The gut has influence on digestion, immunity, metabolism—even emotions and personality. Do your patients have the guts to douse the flames of inflammation? Our patients’ gut flora makes powerful anti-inflammatory agents when fed key nutrients. Learn the impact antibiotics, jet lag, fast food, artificial sweeteners, sedentary living, and stress have on gut integrity. New science from the National Institute of Health has shown your patients' microbiome impacts overall health as much as their genes, and the number-one way to influence it is diet. As dental professionals, we are the health care industry that is in charge of the eating apparatus.
