Dr. Strand is a Naturopathic Doctor and the Director of Clinical Education and Research at Biocidin Botanicals, bringing over a decade of primary care experience specializing in GI disorders, Lyme disease, and autoimmune conditions. The discussion defines biofilms as an "invisibility cloak" that protects microorganisms from the immune system, leading to chronic inflammation and toxicity when pathogenic bacteria translocate from the mouth to the gut. Dr. Strand outlines a clinical approach that focuses on restoring balance rather than "wiping out" the microbiome, recommending a "low and slow" titration of Biocidin liquid to disrupt biofilms within a standard 5R protocol without causing significant die-off reactions. Finally, the group previews a new study examining Biocidin\u2019s ability to reduce oral biofilms in healthy subjects, underscoring the vital link between oral hygiene and systemic health.   For access to episode resources, click HERE.
