CHRONISCHE KLACHTEN? KIJK EENS NAAR JE GEBIT | Maartje Brands | Vibestalk

"75% of the toxic load in the body comes from the mouth." What if the cause of your chronic complaints lies in your teeth? And what if no one has ever asked you that question? In this episode, Tim Douwsma speaks with Maartje Brands, a biological dentist and founder of Instituut Marie in Amsterdam. Maartje has been working from an integral perspective for over 12 years: the mouth is not an island. Everything that happens inside affects the rest of the body. She takes you into a world that most people do not know. Topics covered include: How a root canal treatment leaves behind low-grade inflammation that continuously activates the immune system How meridians from Chinese medicine establish connections between specific teeth and organs such as the lungs or the large intestine Why metal fillings and braces cause a chemical reaction that enters the bloodstream directly What mouth breathing does to your nervous system Maartje also introduces the "bucket." This is an intuitive model for how stressors accumulate in the body. Emotional stress, physical trauma, chemical exposure. Dental procedures make up a large part of that final layer. When the bucket overflows, illness sets in. The mouth is often the missing piece of the puzzle. She shares her own story. Years of undiagnosed symptoms, seven years of hospital examinations, and ultimately healing through acupuncture. That experience made her the dentist she is today. __________ Vibestalk is a show by Univibes.
