Quotes of the Day

Edamame is about as whole a soy food as you can get. After all, these are soybeans still in their pods. You can buy them frozen and just throw a handful into some boiling water anytime you want a healthy snack. They cook in about 5 minutes. All you need to do is strain them and, if you're like me, crack lots of fresh pepper onto the pods and nibble the beans right out. (You can also buy them pre-shelled, but then they're not as fun to eat.) [2015] - Michael Greger

A healthy mouth feels clean and comfortable, it has no plaque, no calculus buildup, no recession, and no sign of cavities, bleeding gums, or periodontal problems. A healthy mouth does not need a cleaning, which could potentially scratch or thin the enamel; more importantly, a cleaning may remove the thin layer of healthy protective proteins and the good bacteria that are the foundation of a healthy mouth ecosystem. Your mouth certainly should be professionally evaluated at regular intervals by your dentist, and at these appointments, I encourage patients to inquire if their mouth needs a “cleaning”. If your mouth is unhealthy, a cleaning will remove diseased plaque from around your teeth and gums for a time, and this will temporarily help to limit the amount of damage and inflammation in your gums.  [2018] - Ellie Phillips

An important part of any focusing regimen is to set aside time at the end of the day--just before going to sleep--to acknowledge your successes, review your goals, focus on your successful future, and make specific plans for what you want to accomplish the next day. [2005] - Jack Canfield
