The Connection Between Gum Disease, Mercury and Alzheimer’s

 

Are you ready to get your mind blown when it comes to your understanding of the brain’s role in whole-body health?

Here’s an interview with Dr. Brandon Brock, a functional neurologist who is hands down the most knowledgeable person in medicine that we have ever had the honor of meeting.

In this short, 10-minute interview that we filmed while in Dallas, TX, Dr. Brock and I explore the connection between the microbes (aka ‘thug bugs’) that are implicated with gum disease and degenerative brain disorders like Alzheimer’s disease.

We also discuss how mercury is particularly damaging to brain tissue and how it can even trigger autoimmune disease.

Below are some interview highlights.
