If you're going to bleach your teeth, understand what you're doing and evaluate the risks. During bleaching you can upset or kill the nerve of a tooth, which could potentially require a root-canal treatment or even an extraction. Everyone who bleaches their teeth will damage their enamel to some extent. Bleaching decreases the hardness of the teeth, demineralizing and weakening them. [2025] - Ellie Phillips

You should at least check your bone density (technically, bone mineral density or BMD) every few years. When we detect low or rapidly declining BMD in a middle-aged person, we use the following four strategies: 1. Optimize nutrition, focusing on protein and total energy needs. 2. Heavy loading-bearing activity. Strength training, especially with heavy weights, stimulates the growth of bones-more than impact sports such as running (though running is better than swimming/cycling). 3. HRT, if indicated. 4. Drugs to increase BMD, if indicated. Ideally, we can solve the problem with the first two, but are not afraid to use the second two methods where appropriate. [2023] - Peter Attia

Buying one house wont' make you wealthy, but buying one or two a year, year after year, will. Wealth is not the standard of living you enjoy; it's your ability to sustain that standard of living if you suddenly can't earn income. Wealth is an income stream. [2004] - Mike Summey
