Dhru STOP STOP STOP talking over ur guest!!!!!!!
@@LithaMoonSong Studies?
Is the news letter free?
You need to let the dentist talk! I wanted to hear his expertise,
I have researched his website, wanted to hear more from him. 😅
Im disapointed in how much the host talks. Interrupting the guest and using up valuable time where the guest should be sharing their valuable information .
Tried to listen to this three times but found it difficult to finish due to constant interruptions. It’s understandable that we are all strive for best health but is the point of inviting a guest is letting him talk?
Read the transcript easier to get the details!
I agree with b2ful.
I love Drew's podcast but here he behaves like he's on crack.
Drew, why bother to invite an expert if you keep interrupting and putting in your own (layman) smarts?????
It's not like you. I was dumbfounded by this.
You're lucky if this guy comes back on your show!!!!
I was struck by the same! And I found myself wanting to shout “shut up”. It was so rude!
I agree. If one invites a guest and an expert, let them share their knowledge. Too many interruptions.
I thought I was the only one noticing. It's so different from the other interviews.
MY GOODNESS LET YOUR GUESS TALK
guest* talk.* goodness,* (You gave extra spacing, too.) All CAPS...
Mr Dhru I suggest that you seek some counseling to help you to learn the Art Of Listening. This is an incredible guest to have on your show but the constant interruptions from you were just not fair to him. Perhaps you should take some lessons from him as he was doing a Great job listening to you and not interrupting you. I suggest you offer the same courtesy to your guests in the future that your guest allowed you.
Like many others, the podcast is USED AS their therapy
Agree, let the guest speakers, he doesn't need you over talking him.
OMG going through lots of health issues due to bad dental work…especially root canals. I wished I would have known this years ago to take charge of my oral care and not just rely in dentist decisions!!! But will educate my kids better …
I got rid of my one eye tooth that had a root canal and a cap 30 yrs ago,,
I felt so much better immediately as dentist pulled it out.
He continued to pull all the rest too. I am so glad all the bad teeth are gone.
Going to get a second dentist to do a inspection and evaluation of first dentist. I might have second dentist do any tooth fragment removel and take down any high spots that will get in way of dentures & make dentures for me..😊😊
Plus I am practicing water fasting that takes away a fatty tongue which causes different folks to need a sea-pap breathing device. I don't need one of those myself..😊😊
People eat too much,
Much too often,
We humans are good to eat every 36 t 48 hrs..
I do this and I have huge energy level.
96% Carnivore, No Processed foods.
No sugary foods or sweets.
Let's all practice healthy natural food eating habits..
Second dentist I see in a few days. A friend recommended him.
Have a great day tomorrow.😊
@DhruPurohit Long time subscriber here. I hope you read the comments on this episode. I was relieved to read most of us had the same issue, to much Dru and not enough guest. Please, please, please have the good Dr back and let HIM do most of the talking.
let the man speak. 😐😐😐
The amount of times you interupt makes it hard to watch.
My dentist told me that my gums looked awesome and asked what I was doing. I told him that I brushed and flossed once a day (before bedtime) and was following a keto diet. He responded by saying that all of his patients on a keto diet had excellent gums and teeth. So I asked why doesn’t he recommend a keto diet. He said that he was a dentist and wasn’t going to give nutrition advice.
Yeah the keto diet Would put dentists out of business
He is correct...people sue!!!!
The dentist might want to soul search. Is he a technician or a healer? He could tell his patients, but inform them and to cover himself that he is not officially qualified to provide nutrition advice.
Your dentist wants to keep making money by keeping his patients full of cavities and that's obviously why he doesn't recommend keto for oral health. lol. That's just how it is because with no problem there's no reason for the solution.
Medical doctors are trained to give nutritional advice. You would be better off-seeing a Registered dietician. There is a lot of misinformation about what is really healthy . A keto diet is not it.
You need to stop talking so much and let your guest speak!
First time here and really enjoying your guest. But.., ouch please stop interrupting your guest.
My favorite dentist on RUclips.
A real caregiver , who WANTS to HELP people by his valuable experience, knowledge and good will.
Pretty rare nowadays.
I wish the host would talk LESS.
I would like to hear the guest more, less the
host
I would have liked to hear more from the dentist. You talked about you the whole time!
My beloved mom lost most of her teeth before her 50's. She had dentures afterwards.
