Wellness Beyond Dentistry: A Conversation with Dr. Uche Odiatu

Welcome to the Dental Alements Podcast! Our guest today is Dr. Uche Odiatu, a dentist with over 25 years of experience and a focus on wellness. Dr. Odiatu is a certified trainer and author of several books, and has spoken at over 500 lectures in seven countries over the past 15 years. Dr. Odiatu has a unique perspective on the intersection of food and health, with a particular focus on the gut biome and gut health. He believes that wellness is about more than just dental health, and emphasizes the importance of nutrition, sleep, stress management, and movement for overall well-being. One key to Dr. Odiatu's success as a speaker is his passion for his work. He encourages his audiences to ask themselves, "How can I have fire in my eyes?" and to focus on what they want rather than what they don't want. Setting intentions and declaring them publicly can help manifest them. Dr. Odiatu also emphasizes the importance of being a lifelong learner and avoiding those who claim to know everything. He believes in letting the patient be the star of the appointment, and encourages dentists to learn from their patients and make them feel confident. When it comes to fitness, Dr. Odiatu recommends taking a slow and steady approach, and notes that people who live the longest often have the most basic fitness plans. And when it comes to diet, he advocates for balancing pleasure and function for overall good health.
