The mouth is connected to the digestive tract. When there are pathogenic bacteria in the mouth, they go straight to the large intestine and small intestine through the digestive tract. When the gut environment is damaged and gut bacteria are out of balance, it can easily cause many unpleasant physical symptoms, such as impaired metabolic function and difficulty losing weight and accumulating visceral fat.
Diseasing bacteria in the mouth are introduced into the intestines along with saliva and food, thereby destroying the balanced environment in the intestines, leading to constipation and reduced metabolic function.