She had stomach issues and had her gallbladder removed which I tie the stomach issues causing the gallbladder issues . He's diet was altered as she would eat fermented foods, greasy foods sour foods. She developed dementia in her late 80's . She didn't recognize me as her daughter. She died at 90 due to medical malpractice. She was getting gastroscopy for stomach ulcers and her esophagus was perforated. Behind the esophagus is aorta which most likely was severed so she bled out to death during the procedure. They didn't even try to resuscitate her.
My mom's mother loved till 96 with all her teeth without brushing. She ate sauerkraut few times a week as she lived on a farm growing her own food. She too had Alzheimer's.
I'm in my 50's and paying attention to my health as I'm fortunate to have the right information.
Since I've changed my diet to keto, I no longer have cavities, my insulin resistance is good. Last year have changed toothpaste and this year stopped using mouthwash. Today I've learned about silk dental floss which is going to replace the industry standard floss . I used to brush my tongue with the toothbrush at the end of my teeth brushing routine. .
Dr Ellie has good advice on dental health.
Are you saying fermented foods are bad for your health?
@@sherylmcguire1790I just discovered Dr. Ellie last week. Have you tried her system? If so I would like know more about how it has it worked out for you?
A
Usianya sangat panjang bisa sampai 90 tahun
The best dental advice I’ve come across is Dr. Ellie Phillips’ here in RUclips. Using her protocols has completely transformed my oral health.
Dr Ellie's program is a whole system. She contradicts many of this speakers claims. She says floss 'string' and a scraper dont kill the bacteria in the mouth. Dr Ellie gives a whole system of mouth rinses and brushing that works synergistically.
Yup!! Her system is great and no flossing!! I’ve had good success too. I had no problems with my teeth except cracks from large amalgams done in elementary school.
Hard to get ACT fluoride mouthwash in Canada!
I’m confused. Recently I started on her protocol, now this one is totally different. He does not recommend mouthwash at all. The two are completely different. They both like xylitol.
Yes I noticed the differences too. Not sure what to say except pray then listen. My teeth have been white and no dark tartar, UNTIL my dentist gave me chlorihexadine. Not sure why he gave it to me, maybe because they don’t know about the mouthwashes I was already using and 2 of my teeth broke off so maybe he thought that would keep infection away. But that stuff turned the tartar dark!
I would ask the question if Listerine kills all bacteria, I don’t think it does, as the results it gets do not appear to support that idea. Chlorohexadine likely does though.
Yup. Me too😊
DHru.....
Let him talk....
Great info but wayyyy too many interruptions!!! Can't finish watching but will seek other videos with this doctor.
Let us hear the guest
Dhru, I really like the guest you have on your show and your content. I am a subscriber and have liked many of your videos. But Dhru, please let the guest speak more.
😂stop Kevin....sheep....copy cat....leave ...don't follow if you don't like
I agree let your guess talk
I think the two of them are excited by this topic. I don't think the interviewer is being rude or interruptivebto the quest. I appreciate this topic and I Thank them both for making this conversation lively and informative. Thank you guys.
Make the longer... Or have the Dr Back....
I attempted to shut this podcast down several times, but wanted to hear what the dentist has to say. The host need to talk less.
set the speed of the video to x2, Dhru becomes a buzz, and Mark remains understandable.
Please do not interrupt such an interesting guest, let him talk. HE is the expert, not you!!!
Please can you stop talking and let your guest do some talking also, most annoying
I recently started using CPAP for my sleep apnea, and one benefit I noticed immediately is breathing through my nose, and not waking up to dry mouth.
I didn’t hear any mention of oil pulling. How do you feel about that with respect to maintaining a healthy oral micro biome?
Oil turns to liquid like any other liquid in the mouth and the dentist did say that manual brushing or gum massage or scraping was the only way to go. Liquids don't do it for ya.
Great information. However, So annoying that the host keeps talking over the guest. He’s on there for his information, so why do you ask him a question and then talk over him when he is answering??!. I noticed that it’s very distracting to the guest who is trying to finish the train of thought and keeps getting interrupted. Just let the man finish his sentences please.
Other interviewers here on RUclips with large followings do the same. You wonder if they just got here early. It's so obvious they ike to hear themselves talk. ☹
I agree!
I enjoy hearing the guest however the host is talking way too much and too rapidly over the host
dude, too many interruptions… come on , let him finish the whole sentence
Yes! I agree
I almost turned it off because Dhru kept interrupting and not letting the guest speak. But there’s great info
Then shutty....goooo
I'm glad not the only one bothered by Drew's constant interruptions.
