This week on the Less Stressed Life, we’re talking about what your mouth is really saying about your health. 🦷

Dr. Nammy Patel joins me to unpack how oral bacteria, inflammation, and even how you breathe reflect what’s happening in your body. We talk “leaky mouth,” nitric oxide, and simple habits—like nose breathing and saliva support—that help your body heal from the inside out.

If you’ve dealt with recurring issues or inflammation that won’t quit, this episode will change how you think about prevention.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
• Your mouth mirrors whole-body health
• “Leaky mouth” drives systemic inflammation
• Dry mouth throws off your microbiome
