It's a family podcast this week! We are excited to introduce you to our Mom and Dad, Dr. Gene & Cindy Sambataro. They have worked together for over 40 years and built an incredible biological dental practice called the Julian Center for Comprehensive Dentistry. They have extensive knowledge on the connection between oral health and whole-body health. In this episode, they share common issues they see such as sleep apnea, gum disease and dental decay, and how dietary and lifestyle choices impact these.We dive into many fascinating topics ranging from the dangers of mouthwash and a vegan diet to tips and tricks for nutrition and oral hygiene. And of course, we get into their top biohacks and motivation behind prioritizing their health every day.SHOW NOTES: 0:51 Welcome to the show!1:31 Welcome our Mom & Dad2:13 Cindy’s Bio2:32 Gene’s Bio3:09 About the Julian Center4:43 Sleep Disordered Breathing 1016:59 Evaluating & Diagnosing Dysfunction8:11 What is the 3D Cone Beam?10:22 Buteyko Nasal Breathing11:54 Snoring denial (even in women)14:53 Upper Airway Resistance 17:30 His #1 Question 18:27 Mouth Taping19:39 Addressing Respiratory Rate22:12 Nasal Breathing & Nitric Oxide23:34 The problems with Mouthwash25:49 Benefits of Oil Pulling29:06 *Thrive Market Ad*31:51 Floss recommendations34:20 Nutrition & Oral Health trends37:40 Weston Price, sugar and tooth decay38:44 All about fluoride42:28 Top nutrition tips46:15 What to do about recurring health issues47:26 Ancestral jaw structures & teeth50:03 Their motivation to be healthy!51:34 Time Efficiency & MED54:30 Biohacking for kids57:02 Mom’s final piece of advice57:35 Dad’s final piece of advice1:00:35 More questions about Holistic Dentistry?01:01:21 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES: The Julian Center for Comprehensive DentistryBook: Stop the SnoreIG: Julian CenterFB: Julian CenterIG: biologicalbiohackingdentistIG: mamasambieCocoFlossDr. Tung’s FlossSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donations
