197. Unpacking Oral Health, Disease & Longevity with Dr. Steven Lin

My guest today is the brilliant Dr. Steven Lin, a board-certified and accredited dentist, speaker, and author who is frustrated by the dental profession's limited approach to applying practices without addressing the root cause. Inspired by the groundbreaking work of Weston A. Price, Dr. Lin has focused on oral health as the key to overall well being, now seeing the mouth as a diagnostic tool for the rest of the body. We talk about how important diet is to oral health and highlight the mini immune system in our mouths, kids’ health tips as they relate to bone density and learning healthy oral care habits, tooth decay during pregnancy, and a surprising study – with cats as the subject – that illustrates generational harm caused by the degradation of food fresh quality, affordability, and availability.  You will learn about...