What gives, Drew?!???
. Dru you really need to let your guest talk. Your constant summarisation of the conversation is not required.
Dhru, I love your show, but particularly in this episode, you have too many interruptions on your end.
I cut added sugar out & no sugar bought. Using sugar alternatives. It was hard beginning of the year& I didn’t realize “healthy drinks” like vitamin water has SO much added sugar. Now I love buying better food without that crap. Also, I have been trying to go plastic free but it’s soo hard ! Even the bulk produce they have in stores is stored in plastic. I guess I really should go to a true farmer market instead !
I make my own mouthwash that I found on RUclips. In 8 ounces of water I put two teaspoons of baking soda, six teaspoons of xylitol and a few drops of peppermint oil. I carry Pur gum in my purse because it is a xylitol gum and chew it after a coffee or food when I can’t always brush.
Well you shouldn’t need it. 🤷🏽♀️
@@emh8861 look up the effects of xylitol on the gums and teeth. Tons of RUclips videos on it. It reduces cavities and promotes healthier gums because it brings your saliva back to a good ph level after eating or drinking acidic foods.
Xylitol is excellent. Dr Ellie recommends it
Rinsing well with water is always good!!!!
Baking soda isn't for everyone. It can causefuid disbalance very easily in people with hydration issues.
So if all of our illnesses stem from our oral health why aren't the insurance companies taking care of our dental bills better?
Plastic in my mouth, every night, all night. I’m so concerned about my plastic mouthguard. I cannot sleep without a mouthguard but I’m ingesting plastic all night long, every night. Are there other options?
For a minute or two I thought Dhru was the guest… Too many interruptions on his part. The podcaster has to let the guest do the talking!
Great conversation, however I didn't like the fact that you did not let the guest speak! I was waiting for him to talk but that didn't happen! You talked way more than the guest and I have found that so disrespectful.
This is a host who cares about his audience and holds his guests accountable to the truth. Thank you Dhru!
I wish they had discussed oil pulling. Otherwise, useful information.
Me too
Me three!
Me 4
Agree!!!
Hush...would subscribe but not sure I want to hear host interrupt soo much
Dhru, you are talking over a lot over your guest. Please let your guests speak
Hey Dhru, a holistic dentist from Texas say gargle with hydrogen peroxide and baking soda, that will minimize bacteria that causes heart attack and brain stroke. Cut sugar from diet, very simple
Not only sugar, but all refined carbohydrates that turn to sugar straight away in the body.
Also dmso at half strength!
what is dmso?
Salt water gargling, gymnema sylvestra powder
I've used only baking soda and hydrogen peroxide for years and I just had a stroke a week ago from hemorrhage two cracked teeth and thrush from antibiotics I believe
Settle down host. Stop talking over the guest. Stop interrupting . Please!!!
Please let your Guest speak 😅. You interrupt way too much. On a separate note, great content!
Shutty
Message for Dhru : This podcast is great, however, it would be so helpful to have time stamps (as the Huberman lab and Peter Attia do) as it is long and difficult to listen to in one sitting.
How about a transcript.... Great for details and notes!
Dru why don't you let your guest talk ?
I listen to a ton of health podcasts. Never heard any other host hog time as Dru. Rude and irritating, won't be back
This is the second time recently that I've heard about the microbiome in the mouth. I'm guilty of eating too much sugar and when I do I notice that my mouth feels yucky. Even when I eat bread I notice my gums feel irritated. I've been cutting back almost completely. It almost feels like as soon as I eat sugar or carbs I feel it in my whole body right away. It's hard to explain. This video has now terrified me about my teeth. I have sensitivity. I have brushed too hard. I want to keep my teeth!
Yes I also have that feeling about immediate sensation responding to the sugar and carbs crap, so I've been looking for a competent dentist in my area such as a bio dentist, is that what it's called???
xylitol gum (pur brand) and use boka toothpaste for nano hydroxyapatite
What does your dentist say about your gums.... If pink 🩷 Not inflamed, swollen or pull'n away from your teeth... You sound good.... Just get a good water pic to Not be hard on them but flush out debris and bacteria daily to keep gums healthy so they can hold on to your teeth... Far better than mouth wash or often flossing....
Gums are the secret seldom exp'd, Sugar isn't as tough if you're pay'n close attention to your gums.... If you make more plax than usual get em cleaned every 2-4mons... Found that out the hard way.... It's the build that creates the issues.... If Keto can show it deters that it would be huge for plax builders and those that frankly can't always afford dental ins.... That's what we really need access to to Help people be healthier!
