The Oral-Systemic Connection & Personalized Nutrition Interventions
The oral and gut microbiomes have a complex relationship influenced by several factors, including the micronutrients, macronutrients, and phytochemicals that we consume. Research suggests that the intestinal microbiome can be influenced by diet, and that these dietary interventions, while they may not result in the same responsiveness in all patients, may improve the symptoms and outcomes of a broad spectrum of diseases such as obesity, diabetes mellitus, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, colorectal cancer, cardiovascular disease, and more. Today on Pathways to Well-Being we are talking with Megan Barnett, functional medicine nutritionist, about the oral-systemic connection and the role of personalized nutrition on these microbiota. We will be discussing how the oral microbiome influences inflammatory pathways via the gut creating dysbiosis, and how personalized nutrition may help bring the body back into balance.
