Sunday, November 1, 2026
In this special Halloween edition of Dr. Health Radio, host David Snow welcomes oral health expert Nathan Jones to discuss the critical link between oral hygiene and overall health. They tackle the recent media controversy surrounding a Cleveland Clinic study on xylitol, clarifying the difference between endogenous xylitol and dietary use, and highlighting decades of safety data.
Nathan explains how xylitol fights tooth decay, suppresses harmful oral bacteria, supports heart and cognitive health, and how Xlear nasal sprays help reduce viral and bacterial adhesion—especially useful during cold and flu season. Practical advice for Halloween candy, daily oral and nasal hygiene, and the systemic dangers of untreated gum disease round out this informative episode.
