About this episode:


The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Dr. Jeremy Chatfield, DDS of Northwest Natural Dentistry, for a fascinating deep dive into one of the most overlooked foundations of detox and overall health: sleep.


Dr. Chatfield (a/k/a The Sleep Dentist) explains why activating the brain for peak detoxification begins with high-quality sleep—and how hidden sleep-breathing disorders can quietly push the body into a constant fight-or-flight state. Together, Ann Louise and Dr. Chatfield unpack the surprising role of tongue ties (a major yet often missed cause of sleep apnea and snoring), why nasal breathing is essential for brain and body repair, and how airway dysfunction can ripple into everything from fatigue to inflammation.


Listeners will learn how modern solutions like orthodontics, laser therapy, and myofunctional exercises can restore proper breathing—and why nutrition plays a pivotal role in calming airway irritation. Ann Louise also highlights her go-to natural antihistamine, Luteolin, which outperforms many over-the-counter options without the unwanted side effects.


If you’ve been struggling with poor sleep, snoring, mouth breathing, or unexplained fatigue, this episode offers practical, actionable insights you won’t want to miss.
