Spa Day for Your Mouth (say good-bye to dry mouth!) - Dr. Rajiv Saini, Chief Science Officer of H2Ocean, joins us to discuss the benefits of Red Sea Salt
🦷 Do you experience dry mouth or that awful metallic taste? Want to know a great way to soothe mouth sores and help them heal quickly? Dr. Rajiv Saini has your answer!
Welcome to the "Everything Cancer" podcast. Today, we're delving into the vital topic of mouth care with Dr. Rajiv Saini, Chief Science Officer at H2Ocean.
Dr. Saini discusses why good, gentle oral health is crucial during cancer treatment and survivorship.
Rajiv explains how chemotherapy and radiation can make the mouth sensitive and prone to sores and infections. He emphasizes the need for gentle, effective oral care routines.
Dry mouth can occur for any number of reasons. It can persist for months or even years after radiation and some chemotherapy treatments. H2Ocean’s Healing Sea Salt Rinse can help alleviate that sensation for several hours. Jill describes H2Ocean as a “Spa Day for your mouth.”
Rajiv explains the science behind H2Ocean's patented formula, containing Red Sea salt, lysozyme, and xylitol, and its benefits in maintaining a healthy oral microbiome. Rajiv shares his passion for the product and H2Ocean's commitment to supporting cancer communities by donating mouthwash to cancer care organizations.
Rajiv is also a dentist, periodontist, Harvard-trained in Healthcare Operations, and a participant in oral care research and development in multiple settings.
Tune in to learn how a spa day for your mouth can enhance your well-being, whether you're in treatment or focusing on daily care.
