How to Brush Teeth Right 2007-03-02 19:02:12 Maybe everybody can say: «Of course, I know how to brush my teeth!» But why so many people do it not right? Let’s start from beginning…
When Should We Start Brush
ing Teeth?
Brushing your teeth should begin at an early age, around 24 months, or as directed by child’s physician. Children will need help brushing their teeth until they are around the age of 7 to 8. Even before child actually has teeth, it is important to perform mouth care.
Using a damp washcloth or piece of gauze, gently rub it over infant’s gums to help clean the mouth. A soft toothbrush, wet with water, may be used after infant has developed some teeth. It is advised to consult child’s dentist regarding the appropriate time for toddler to begin using toothpaste. Only a very small amount of toothpaste should be used because children will often swallow the toothpaste, instead of spitting it out.

Protecting Teeth with Help of Diet 2007-03-01 23:16:23
In addition to brushing and flossing, a healthful diet protects teeth from decay and keeps the gums healthy. Read on to discover how to keep your smile safe and strong.Tooth decay (cavities and dental caries) and gum disease are caused by colonies of bacteria that constantly coat the teeth with a sticky film called plaque. If plaque is not brushed away, these bacteria break down the sugars and starches in foods to produce acids that wear away the tooth enamel. The plaque also hardens into tartar, which can lead to gum inflammation, or gingivitis.
A well-balanced diet provides the minerals, vitamins, and other nutrients essential for healthy teeth and gums. Fluoride, occurring naturally in foods and water, or added to the water supply, can be a powerful tool in fighting decay. It can reduce the rate of cavities by as much as 60 percent.

Extremely Health: Foods that Kill People 2007-03-03 07:32:47 What makes a food really bad? In the edibles department, a food gets the seal of disapproval if it does more harm than good – that is, if it supplies calories but little else, and also contains heart-disease-promoting substances like saturated and trans fats.

Manufacturers hydrogenate oil to make it solid and literally twist the molecule into a form that wreaks havoc in the body.
Dietitians compose various lists of dishes and foods, destructive to health. Following are five foods to avoid or save for very special occasions because of the damage they inflict in calories, unhealthy fats and sodium – plus some healthy and tasty substitutes that offer savings in calories and fat.
