EP 53: The Strength of the Invisible: How rebalancing the oral microbiome can help dental and systemic health in dogs and cats with Dr. Emily Stein
Naturally Healthy Pets PodcastShow Notes
Dr. Emily Stein joins Dr. Judy in discussing the importance of the oral microbiome health in dogs and cats, emphasizing that a diverse microbiome is ideal, but often diminishes due to diet and antibiotic exposure. By age three, many pets have gum disease pathogens, with some having 60% of their oral cavities affected. Chlorhexidine-based dental products worsen this issue. Learn the links between oral health and systemic diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline. Dr. Emily also shares why she developed TEEF, a nutritional supplement that helps rebalance the oral microbiome by attracting and blocking harmful bacteria, improving dental and therefore overall health.
