Summary

In this powerful and practical episode, Darin sits down with biological dentist and functional health pioneer Dr. Michelle Jorgensen, who shares the truth most dentists never tell you: your mouth is a mirror of your entire body’s health. After mercury poisoning nearly ended her career, Michelle embarked on a radical healing journey—becoming a patient, a student, and ultimately a healer in the truest sense.

Together, Darin and Michelle expose the shocking gaps in traditional dentistry, from hidden oral infections and toxic root canals to how your mouth affects your brain, heart, and gut. This episode is a masterclass in reclaiming your health from the inside out—starting with your teeth.