Salt water gargling, gymnema sylvestra powder
Your mouth is not separate from your body. Dentists only know about the mouth. If you want to keep your teeth, remove sugar and gluten, take d3+k2, ReMag (magnesium), ReMyte (minerals), Nordic Naturals fish oil, eat sauerkraut, natto, miso, kimchi etc. Also eat pasture-raised eggs, grass-fed meat, avocadoes, cruciferous vegetables, broccoli sprouts, bone broth, hemp seeds, chia seeds, colostrum, spirulina, kelp or seaweed etc. Your gut is EVERYTHING.
But you need to make sure you have high stomach acid to be able to absorb the nutrients. We are what we absorb. Digestive enzymes before meals will also help with nutrient absorption.
Good luck.
Omg Dhru, who is an expert in this discussion - you or the Dr? Could you please let the expert speak next time and interject with good questions. Thank you😊
Thank you for so much information to help us with being advocates for our own mouth health. For the last 25 years, I’ve done everything that Dentist has said to do, probably except for using an electric toothbrush on a regular basis. For some reason I couldn’t get with that program. I’ve had so much tarter over the years that all of my dentists have convinced me to go for cleaning every three months. I have been meticulous with that because I don’t want to lose my teeth. I’ve had gum disease this whole time with no results or very little. Onseeing your video you both of have givin me ideas how to improve my mouth health. I’ve had burning tongue since 2007, and gone to multiple specialists and no one can help me. I think this oral health test can you give me some answers. Thanks to you both.
There’s a FANTASTIC dentist in NYC! Keith Marshall, Gramercy Park. I used him for years. Sadly I live in Ireland 🇮🇪 and have not found a good replacement yet 😢
I don’t understand. Why no mention of xylitol?
What is it???
Why do you have guest when you talk instead of them
What about the use of the water pick, how beneficial is that
VERY, No chemicals or abrasion on the enamel...
Going to a meat based diet completely cured gums, absolutely no “gack” on teeth. My dentist couldn’t believe it.
I believe it. My gums tell me when I eat something I shouldn’t of have . 🤣
Really??
Agreed @@emh8861
Going to all meat based diet gave me colon cancer and the main thing that helped with my cure was going on whole food plant based diet.
@@georgethegurufarah1803It's only a matter of time before the dangers of a 100% plant based diet shows. I have quite a few vegans that I treat for nutritional deficiencies and cancer. Bio-individuality notwithstanding.
Dr Ellie Phillips asserts flossing damages the gums and is not necessary with her proper dental hygiene program….this involves several mouthwashes, closys to normalize acidity, a fluoride toothpaste and special brush to use for teeth and also gum massage, listerine, and ACT a no alcohol fluoride rinse, plus liberal use of xylitol after meals, snacks, or drinks. Many people assert a drop in plaque, tooth sensitivity, no cavities, and regrowth the of receding gums in time, using this system.
So this differs quite a bit from your flossing recommendations, and ‘no fluoride’ stance. Some of the mouthwash has other chemicals in it that I worry about.
Why are these recommendations so divergent??? Very hard to reconcile.
I used her method years ago and my oral health seemed to have improved although I hadn't been to a dentist to see what he thought during that time. I quit doing it for some reason...can't remember why other than maybe just so many products to keep up with. My mouth is a mess now because I grind and nash my teeth in my sleep and have chipped or even fractured some through the root. Dental work is outrageously expensive and insurance covers almost nothing. If oral health is so important it seems that a lot more would be covered in order to avoid other major health problems down the road.
Would have been a great conversation if the interviewee got to speak... Lol
Ok...over 80 people said this...did you think your comment was unique 🙄
Dhru what happened on this podcast man? Maybe you're really passionate about this oral health issue but you were not a good interviewer, let the Dr you are interviewing talk more than you!
Fascinating and informative. Making a big effort with my diet and dental hygiene to hopefully not go the path of both parents.
What about water flossing?
Amazing video, thank you!!
You don’t give your guests enough talk time. You just keep rambling and don’t let them talk
Yes!!! So very frustrating!!!! Would love to hear the guest.
My dentist recommends rinsing on periodide-what are you thoughts? I also started taking `120 mg of COQ 10 for bleeding gums in my 40 after gum surgery. NO MORE GUM BLEEDING for me!
