Xylitol does not dissolve in cold water, but it dissolves easily at room temperature, and once dissolved, it will stay dissolved, even when chilled. Adding xylitol to water may be helpful when higher doses of xylitol are used, as they are in Europe for women with osteoporosis. Doctors who believe in xylitol for bone benefits often suggest an amount of up to 20 grams of xylitol daily. Teeth benefit most from tiny, multiple exposures to xylitol each day—ideally 1–2 grams at each exposure to total between 6.5 and 10 total grams per day. I suggest you strive for a 1-gram serving of xylitol (ideally as two 0.5-gram mints or a 1-gram piece of gum) five times each day after meals, snacks, and drinks. [2018] - Ellie Phillips

Don’t obsess about counting calories—get your diet right, and your protein appetite will manage the calories for you. Accompany the high-protein foods with lots of vegetables and fruits, beans, and whole grains, which will contain good carbs and fats. That way you will also satisfy your appetites for all three macronutrients at the same time. Try adjusting up and down until you feel in control of your appetites—hungry by mealtimes and satisfied after and between meals. [2020] - David Raubenheimer

Your username is not a numerology report, so stay away from numbers. Combining hobbies or words on the same topic is an easy way to stand out from the crowd. For example, if you love travel, you might go with something like GlobalTrek or OutdoorVentures. [2013] - Laurie Davis
