There is a lingering societal belief that interest rates have to go up, but the reality is that they will stay low for a very long time. Interest rates will be kept low so long as debt levels remain historically high. Even when interest rates aren't historically low, it is almost always a good idea to borrow to invest. [2017] - Calum Ross

A company called Oral DNA has a test called MyPerioPath®, which measures the levels of periodontal bacteria in your saliva. This can alert you if harmful periodontal pathogens are at an unhealthy level, indicating the probability that they are breeding in gum pockets around your teeth. I suggest everyone takes a salivary mouth test for periodontal pathogens along with an oral cancer screening, at least every couple of years. If you have active gum disease, I believe you should consider testing immediately and then monitor your oral health until it is satisfactory and remains stable. [2018] - Ellie Phillips

Food Labels - Total fat: "low fat" means 3 grams of fat or less per serving. Something with 5 grams of fat per serving is pretty close to low fat. Saturated fat and trans fats: These should be limited as much as possible in your diet so ideally these two numbers should be zero. Any amount of trans fat is considered unhealthy. "Low saturated" means no more than 1 gram of saturated fat per serving. Avoid foods with "shortening," "hydrogenated," or "partially hydrogenated" fat listed as an ingredient. Cholesterol: "Low cholesterol" means no more than 20 milligrams per serving and should be limited to 300 milligrams per day. Sodium: "Low sodium" means less than 140 milligrams per serving and should be limited to 2,400 milligrams per day. Dietary fiber: A "high-fiber" food means there are 5 grams or more per serving. A food that is considered a "good source" of fiber has 2.5 grams to 4.9 grams per serving. Sugar: A reasonable number to aim for is around 8 grams of sugar or less per serving. [2013] - Hillary Wright