Tired of hearing all of Dru's personal stories & interruptions. I'm going to search this doctor elsewhere
Me too!!!! Poor guest was not allowed to speak.
Big fan of Dhru P. here. Also of Dr B. So many great takeaways. I’ll definitely start introducing Bristle to my dental patients. The root canal dilemma has been underrated for way too long. I do my best to avoid doing them if possible but if a patient’s tooth requires it and is a good candidate (no fractures etc.) I will do it with a Lightwalker Laser. It’s called PIPS ending. This bubbles out much more of the pulp tissues. I won’t refer to a specialist unless they use this technique.
V
.
I'm right handed and my tooth recession is on the right side. I always wondered about gum message. My gums are not red at the tooth margin. You would think gums get quite a workout just by the act of chewing, especially things like apples or nuts. I mouth tape at night, but I've found my heart rate goes up when I use tape. I wear a watch that tells me how I'm sleeping.
Why tape, are you a mouth breather?
56:16 we grew up using salt rinse
Heal'n to the gums and throat a good gargle for sore throats! Especially sea salt!
I haven't been to the dentist since he kept pushing root canals for problems that I didn't feel. Its been a few years. The price was astronomical and I lost trust. Dentists and car mechanics stress me out. This has been very informative and since alzheimers runs in my family I will definitely take more care of my oral health.
Thank goodness for fast forward.
Also, I'm running low carb about 20 to 75 carbs (mostly sweet potato and veggies) a day with good quality protein foods and my performance and muscle gain are great and feel fantastic, blood markers are spot on. People that don't want to give up carbs are addicted, to mostly prossessed carbs! Again dud stop talking so much ! Let your guest speak you constantly talked over him, Very annoying and rude.
wow, this was more helpful than i thought. thank you guys
Excellent topic!!! Thank you for bringing this to us!
2 hrs is too long . good info. just need to condense it .
My mother had all of her teeth removed and replaced with false teeth when she was in her late 20s. She's now 92 and only just beginning to show signs of memory loss.
My mom had perfect beautiful teeth and her dentist removed them at 40 years old because he said she had gum disease. She died in her 70s from kidney failure of type 2 diabetes. The doctors gave her insulin and didn’t talk about diet at all . 🤬😭.
My mom's 89 and has had dentures for well over 50 years. She has little brain glitches here and there, but is very intellectually healthy.
I had a neighbor who had a lot if not all her teeth removed and had dentures. She had some teeth problems but shame on the dentist for doing it. This was before she was even 20!
Still affected by removing her teeth, they affect the brain, eating all kinds of sugar including starches main reason for Alzheimer's. A change in diet can reverse it. Look it up here on RUclips"Reversing Alzheimer's Naturally"
The teeth affects all major organs Brain is one, teeth are part of the head right, and removing them makes much of those problems.
I read elsewhere that it had been a dental fad back around the 50s give or take to pull all the teeth in some 20 year olds particularly rural barely high school diploma people! As a cure for dental problems!
Too many interruptions ❤
What about the plastic in Denture and partials😮
Major Good Q!!!!
Forward head carriage is typical in Parkinson's patients. It causes the tremors The brain stem is comprised so corrective chiropractic realigns the spine and takes the pressure off the brain stem.
Thank you! Do u have any references?
So i heard that you can have a procedure to fix gum recession???? Why leave us feeling doomed 😢😮
I know of a woman in west Africa. She is 120 years of age (certified) with perfect teeth all her life.
Really I don't understand you,talk more than the guest doctor how.?Tr y to ask Questions.
Dhru please let your bloody guests speak
What about the Denture / partial warer! Are we screwed 😮
Dunno, good to have the guy back on those specific issues!
Great info. I really like, and see, the great value in your questions. It's all good.😊
In 1981 I had extremely bad gingivitis and my gums were operated on. I ended up having 4 gum transplants.
Since then I have looked after my gums really well. I learned about effect of mouthwash on the oral microbiom about three months ago and no longer use tooth paste or mouthwash. At 76 I'm a biohacker and look after my gums by spending many minutes a day cleaning my mouth with electric brushes of different kinds, tongue scraping and usingvsoft picks instead of flissing.
sounds great! I am over 50 and been meaning to get the sonic water pik thing/machine. Have u considered it? It seems like the best tool
Look up Dr Ellie Phillips too.
Where did they do the gum transplants on you were they small so they took and what type?
@les9058 it took a few years . They took the graft from the roof of my mouth and placed on my gum. It is hurts on both sides, the mouth roof and the gum.
