Bad bacteria in the mouth trigger 54 systemic inflammatory diseases, from heart disease to Alzheimer's. The inflammation doesn't stay local. It travels through your bloodstream, attacking every organ in your body.
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jonathan Levine to explore the science of oral-systemic health. We discuss his revolutionary mouth mapping system, the truth about root canals and mercury fillings, and why your primary physician might be unaware of critical health clues hiding in your mouth.
Dr. Levine reveals simple daily routines that take just three minutes but can transform your oral microbiome, plus surprising connections between mouth breathing, sleep apnea, and chronic disease that could be the missing piece in your health puzzle.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
