Hey Heal Squad! We often talk about gut health, inflammation, and brain fog, but what if it all starts in your mouth? In Part 2 of our conversation with world-renowned dentist and oral wellness expert Dr. Jonathan Levine, they dive deep into how oral health isn’t just about cavities and cleanings, but a direct reflection of your whole-body health. Dr. Levine explains how the oral microbiome impacts your immune system, digestion, cognitive health, and even your risk of chronic disease. You’ll learn how mouth bacteria can travel through your body via the gut and bloodstream. And yes, your daily dental routine plays a much bigger role than you think. He also breaks down his “4-minute protocol” for optimal oral hygiene to protect your mouth (and your brain). Tune in and discover the power of preventative oral care, inside and out!  HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  Mouth microbes = full-body mess: Poor oral hygiene can allow harmful bacteria to enter your bloodstream, disrupting gut health, triggering inflammation, and impacting your overall health. Daily habits matter: Dr. Levine explains how a 4-minute oral health protocol can dramatically improve energy, immunity, and long-term wellness. Your mouth talks to your brain: Emerging science shows that oral health is deeply connected to cognitive decline. Dr. Levine reveals how dental inflammation could be a hidden contributor to brain fog, Alzheimer’s, and more. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjonlevine/?hl=en Website: https://www.drjonathanlevine.com/  Smile House: https://www.instagram.com/smilehousetribeca/  JBL: https://www.instagram.com/jblnewyorkcity/  If you're in NYC, Dr. Levine is offering one complimentary whitening treatment when you book a Mouth Mapping appointment at Smile House or JBL NYC.
