Description
Infections can hide in reservoirs and cause symptoms far from where they live. Research shows mouth infections can raise A1C, H. pylori can cause iron deficiency and low platelets, staph in the gut can cause skin boils, and E. coli in the gut can cause recurring UTIs. Infections above the collar can travel into the body and contribute to systemic disease. Contact the office if you'd like support.
Research: "Treatment of periodontitis for glycaemic control in people with diabetes mellitus" (Cochrane review) and "Decolonization to Reduce Postdischarge Infection Risk among MRSA Carriers" (CLEAR trial, NEJM 2019)
