve more attention. I'll share both the research and my own personal journey through infertility and pregnancy loss, along with the questions I wish someone had asked me sooner. If you've ever felt unheard by the healthcare system or wondered if there was more to your story, this episode will encourage you to trust your instincts, ask better questions, and discover how seemingly small details can have a lasting impact on both you and your child. If this episode helped you think differently about your health, pregnancy, or your child's development, I'd be so grateful if you would follow the podcast, leave a rating and review, and share this episode with someone who needs to hear it. Your support helps more families find these conversations and start asking the questions that truly matter. Thank you so much for listening, and I'll see you in the next episode!

Recognizing this, Deepti Brambl, Founder of Kaylaan, developed an innovative alternative: toothpaste tablets. The eco-friendly product eliminates the need for plastic packaging while providing a healthier, more sustainable oral care solution.“Toothpaste tablets are not a new concept,” Deepti explained in today's episode, “but for me, it was important to come up with a solution that is not just plastic-friendly but also chemical-free. All of our products are natural, which ties back to how I was raised.”Kaylaan has also expanded into mouthwash tablets and patented bamboo electric toothbrushes, solidifying their commitment to green innovation. The toothbrushes, with recycled plastic handles to combat mold growth, are fully compostable striking the balance between sustainability and practicality.This eco-conscious ethos stems from Deepti's Nepalese heritage, where everything was reused. After moving to the U.S., she was struck by the plastic waste culture and wanted to create an alternative that redefined oral care. She started small, testing products on Etsy. Her toothpaste tablets stood out, quickly becoming a bestseller thanks to community feedback.The company's community-centered approach is evident in the evolution of their product line, including fluoride-based formulas, strawberry- and watermelon-flavored tablets for kids, and neem-based tablets. Customers' input continues to shape Kaylaan's innovations: “Whoever came to us with requests, we worked on it,” Deepti noted.In just a few years, Kaylaan has earned B Corp certification twice, reflecting its strong commitment to sustainability. Revenue from crowdfunding has been instrumental in scaling operations. Deepti highlighted how funds from a $45,000 raise helped move the company into a new facility, upgrade machines, and achieve compliance with FDA and GMP protocols.Currently, Kaylaan is raising capital through regulated investment crowdfunding on Honeycomb Credit. This presents an exciting opportunity for sustainability-minded investors to support Deepti's vision of redefining oral care.Deepti's journey exemplifies the power of mission-driven innovation. By tackling environmental challenges head-on, Kaylaan is demonstrating how purpose and profitability can coexist in harmony.tl;dr:Kaylaan develops eco-friendly toothpaste tablets to reduce waste and promote sustainable dental care.Deepti Brambl draws inspiration from her Nepalese heritage to drive innovation at Kaylaan.Crowdfunding on Honeycomb Credit has empowered Kaylaan to scale operations and achieve regulatory compliance.Customer feedback has shaped Kaylaan's diverse products, including fluoride-based and neem-flavored options.Deepti's resilience and passion for sustainability have propelled Kaylaan's mission to new heights.How to Develop Resilience As a SuperpowerDeepti's superpower is resilience—the ability to rise after setbacks and turn challenges into opportunities. She explained, “You fall as many times as possible, because that's where real creativity, real strength, and real learning happen.” Her perseverance fuels Kaylaan, as Deepti embraces obstacles as steppingstones for growth, strength, and creativity.Deepti vividly recounted the 10-hour ordeal of relocating a 5,000-pound tablet-press machine to a new manufacturing facility. After renting a forklift that couldn't manage the task, she worked with a team of local professionals to resolve the situation. Despite setbacks, her persistence resulted in more efficient production and significant quality improvements for Kaylaan's products.Tips to Develop Resilience:View challenges as opportunities for creativity and growth.Accept failure as part of learning and keep moving forward.Build strong community and business relationships for support during tough circumstances.Prioritize preparation upfront to avoid costly mistakes later.Embrace the idea that obstacles are a pathway to innovation and strength.By following Deepti's example and advice, you can make resilience a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDeepti Brambl (she/her):Founder, KaylaanAbout Kaylaan: We make oral care better for people and the planet. Our toothpaste tablets eliminate plastic tube waste, reduce water consumption, and deliver clinically effective results — proof that a daily habit as simple as brushing your teeth can be part of a more sustainable world.Website: kaylaan.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/kaylaantoothpasteCompany Twitter Handle: @KaylaanTabsInstagram Handle: @kaylaantoothpasteOther URL: invest.honeycombcredit.com/campaigns/Kaylaan-2Biographical Information: Deepti Brambl, originally from the Himalayas, is the founder and lead engineer behind Kaylaan, a B Corp‑certified sustainable oral care company based in New York.

