The Milky Way

Salam..

It has been quite a while since my last post. I have been ill and recently, advised by my doctor to stop consuming coffee and tea. NO coffee and I'm dying without caffeine! So! I have to find an alternative to my lovely coffee which I have been taking since I was 12. LOL Then I start drinking milk a few days ago and, I found it wasn't totally bad at all - tasty! (Oh! I'm talking like I've never taste it.. =P)

So it's a milky way, a journey without coffee. What is good about this milky way is, it's totally good! I'm highlighting the LACTOFERRIN which is an iron-binding protein. In studies carried out, this iron-binding protein was found to have anti-cancer (milk is good against colon cancer particularly), anti-microbial action against some bacteria that cause dental carries (good for your teeth!).

And another six benefits of milk that are well-known:

1. Bone growth and formation (together with with vitamin D)
2. Teeth remineralization
3. Reduce osteoporosis
4. Lower risk of kidney stone
5. Maintain a healthy level of blood pressure
6. Last but not least, DEEP SLEEP... (psychologically)

Just to name a few good things about MILK... and I'm having my sip now.. Nite! =D

The First is The Wake Up Chores

Salam,

I woke up in the morning to found that I forgot to brush my teeth before going to sleep last night.. Euww.. quite nasty, wasn't it? Haha Apologize!

So for the first post, let's talk about tooth brushing. Do you know that the best is, we should brush our teeth after every meal? As we eat, plaque or a transparent layer of bacteria will accumulate, coating the teeth, giving rise to the dark yellow colour of the teeth. Plaque will start to harden in two days. In 10 days, the plaque will accumulate to become dental calculus (a.k.a tartar.. not tartar sauce though.. =P). This dental calculus is hard to remove it will cause a lot of worrisome dental caries. After all, why not brushing?? LOL Okay, how to brush our teeth? It is a simple question, might doesn't cross your mind at all. Huhu..

The first of all, we should choose the best type of toothbrush to protect our  soft tissue for damaging. Many dental professionals prefer the soft-bristled toothbrush and make sure the toothbrush can reach all the teeth (it's about choosing the right size for your mouth too).

The toothpaste! For adult, use the toothpaste that contains fluoride. If you have sensitive teeth, your can use special toothpaste that has potassium nitrate since potassium nitrate can reduce the discomforts. I prefer to use Sensodyne Rapid Relief (promoting Sensodyne... LOL)! It does help even it might be a bit costly but why  not if it works?

Okay, the tips for brushing! Actually a proper brushing only takes about two three minutes. So, cheer up! =D



Smile baby!
