10 Influencers on Your Mental Health

Mental health conditions may be influenced by dietary factors.

The body of evidence linking diet and mental health is growing at a rapid pace.

Bad Breath and Your Sexual Appeal. How it Speaks to You?

Theo James and Shailene Woodley will be back together for "Allegiant Part I" next year and we kind of have some incite as to why they both have major chemistry: Woodley doesn't have bad breath.

In a recent interview with German magazine Joy, the 29-year-old "Divergent" actor talked about his dating likes and dislikes. He revealed that "bad breath" is what turns him off the most.



James also said that he has "a thing for pretty legs."

"But most importantly, I like confident women. It's probably because I grew up with four strong women - my mother, grandmother and two sisters," James said.

Over Bleaching Harms Your Teeth And Gums

Bad Breath it's not Just Embarrassing

Bad breath can be a sign of physical illness, doctor says

While bad breath can indicate poor dental hygiene, it can also indicate physical illness, an ear, nose and throat doctor said yesterday.

Liu Po-jen (劉博仁), director of Cheng Ching Hospital’s Otorhinolaryngology Department, said a 20-year-old woman recently visited him, but refused to speak when he asked her what brought her to the hospital. Instead, she gave him a note that read: “I have bad breath.”

“The young woman later confided that the embarrassing problem had deterred her from having a boyfriend, worrying that men might be repelled by her breath,” Liu said.

After a thorough examination, Liu said he was able to identify an inflamed right tonsil and tonsil stones as the source of her halitosis.

“The crypt of the patient’s right tonsil was rather deep, making it more likely for food debris to accumulate in it and for her to develop tonsil stones, one of the conditions that can cause bad breath,” Liu said.

The woman later had her right tonsil removed to put a permanent end to the problem.

Simple Way Enjoyed Beautiful Smile Naturally

Avoid artificial energy drinks. 

Have you bought into the hype about using energy drinks to supercharge workouts? Many aspiring athletes and their families have purchased large quantities of high sugar beverages believing that they would help recovery and performance. Don’t be fooled. Dentists are noticing a significant rise in dental caries due to sports drinks. Dr. Ken Madison and his experienced team  advise you to drink water instead.

Passionate athletes want to excel at their sport of choice. Young athletes face many pressures to succeed. Parents, coaches, friends, and family all expect consistent results. A sports drink seems like a harmless way to perk up before, during, or after games. With a tasty mix of caffeine and sugars, sports drinks are trendy and effective. However, there is a dark side. Many dentists have sounded the alarm, as more and more athletic teens visit dental offices with advanced dental decay. Children and teenagers are exposed to high levels of sugar, which is supercharging the carcinogenic bacteria in their mouths.