Nathan Jones, founder and CEO of Xlear, Inc., reveals xylitol's role in supporting oral and nasal “gateway” microbiomes by selectively starving acid-producing Strep mutans rather than indiscriminately killing bacteria, and warns that harsh mouthwashes can disrupt beneficial oral bacteria linked to nitric oxide production and possibly blood pressure. Jones outlines Spry and Xlear products (gum, mints, toothpaste, mouthwash, dry-mouth “Rain,” and upcoming gummy candies, a new dental probiotic with added nutrients, and a direct-to-consumer oral bacteria test kit with pre/post tracking). He discusses diet, emphasizing sugar as a key driver of cavities and criticizing limited focus on sugar in a Surgeon General oral health report. In part two, Jones describes ongoing and planned legal actions against the FTC over shifting evidentiary standards and reputational damage, then reviews Xlear's allergy and respiratory approach via nasal hygiene, product tiers (regular, Max with quercetin, Rescue botanicals, and a decongestant), and a forthcoming ectoine-based spray to support mucus barrier integrity.
Mouth breathing, soft diets, poor sleep, picky eating, and crowded teeth are often treated as separate issues. But many of them are connected through oral function and airway development in early childhood. In this episode, I am talking to registered dental practitioner, oral health therapist, orofacial myofunctional therapist, and founder of The Face Place, Mel Van Schelven, about toddler oral function and why it matters far beyond teeth. We discuss mouth breathing, sleep quality, chewing, facial growth, picky eating, convenience feeding products, and the practical ways parents can support healthy oral development at home. Mel and I talk about: Why the toddler years are a critical window for jaw and airway development How modern diets and ultra processed foods reduce chewing and impact oral development Why chewing is essential for jaw strength, tongue posture, swallowing, and airway health How pouches, smoothie bottles, sippy cups, and soft foods can prolong immature oral patterns The connection between mouth breathing, nervous system regulation, sleep quality, and behaviour Common signs of mouth breathing, including restless sleep, snoring, drooling, dark circles, and open mouth posture Why picky eating and soft food preferences are often linked to oral function challenges Simple ways parents can support oral development through food choices, chewing opportunities, and daily habits How oral function assessments can help identify challenges before they become bigger issues Mel Van Schelven is a registered dental practitioner, oral health therapist, orofacial myofunctional therapist, and founder of The Face Place. She supports families in understanding how oral function, breathing, sleep, and airway health influence childhood development. Mel works with parents to identify early signs of dysfunction and provide practical strategies that support healthier oral and facial development in children.

Listen to today's podcast... Want to live longer? Then smile more. Smiling is contagious. It changes our mood. It fights stress and builds your resiliency. Smiling boosts your immune system. It lowers your blood pressure and blocks pain. Part of National Smile Month is about maintaining good oral health. I just recently went to see my dentist and I didn't have it in me to lie about flossing my teeth. I just don't take the time, especially as life gets busy and rushed. And I am not the only one. Currently, research shows that a significant number of us have taken time off work in the last five years due to poor oral health. Most problems with teeth and gums are preventable with a good daily routine. Furthermore, a quarter of all adults have not visited a dentist in the past two years and a similar number only brush their teeth once a day. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency! Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Smile Month: The Oral Health Foundations recommends that we brush our teeth right before going to bed at night and on at least one other occasion throughout the day with a fluoride toothpaste. We should also cut down on how much sugary food and drinks we have, and how often we have them. And finally, we need to go to see our dentist regularly. Ultimately, the aim is to help us achieve good physical and mental wellbeing by improving our oral health. A smile might be a small gesture, yet it can have a remarkable effect on our state of mind, as well as the emotional happiness of others. Remember, If you like today's wellness tips, let me know.

