Quotes of the Day

When you consume xylitol as mints or gum, they pull some saliva into your mouth from small salivary glands in the roof of your mouth. In most mouths, this saliva is mineral-rich and alkaline, which is conducive to tooth health and repair. Drinking xylitol water can be useful, but it cannot contribute to remineralization and the reversal of cavities in the same way as is achieved by regularly eating some mints or gum. Xylitol mints or gum will also help people with dry mouth by creating a flow of saliva, and studies have shown that using xylitol mints daily can reduce the amount of root decay in high-risk patients by 40%. [2018] - Ellie Phillips

Many retirees don't have work-related pensions and it makes sense that they should "pensionize" some of their savings by creating a guaranteed monthly income, i.e. annuities. Deal only with the top-rated companies--annuities are no good if the insurance company dies before you do! Also, even though I think annuities are underutilized, don't go overboard here. Annuities are appropriate for a percentage, not all, of retirement portfolios. [2011] - David Chilton