After a quadrant healed they did the next.
Thank you.
Why have a guest if you talk all the time?
Should someone who got regular dental amalgams decades ago have them changed for the the new neutral variety? And if so, is there more danger in releasing toxic metals by removing them or is it better to leave them?
There are places who supposedly can do this safely..Biologic dentistry.
Chlorella is very effective at pulling heavy metals out of the body.
I had mine removed by a holistic dentist. Look for the smart program
EXCELLENT Q.... How do you know!
This is the first time I’ve heard most of this information, when we gon to the dentist they don’t go over any of this this makes me angry, it’s always after the fact
What a great Podcast. ! Waooo!!! Thanks so much.
Just found out my motherr i lzw used a tongue scraper , till she died at 97 had All but 3 of her teeth @@@
Amazing 🤩
I have been using a water pick with the 4 bristle attachment for dental care for 4 or 5 years. This works must better for me than flossing. I am 73 and still have all my teeth. I think the comments on diet and restricting periods of eating are very relevant. Recently I have heard bad things about tooth paste and its affect on mouth bacteria.
I’m 13-14 minutes in an wondering why they haven’t mentioned the waterpik…. I’ve noticed this everywhere, dentists DON’T seem to promote them. I don’t use mine regularly but what a difference they make! As good or better than teeth cleaning at the dentist!!
I’ll check out toothpastes,
I get mine from a health store.
I also use a”skin tape” fairly often at night
Its almost impossible to get any info bc the host keeps talking iver the guest. Can you be quiet for T least a few moment so we can hear your guest?
If mouthwash is so bad for us, please explain why drinking alcohol is not just as bad - and if so, why are we never advised that drinking alcohol is bad for our oral health? I have asked this on other forums with dental professionals, but have never gotten a reply and would love to hear your thoughts.
Great question! I’ve asked the same thing
I think we have been told alcohol is bad. I have never heard anything positive about alcohol. Even that one drink a day for heart health has been changed and the recommendation is zero alcohol. Alcohol can cause an increase risk of mouth and throat cancers just like tobacco.
@@moewilson4605 Yes, understood. But every time I hear a dental professional talk smack about mouthwash, they never mention consequences from alcohol. You would think that a ton more people drink alcohol than rinse with mouthwash and if they are equally bad, then why not say so?
I asked if it was the alcohol in the mouthwash . 🥂
They never mention sniffing glue either.
You should have had the interview without the Dr...you didn't let him talk
So here are a couple of important questions. Number one, should you brush or do anything to clean your teeth right after you have eaten? Number two how long should you wait between eating and having a snack if you feel you need to have a snack? And number three is drinking water throughout the day bad for the saliva?
Hopefully he does a follow up and asks these questions and others I’ve seen that are very good that we’re not asked.
Does rinsing with baking soda solution provide any benefits for oral health if toothbrush isn’t readily available.
Helps to gargle and rinse several times.... If not brush'n... But don't go long your let'n tarter build up at the gumline...
Good podcast, but L-O-N-G. However as long as it was, several things were never mentioned: Oil pulling, water flossing and glycerin in toothpaste.
So whats the good Doc saying? We shouldn't use toothpaste? What about smelly breath? I use hemp toothpaste and it has really helped the balance of bacteria in my mouth. I'll try the tongue scraping and flossing. Not sure i want to give up on my hemp toothpaste though- hahahaha!. I never use mouthwash, its terrible for the gut microbiome.
You should not have bad breath if you’re healthy. 😎
There's a dentist from the Detroit area on YT who also says toothpaste isn't necessary. That's so weird to me.
Heard somewhere it’s a parasite thing. Bad breath.
Regular toothpaste No! For the fluoride and other stuff that's Not good!
Bake'n sofa is centeries old natural... Add 3% periode and bacteria is gone!
Dhru , 24 minutes into the video. Why are you talking so much?! The guest barely had any chance to talk or even answer your questions! I used to think you are a great host and good listener. And you are giving so many advices. You are not the doctor so let the doctors give advice please.
Yes...he's aggravating 😢
I can't deal with this host. Talking too much@!@@
Yup, I’m annoyed with him as well.
I'm out. I want to hear the guest. Guest can't finish a sentence without host butting in. Bye, bye!!!! 😠 😡
Most of this type intervies are an interplay of a guest and a host. Drhu is a little better than dr. Mark Hyman but both enrich us with wealth of medical practical knowledge.
