There was a recent paper that showed that ginger pains are even found in your brain.

Wow.

And if it translocates from your oral cavity into your blood, it goes throughout your whole system and it causes all of these other issues.

Jeez.

And also, you see, the thing is, every day we swallow our saliva, right?

And we basically, you know, our gut health gets transformed by whatever we are eating, whatever we are swallowing.

Your digestion actually begins in your mouth, right?

So you better take care of your mouth.

If you take care of your mouth, a lot of other things also get taken care of.

So...

That's the lesson that I've learned in the last few years.

Well, you know what?

I cannot tell you that our science says that yet.

Okay, it's possible.

You know, there's a lot of things that we're discovering every single day.

But I will tell you for sure that there is a lot of connection between your gut health, your oral health, your cardiovascular health, your brain health, right?

So those connections are definitely there, whether it's a single tooth or whether it's your whole...

Cavity, it's difficult to tell with our science.

What our science says is that when you get saliva from an individual, we can measure the activity of these pathways.

And we can see whether that's impacting your heart health, your brain health, and so forth.
