Podcast Episode #114: The Truth Behind Oral Health Products and Your Mouth’s Ecosystem

As promised, today I elucidate the facts on a certain mouth care protocol that is being talked about on the web. I will comment with my opinions of the products and why you should steer clear of them. This kit creates more disease, more problems, and more long term health issues. Listen to today’s podcast for my full analysis and for alternative recommendations.
