Anthropologists will tell you that, of all body parts preserved in the fossil record, going back thousand or even millions of years, teeth are the best preserved, even better than bone. And teeth are, of course, the entryway into the gastrointestinal tract, the first exposure to whatever food you are ingesting or chewing.
We often think of teeth as these inert things, but they are not. They are biologically responsive influenced by many factors, but especially the composition of diet. So, in this episode of Defiant Health, let’s consider what teeth can tell us about the human diet: how to eat, how not to eat, how teeth can instruct us on what and how the human body is adapted to the components of diet, and how a simple practice can make or break the difference in dental health.
