The latest cell phone or a good dentist? Martín Demichelis’ unexpected advice to players in full press conference

Martin Demichelis spoke at a press conference on the eve of what River’s return will be Monumental. In one week he had such a big dilemma though Daniel Walkway Whether or not he will participate in the tribute the club will pay to the world champions, the coach offered his take on the matter.

“It seems to me that I have to concentrate 100% on everything that is my responsibility to better prepare for the match. Concentrate 100% so that the team from minute 1 to minute 93 plays well. The only protagonists are the players, the protagonist is not me, nor anyone else”, was Demichelis’s response to avoid the question and remain free from controversy.

However, and beyond the Passarella theme, Micho He left a reflection that caused a stir on social media. It turns out that the former coach of Bayern Munich’s training divisions has made a public call for the institute’s youth players and their representatives.

“Here I see, honestly I haven’t done it, but if I ask the guys in the reserve, the fourth or the fifth if they have a rep, they’ll say yes, that they all have a rep. Surely they ask the reps for a better phone, the best ankle boots… and I won’t go any further. I would advise the guys, I will tell them in person and I am sorry to make it so public, that they ask their representatives to solve their oral problems,” she said.

“There are huge problems from this point of view, there are many injuries. That they ask the representative, like the nutritionist, to go to the dentist, ”she concluded.

The importance of oral care in athletes

Unknown to many and perhaps alerted by Demichelis, poor dental care can cause physical problems in athletes. As? Several dental studies have shown that the possibility of having muscle problems increases if there is tooth decay. The reason is that these bacteria can travel through the body through the blood and reach the muscles. Consequently, they can generate the loss of muscle mass and, consequently, some muscle injuries.

There are several factors why athletes are more prone to tooth decay if they don’t have the necessary treatment. First of all, and like all people, bad brushing and regular checkups increase the chances of oral problems. Then, consumption of isotonic drinks -with high level of minerals and acids- and energy bars They also do not help dental health. Finally, dryness of the oral cavitya product of breathing through the mouth – a fact that is produced by fatigue – makes the appearance of caries more propitious.

For this reason, and with the relevant information, Martín Demichelis’ request makes more sense. His research is to reduce the risk margins against injuries and therefore be able to enhance the young values ​​of the club both physically and technically. He attests to a sentence in the press conference. “We have a talent in Argentine boys that you don’t believe it, you fall in love”although he clarified: “It is clear that not everyone can get and more in an institution like the River”.
