Easy Ways to Prolong Your Life

In an article written by Dr. Oz, he explained that there are six easy ways to prolong your life. According to the Healthy Living on Shine article, one of the six ways is to floss! Dr. Oz explains that if you do not floss, bacteria hiding between your teeth will infect your gums, causing gum disease, and even enter your bloodstream. This causes inflammation in your arteries and contributes to plaque buildup on blood vessel walls. As we have written in the past, studies show that there is a link between gum disease and other serious diseases such as respiratory infections and neurodegeneration. For the proper flossing technique, please visit our flossing instructions page. The other five ways to prolong your life were to get up every hour, eat an egg, take chromium, do a self-massage and check your pulse.

Be Sure To Eat Your Yogurt!

According to Prevention online, eating yogurt can help prevent gum disease. The article states that adults who consume 55 grams of yogurt per day have significantly fewer markers of periodontal disease than those who don't include yogurt in their diets. The reason? The lactic acid in yogurt helps protect gums from harmful bacteria that cause the disease.