When most people think about oral care, they think about toothpaste or mouthwash. But herbs have a long history of supporting the mouth, gums, and oral tissues in ways that are both practical and deeply nourishing.In this short podcast, I share three of my favorite underrated herbs for oral health and why each one works so differently.► Plantain for supporting tissue healing► Marshmallow root for soothing dry, irritated tissues► Echinacea for oral discomfort and deeper tissue supportI also talk about one of the most important shifts in herbalism: learning how to match herbs to the tissues and patterns involved instead of using the same approach for everyone.This way of thinking is exactly what Kyle Denton teaches inside the Herbal Dental Care course.

Jared starts this new series, Herbal Secrets, by diving into one of natural health's most overlooked tools: neem. Often known for its topical use, neem is far more than a simple antimicrobial—it's what Jared calls a “terrain shifter,” helping support balance in the skin and gut microbiome rather than simply eliminating microbes. You'll learn how neem may help maintain healthy microbial balance, support normal inflammatory responses, and assist the body's natural detoxification processes. Jared breaks down topical vs. internal uses, including applications for skin health, oral care, and gut support, along with practical strategies for combining neem with enzymes and probiotics. If you're dealing with persistent imbalances or looking to support whole-body resilience, this episode offers a fresh perspective on restoring balance from the inside out.

Dentistry is often treated as separate from the rest of the body, a place for cleanings, fillings, and the occasional procedure. In this conversation, Dr. Jean Nordin makes a different case: the mouth is not isolated. It's one of the clearest reflections of what's happening systemically, and in many cases, one of the first places imbalance shows up.Drawing on more than two decades in biological dentistry, Dr. Nordin walks through how oral structure, breathing patterns, diet, and stress all shape the internal environment. From early childhood development and mouth breathing to mineral loss, inflammation, and the oral microbiome, she connects the dots between what's happening in the mouth and what unfolds throughout the body.The conversation also moves into some of the more debated areas of modern dentistry – mercury fillings, root canals, wisdom teeth, and hidden jawbone issues – and how these interventions can interact with the body's broader regulatory systems. Along the way, she explains why prevention is less about products and more about habits, and why rebuilding health is far more difficult than maintaining it from the start.A major throughline is diet – particularly sugar – and its role in shaping the terrain not just of the mouth, but the entire organism. Dr. Nordin speaks candidly about how deeply sugar is embedded in modern culture, how it influences the microbiome and behavior, and why meaningful change often requires a level of discipline that runs counter to the norm.This is a look at oral health as part of a much larger system...one that ties together structure, environment, and daily choices in ways that are easy to overlook, but difficult to ignore once seen.Learn more about Dr. Jean Nordin and her work at https://www.grotonwellness.com/.Support Terrain Theory on Patreon!

Today: bringing oral health into the public health conversation with Flora Nathan, assistant secretary for the Bureau of Oral Health in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. At her first ASTHO Spring Leadership Forum, Flora shares a candid look at the challenges and opportunities of delivering oral healthcare across a U.S. remote island nation. From severe workforce shortages and long clinic wait times to the ripple effects on families, schools, and local economies, she highlights how oral health is deeply connected to broader public health outcomes. She also discusses the importance of integrating oral health into maternal and child health programs, school-based care, and community outreach, as well as the realities of operating without consistent funding.

