In this week’s episode of the Reflection Health Podcast, Katy and Machell start their series on ‘inflammation’ by looking at the oral-systemic link involved, highlighting the impact of pathogens spreading throughout the rest of the body.   Episode Highlights:   The 5 major environmental factors causing inflammation How inflammation presents in the body, especially the mouth How pathogens, especially Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), affect the body The role Candida plays in inflammation Machell’s book recommendation: ‘The Shift’ by Dr. Dewitt Wilkerson   Quotes:   “Gut health is associated with everything.” “We could even say that in our mouth we have leaky mouth, leaky gums, just like leaky gut.” “Our responsibility as clinicians…is to know how to educate, how to look for these signs of inflammation, and how to educate and treat our patients.” “Those joints are riddled with Pg, bacteria from the mouth – I mean, that shocks our patients when we tell them!” “What you’re finding in the mouth is found in the rest of the body.” “One of the key points here…today is to work towards making sure that these environments are balanced.” “Your body cannot be healthy if your mouth is not healthy.” “This stuff gets us so excited!” “We could literally have a podcast-a-thon for like 38 hours on just inflammation!” “We want to get our patients healthy and keep them there forever because that’s where real quality of life starts.” Links: The Dental Podcast Network Channel One homepage:  http://dentalpodcastnetworkchannelone.otcpn.libsynpro.com/   The Dental Podcast Network Channel Two homepage: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dental-podcast-networks-channel-two/id1478530429   Productive Dentist Academy homepage: https://productivedentist.com/   Katy’s email:   [email protected]   Machell’s email:   [email protected]
