288// Top 4 Oral Health Habits to Boost Gut Health

This week, a client of mine in our program, the Better Belly Blueprint, asked me a this question:

"Do you have any recommendations on what could be done to improve oral health, as a way to improve general belly health?"

With his question, I realized - yes, I do! But I did not have it as a podcast episode.

Therefore, on today's episode, I'm sharing my TOP 4 oral health habits I recommend to boost gut health.

If you are ready to have the best gut health - and whole body health - of your life, and not waste your time or money on practices that don't matter - this episode is for you.
