In this episode of the Holistic Savage podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Haroldo Magarinos, a dentist and functional medicine expert, to explore the intricate connections between oral health, the microbiome, and systemic health. We discuss how the immune system's activation begins in the mouth, the importance of understanding the microbiome for treating oral health issues, and the impact of diet and lifestyle on overall health. We delve into the critical role of the mouth microbiome in overall health, emphasizing its connection to the immune system and gut health, examine the rising concern of environmental toxins and their detrimental effects on health, particularly chronic illnesses and provide practical strategies for reducing toxic burden.
