- Turn Off the Fat Genes - A Book Review
[Book-Reviews:Health-Mind-Body] Once in a while a good title comes along and "Turn Off the Fat Genes" is one of those books that just have to be written about.

Imagine if you could have all the knowledge of all of the weight loss experts out there, right now, instantly.
- Weight Loss Starts Within Our Brains
[Health-and-Fitness:Weight-Loss] What is the key to breaking down that barrier? Experience and knowledge is the answer. Study, read up on weight loss, and experiment with what works and what does not work.

[Health-and-Fitness:Weight-Loss] Nearly everyone at some point in their life has wished to weigh less or at the very least be less flabby and more muscle toned.

- Reversible Pulpitis
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] The words hung in the air and the implied meaning struck me like a hammer. There was no way I was going to allow this dentist to make a permanent hole in my tooth and then fill it after hearing the word, 'reversible'. I was going to do a little research first. I feared that what the dentist wanted to do and what was really necessary were two very divergent realities. Turns out that I was right.
- Is Your Dentist Treating You Right?

[Writing-and-Speaking:Writing] Whatever part of the book I was working on, it was never 'finished'. There was always more to add.
- Flamed! What is Flaming and What Can You Do About Being Flamed?

- Marketing Fusion Secrets
[Internet-and-Businesses-Online:Internet-Marketing] Perhaps not all Internet marketers make ALL of their money online. What if they were using offline methods to drive customers to their websites with open wallets?

[News-and-Society:International] The Chinese Communist Party came to power through the barrel of a gun and they remain in power the same way.

- Mutilations in Zimbabwe Reflect the Human Condition
[News-and-Society:Crime] Whenever there are people who are willing to turn to violence to get what they want, you will see other people become the victim of that violence. Some of those will retaliate, if they are able.
- Is Your Dentist Too Busy to Educate You About Gum Disease?
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Let's face it. Dentists are busy people. Very busy. They often have a case load that keeps them working all day long. They don't always have time to tell you everything you should know about your teeth and gums or how to care for them.
- Oral Health - What Happens Next?
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Don't most of us go to the dentist on a regular basis to get our teeth cleaned? Don't most of us brush and floss our teeth every day? How could the percentage of people that have gum disease be so incredibly high?
- Plaque and Gum Disease
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] If you miss the same spots all of the time, then you aren't getting rid of the plaque in that area at all. It is able to facilitate the rapid growth and provide a breeding ground for the harmful bacteria that causes gum disease.
- Long in The Tooth?
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] I sometimes wonder if they are not just echoing each other because no one seems to explain what 'poor oral hygiene' is. If so, what is good oral hygiene?

[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Do you wonder about the health of your gums? Have you ever seen red, puffy or bleeding gums upon brushing or flossing. Have you grown, 'long in the tooth'?
- Why is Gum Disease so Prevalent?
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] With our incredibly busy lifestyles it is virtually impossible to take into account everything that either needs to be done or should be done on a daily basis. Those things that require less immediate action in the present, such as retirement planning and gingivitis tend to receive less attention from us. In addition, gum disease is something that most people don't think about until it becomes obvious that they have it.
- Gum Disease and Plaque
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Gum disease is for all practical purposes a chronic disease. The body has defenses that may be able to slow the progression of gum disease and loss of gum tissue. In about twenty percent of the population, these treatments will do little to change the long term health of the gums.

[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] What kind of risk factors might contribute to the likelihood of periodontitis developing in your mouth? There are several. A side effect to certain medications is to decrease the flow of saliva.
- The CCP Likes to Destroy From Within
[News-and-Society:Pure-Opinion] They like to target those who speak about freedom, human rights or have complaints about how they or a family member have been treated by the government. Let us not forget the Tiananmen Square Massacre of 1989.
- Gum Disease Requires Immediate Action
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] We typically will get motivated when we have an overwhelming drive and multiple deep set reasons to accomplish a goal. If that fundamental base isn't in place, it will be a long uphill battle to get yourself or others to do something that requires sustained effort.
- Gum Disease Alternative
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] It is so very important to understand what this insidious disease can and does do. Don't make the mistake I made. I thought it was normal for my gums to bleed occasionally while brushing or flossing.
- Beware of Gum Disease and Gingivitis
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Today, even lost gum tissue and supporting bone structure can be replaced, but the expense can be rather high. Why let it get that way in the first place? Why risk the loss of a tooth or multiple teeth?
- An Alternative To Root Scaling And Planing Worked For Me
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Recently, I was looking at some 'official' information about gum disease and gingivitis. One of the sites implied that gum disease was the result of poor brushing and flossing habits. I think this is possibly an untrue and potentially dangerous statement to make because it may lead people to believe they will be safe from gum disease if they brush and floss regularly.
- How Did I Get Gum Disease?
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Now that I have been paying attention to the health of people's gums when they speak, I can see red puffy gums in even young twenty-something-year-old people. I have read from a dentist who states that perhaps somewhere between 75% and 95% of people have gum disease.
- Gingivitis and Gum Disease Can Be Prevented
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] As I looked further into the situation, a larger picture began to reveal itself. It became apparent that I was the victim of gum disease, the silent epidemic that stalks most people who don't usually realize it until it is time for a costly and potentially painful treatment and recovery.
- Fighting Gum Disease With the Hydrofloss
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] I was told that I needed a special treatment. They wanted to dig under my gums to get rid of built up tartar and plaque. That sounded both painful and expensive to me. Worse, they wanted to start immediately.
- Gum Disease is Underestimated
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Plaque is a nasty, thin but sticky film that allows anaerobic bacteria to be trapped between itself and the hard surface of your tooth. In this environment, the bacteria can thrive.
- My Gums Are Bleeding - What Should I Do?
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] This brings up an important point. Bleeding gums are not normal at all. Usually, if your gums bleed while brushing or flossing it is probably indicative of gum disease.
- Do You Have Gum Disease?
[Health-and-Fitness:Dental-Care] Most people are woefully unaware that they even have gum disease, that is until the situation becomes critical. So how do you know if you have gum disease?
- Alcoholism Requires Recognition and Treatment
[Health-and-Fitness:Drug-Abuse] In fact, I doubt he could function without a drink. Yet, he was a highly 'functional' alcoholic.
- Addiction from Another Perspective
[Self-Improvement:Addictions] Otherwise, we would simply be robots at the mercy of these addictions that exist to varying degrees. I think most people would agree that is not the case.
- Meditation Versus Addiction
