Keeping tabs on your oral health is critical
for warding off bad breath and poor health. It
is important to brush at least twice a day, floss,
eat a healthy diet, replace your toothbrush
every three to four months, and avoid tobacco
use to maintain a healthy mouth. Visiting your
dentist for regular cleanings can also ensure
that oral hygiene is at its best.

Heart Health
We are all aware that it is important to eat
healthy and stay fit for heart health. A diet
rich in plant foods and low in processed food
and animal products lends itself to a happy
heart. Paired with cardiovascular exercise,
you’ve got it made for a healthy body. But
have you ever thought of staying positive as
a way to keep your heart healthy? A research
study at the University of Illinois shows that
people with optimistic attitudes have higher
odds of having ideal cardiovascular health
when compared to pessimistic people. The
study analyzed “the mental health, levels of
optimism, and physical health of 5,100 adults
ranging from 45 to 84 years of age. Heart
health scores—based on American Heart
Association-approved metrics, including
blood pressure and body mass index—
increased right alongside optimism levels.”
So when you’re feeling down, remember that
staying positive affects more than just your
day, so keep your head up and your heart
happy.
