Nadine Artemis on Holistic Oral Health, Fluoride and Glycerin Dangers, Oil Pulling, Mercury Filling Side Effects and More
Waking up with a bright and healthy smile, ready to kiss the day is not just desirable on a cosmetic level, it is actually fundamental to our overall health and wellbeing. Our teeth are, literally, alive. And the health of our oral microbiome has a profound influence on our gut health, our mental health and immune system. And we can take charge of our oral health.

Nadine is the author of Holistic Dental Care: The Complete Guide to Healthy Teeth and Gums. She is also the founder of Living Libations, the renegade beauty company that provides unique organic products for inside out beauty, health and wellness.
