In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Dr. Marc DiNola about holistic dentistry and mercury fillings. We are always trying to find new ways to help people who are not willing to go plant-based yet or are already plant based, but still having health issues. We are thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Marc who unpacks what it means to be a holistic dentist and how the mercury in the fillings affects the body while it’s in and sometimes when it comes out.  Dr. Marc is the founder of The Dental Wellness Center, which is not your typical dental practice. It’s very common for people to suffer from chronic neck, shoulder pain, headaches and insomnia and Dr. Marc has devoted his life to helping people whose oral conditions are affecting their whole health. He has been practicing since 1993 (over 25 years) and licensed by the Dental Board of Maryland. Marc is also a member of several dental associations, including the American Dental Association, Holistic Dental Association, and International Academy of Oral Medicine & Toxicology.
