  1. Hi Dr Li - Did you really mean to group xylitol - a pentose sugar shown to increase the bacteria that form butyrate in the gut - in with other less healthy substitute sugars? Xylitol has been shown in two big studies in Malawi to reduce the risk of preterm birth in pregnant women, to improve the microbiome of children and young adults so they can avoid the dangers of plastic sealants and other dental treatments, and for over 40 years I have seen how xylitol can be an incredible help to adults who are fighting plaque problems.

  2. Dental floss also contains PFAS and I’ve been trying to warn people about this for years. Thanks for your concern. Plastic sealants and fillings are another terrible source of microplastics. I think between dentistry and cooking are two major contributors.

  3. Dear Dr. Li - you are so wonderful.... I really enjoy your videos and all the great practical tips that you share. I'm on a longevity journey myself - trying to remain healthy and enjoy life. Oral health is also a part of the body that contributes to this longevity equation.

  5. For years I have been trying to get dentists and doctors to talk about the connections between oral and systemic health. Thank you for connecting oral and systemic health ...I am one of your biggest fans :) We also know that biting on a tooth - compresses the periodontal ligaments and sends a message to the brain - where orexin is released. Orexin impacts cognitive function. Maybe this explains why early and complete loss of teeth has long been associated with dementia.

  6. We still have horrible studies that don’t regard other risk co-factors or interpret with sufficient clinical knowledge. We just had this total confusion in the xylitol world - and also in some mouthwash studies that have scared everyone in 2024. Why don’t scientists doing studies talk with clinicians to see if their hypothesis is missing something?

  8. Terrific information as always. Thank you for being so interesting and informative - I actually like Dr. Gundry a lot more after this interview with you :) I was sure he was wrong about lectins - and the fermentation info he shared was so interesting. Thanks again for all your info...priceless :)