Your membership directly supports the podcast and the work we do.We've been fed lies about our oral health.Dr. Marc DiNola is a biological dentist who has spent more than three decades in clinical practice and over a decade focused on approaches that prioritize removing toxicity and addressing underlying causes. His background includes formal training at the University of Maryland and advanced study in masticatory diagnosis and treatment, along with ongoing work in dental ozone therapy and nutrition education.This conversation reframes the mouth as part of a larger system rather than an isolated part of the body. Dental issues begin to look different when you consider nutrition, microbial balance, and the role of hidden infections that may not present with pain.We question why certain materials and procedures remain common even when concerns are widely acknowledged. That tension points toward a deeper conversation about what it means to restore form, function, and long-term health.Those questions matter if you've started to question conventional approaches to health and want to better understand how oral health connects to the rest of the body.You'll learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:15] How Dr. Marc went from a conventional dentist to a biological dentist[13:29] What Weston A.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. William Levine, a board-certified periodontist and chief scientist at Peri Active Oral Rinse.
Oral Health, Inflammation, and Periodontal Disease: Dr. William Levine, a board-certified periodontist and chief scientist at Peri Active Oral Rinse, offers a deep-dive on periodontal disease as an infectious inflammatory condition with autoimmune-like tissue destruction. It affects over 50% of U.S. adults over 35 and rises with age. He details bidirectional links between gum disease and systemic conditions, including cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes, and some dementias, and notes signs such as bleeding, pain, swelling, loose or shifting teeth, and gum recession. Levine explains plaque, dysbiosis, and biofilms, emphasizing mechanical plaque removal to preserve a healthy oral microbiome. Standard care includes scaling and root planing, possible surgery, and lasers; antiseptic rinses like chlorhexidine can be harsh and limited against biofilms. Levine describes a plant-bioactive rinse (gotu kola, echinacea, elderberry) designed to reduce harmful bacteria, penetrate gums, lower inflammation, and promote repair; xylitol may help via saliva stimulation. He also addresses smoking, dry mouth, fluoride toothpaste, interdental cleaning, and osteoporotic drugs' dental risks.
Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Christina: Dr. Cabral, thank you so much for all you do for our community. My question is about oral health and specifically the use of the 360 one-piece toothbrushes that take 30 seconds to clean the teeth (I.e. Autobrush). Do you think they are as effective as the sonic electric toothbrushes and what is your opinion on them? Additionally, one can choose the fluoride free toothpaste versions, but they require a foaming agent to work. I like the fact that these toothbrushes require less time overall and seem to clean all the teeth, but am a little concerned about the foaming toothpaste that are required for them to wok. Thank you! Barbara: What is the 12,000 FU that you referred to in your post. Tricia: Hi Dr. Cabral - I'm trying to figure out if I should take your berberine or daily gluco support. Can you please explain the difference, and which one might be better for a 56-year-old female that does struggle to keep weight off and balance blood sugar. I'm not diabetic but I watch it closely. Thank you! Alex: Hi Dr. Cabral, I am a 37-year-old female diagnosed with JAK2-positive essential thrombocythemia five years ago. My diagnosis followed after an initial finding of iron deficiency. It was confirmed through a bone biopsy. I have recently started following your show and am focused on finding the root cause. I would like to avoid progressing to chemotherapy medications if at all possible. To manage inflammation and support detoxification, I maintain an anti-inflammatory diet, exercise at least five days a week, use a sauna, and take various supplements. My biggest symptom with this disease is fatigue. Could you point me in the right direction of finding the root cause and help lowering my platelet count? Thank you! Alex Samantha: Hi Dr Cabral, I went into an adrenal crisis in 2023 and was diagnosed with Primary Addison disease and hashimotos. I also have undifferentiated connective tissue disease. I take steroids and thyroid mediation, and also work with an N.D. for recurring EBV, h pylori, and candida. I have reduced the hashimotos antibodies drastically and have hope to eventually go into remission, but my question is, is it possible to heal or go into remission with Primary Addison disease and not be dependent on steroids? Or is it true that with primary Addison disease, the adrenals are "toast?" Though I have reduced the hashimotos antibodies, the 21-hydroxlase Addison antibody is still present. Would love any tips or suggestions. Thank you!!

What health habits actually protect your brain and long-term health? In this episode, Professor Tim Spector shares the seven health ideas he has changed his mind about after reviewing new research. From oral health and inflammation to vitamin D, sleep, and exercise, Tim explains the daily habits he now prioritises and helps us understand what we should do differently if the science changes. Tim revisits 7 common health beliefs and explains how new evidence has shifted his thinking. He explores the link between oral health, inflammation and brain ageing, and discusses vitamin D, sunlight and omega-3s. The conversation also looks at sleep timing, exercise and how everyday habits interact with our biology. Tim also shares the small changes he now makes in his own routine and provides practical ideas for incorporating them into your daily life. We all know that science evolves as new evidence emerges, so if the research changes, should our daily health habits change too?
