Gateway to Health:
Ayurveda & the Oral Microbiome

The health of your mouth is key for the overall health of the body.

Your oral microbiome, the collective genome of microorganisms that reside in the mouth, is the second largest microbial community in the human body.

Scientific research has shown that the health of your oral microbiome has far reaching implications for the health of major organ systems including the lungs, heart, brain, and gut.

This course provides an in-depth examination of the science of the oral microbiome and a presentation of Ayurvedic perspectives and practices for maintaining the health of the oral microbiome and gut.
