"Wellness Wednesday": Oral Health & Whole-Body Wellness

Today on Wellness Wednesday , Starkey Sowers from Clark’s Nutrition joined us to highlight the powerful connection between oral health and overall wellness—including your heart health and even longevity.

Poor dental hygiene can lead to low-grade inflammation, which has been linked to serious health issues like cardiovascular disease and age-related muscle loss. The good news? Small daily habits make a big difference.

• Brushing and flossing (yes, flossing!) are non-negotiable.

• Floss picks and natural dental chews are great for kids and adults alike, helping remove plaque between brushes.

• Supplements like folic acid, omega-3s, and CoQ10 support gum health and reduce inflammation.

• Natural oral care products at Clark’s—like EcoDent biodegradable floss, oxygen-rich rinses, ergonomic toothbrushes, and whitening pastes—make dental care more effective and eco-conscious.

Whether you're aiming for a healthier smile or a healthier heart, your mouth is a key part of the equation. Clark’s Nutrition offers a wide range of oral health tools and natural products you won’t typically find in a regular store.
