There’s even a correlation between root canals and depression that we cover in this episode. Biological -also known as holistic or natural- dentistry is based on the principle that oral health is intrinsically linked to our overall physical health and wellness. Biological dentistry is a revolutionary approach that integrates the entire body's health with dental care, extending beyond just the teeth and gums.

Biological dentists often employ methods like ceramic dental implants and mercury removal techniques.

    Wildfires: How to Protect Yourself at Home

    Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. And, guess what friends? It’s wildfire season. Think you don’t live in an area that’s affected? Think again. Smoke can travel for miles beyond its source. In 2020, smoke from wildfires in the Western United States drifted for almost 5,000 miles, eventually being detected as far away as Europe. That’s important when considering that the primary cause of death from wildfires is smoke inhalation; according to the National Fire Protection Association, 50 to 80 percent of fire deaths are from smoke inhalation. Our guest and CEO of IQAir North America, Glory Dolphin Hammes, is an expert in environmental control, a Certified Indoor Environmentalist, and a licensed HVAC contractor. KEY TAKEAWAYS How wildfires impact people The percentage of wildfires that humans cause The amount of damage wildfires do, how fast they move, and how much space they burn annually How wildfires impact our health The type of VOCs and other dangerous contaminants present in smoke The individuals most at risk for severe health consequences from smoke The factors and conditions that could drive wildfire risk in the months ahead Tips to protect yourself both indoors and outdoors from poor air quality?

    Ways Nasal Hygiene Can Improve Your Health

    Do you or have you suffered from allergies, chronic sinus issues, dry nose with chronic crusting (yup, we’re going there), or use a CPAP machine? If so, you are in the right place. Today, we’re taking a deep dive into your nose, no really!  The health of our nose is often overlooked as an important aspect of our overall health.  When we breathe through the nose, germs, allergens, toxins, smoke, dust, and particles can get trapped in the skin and hair inside our nostrils. Think about it, the nose is a direct link between the outside air and our respiratory system. Contaminants in the air can cause inflammation and lead to an allergic response, sinus issues, and other upper respiratory problems. Our nose functions like an air filter for the body and it's important to keep air filters clean. Someone who is here to shed light is our guest, Dr. Lebovic. Dr. Gail Lebovic is an internationally recognized oncoplastic surgeon, a patient advocate, an inventor, and a serial entrepreneur. Currently, Dr. Lebovic serves as the Founder and CEO of Silicon Valley Innovations, Inc. The company is focused on bringing novel drug delivery platforms to the multi-billion-dollar nasal healthcare and feminine healthcare markets. She is also the Founder of the Society of Oncoplastic Surgery. KEY TAKEAWAYS What inspired Dr. Lebovic to create a product designed for cleaning the nose Why we are seeing nasal and sinus issues and the contributing factors that people face every day that result in these health issues Ways we can help our noses be healthier and how it will help people maintain better health Why nasal hygiene is not part of our regular hygiene routine How NasoClenz can help CPAP users The role the nose play in allergies, and if the nose has a way of cleaning itself How NasoClenz specifically is helpful for someone who might have allergies Key tips to maintain wellness during cold/flu and allergy seasons To learn more about Nasoclenz, visit them at https://nasoclenz.com/. They’ve got so many convenient options including home and travel kits. Also, you can find their store locator tab to find Nasoclenz near you.
