It’s been two weeks since I’m working from morning to night on the song title … Also, I thought I had a mouth inflammation, but it is my wisdom teeth … It really hurts, I went to see a dentist, of course, I knew I hadto remove wisdom teeth. “We must gently remove dirt” and “do not make a fuss ㄴ ㄴ taking these medicines for about three days, then come back”

[rabid-orannge]

Calmford inhabitants (part one of ??)

reusing their artfight thumbnails bc i don't have anything else to put here

Flanelle (co-protagonist with Dots)

A kind, smart and quiet mime boy, born in a family of a french mime and a redhead canadian clown.

Flanelle is an excellent cook, and he likes strawberries more than anything: strawberry ice cream, strawberry jam, chocolate with strawberries… But his absolute favorite is whole strawberries with whipped cream - yum!

He gets his red hair and friendly smile from his mother, and from his father he gets his outstanding flexibility and an ability to create and use invisible objects. All mimes can do that, and Flanelle is no exception! The only problem is, he also inherited his father's frailty…

Dots (co-protagonist with Flanelle)

A peppy, optimistic and energetic chatterbox, tracing her roots back to Шут Гороховый himself, she was born in a family of an aerial gymnast and a ciircus clown from USSR.

Dots absolutely loves catching butterflies and bugs. Her favorite type of butterflies are the ones with eyes on their wings, she admires them to no end. Don't worry, she always sets them free once she's done looking at them.

She inherited her mother's agility, strength and sturdy bones, and her father's contagious laugh and a good sense of humour. All and any scratches and bruises she ever gets heal very fast, and she also can lift up to 100 kilograms! Her uncle was a great circus strongsman, after all.

Gears (resident mechanic and inventor)

A talented but a bit absent-minded handyboy. He was found among some scrap metal by scrap yard workers as a baby. Nobody knows who his parents are, but there are theories that he's a fae child.

Gears can tinker with machinery for hours, sometimes forgetting that he has to eat and sleep. If you bring him any broken mechanism he messed around with in the past, rest assured he will fix it in no time!

Despite his possibly fae origins, Gears is not repelled by cold iron. Even more, he's attracted to it like a magnet. But, despite being a great handyman, he just cannot cook anything to save his life: his cooking turns out tasting bad or just otright inedible. Good thing that he has friends!

Vivienne has a crush on him, but he's too busy tinkering with scrap metal to even notice.

Vivienne (little witchy herb specialist)

A young but very talented witch, Ugorim's beloved granddaughter. She made herself a cozy spot in their house attic, where she does her witch things.

Even though Vivienne is talented, she is still young and inexperienced, so some of her magic is done on accident. One should't look her straight in the eyes, or else she might unintentionally hex you. This is why she wears her hat in such a way it obscures half her face, to prevent accidentally hexing someone.

It's no secret that Vivienne is one quarter fairy on her mom's side. Maybe it's the reason she and Gears get along so well. Vivienne genuinely admires him, even though outside of his field of technology and invention he's mediocre at best. She is a hopeless romantic with a crush, but Gears is too oblivious to even take a hint.

Doctor Pellet (the all-around doctor)

A bit cranky, but very kind and caring metamorphic doctor. He never knew his parents, but loved the people who raised him very much. He's deathly afraid of apples.

Pellet can take on any form, but prefers being a tall blonde man. The only thing he cannot change is his eyes, so he wears glasses - he sees better, and the other people are spared from the many eyed look.

Pellet was raised by a married couple of doctors, so he's been fascinated by medicine and biology since his childhood. He knows a lot about different illnesses and their treatments, and he also keeps a collection of pickled small animals. Don't worry, all exhibits died of natural causes like old age or a disease.

Nova (catman tooth fairy)

An optimistic and a bit air-headed tooth fairy, a dentist by title. He was born and raised in a family of tooth fairies like him, all hereditary dentists (except his uncle, who went to become a hockey player). He's ridiculously afraid of cucumbers and vacuum cleaners.

Nova is like a mix of a bumblebee and a fat cat: bold, gluttonous, lazy, according to all laws of aerodynamics should't fly but flies anyway. Just like any fairy, he has wings, but he rarely uses them - too lazy.

Like any self-respecting tooth fairy, Nova keeps a collection of teeth: baby teeth given to him by kids, teeth knocked out in fights and accidents that he couldn't put back in his clients' mouths, extracted teeth with cavities, etc. But the special place in his hoard is held by wisdom teeth; he jokes that his power grows and strenghtens with every new addition.

Trufelle (the short confectioneer)

A gorgeous confectioneer, a loving wife and a great woman to be around. She is married to Bisquit and keeps a joint bakery and candy shop with him.

Trufelle might be short, but she is very kind and outgoing. She knows every Calmford's residents' preferences in sweets by heart.

When making cakes, Trufelle is the one who makes the creme and decorates, and she knows plenty of sweet recipes, including caramel, chocolate and ice cream.

Biscuit (the soft baker)

A great baker, a loving husband and a very kind man in general. He's married to Trufelle and keeps a joint bakery and candy store with her.

Biscuit is built like a closet: tall, wide-shouldered and angular, but it doesn't stop him from being soft and sweet like a freshly baked bun.

He often helps his wife make cakes, baking the layers for them while she makes the creme, frosting and cake decorations. His baking is unmatched, and his bread is always tasty, soft and light.

☕️ SINKING SHIPS ☙ Saturday, January 20, 2024 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠

Jessica Funk

PLEASE BRING AWARENESS TO THIS MAJOR LAWSUIT! I am grateful for your diligent work to keep us informed on many topics. It is especially interesting to be kept up to date on the many lawsuits, in courts currently, that have a huge impact on our freedoms.

There is one major suit you are missing and likely because the media, the government and the American Dental Association have worked extremely hard to squash any discussion on the topic. At the end of this month, a court in San Francisco will be covering a 9 day trial on the harms of water fluoridation. This is a controversial topic that spans decades and much like the anti-vaxxers have been attacked as tin foil hat wearing individuals, people on the side of concern about fluoride consumption have been equally maligned and the research suppressed.

As a dentist, I have been indoctrinated to believe that fluoride is the 'savior' of our profession. Any thoughts to the contrary were considered conspiracy. When COVID awoke me to the lies of the medical establishment, I became concerned that parallel lies existed in my profession. Researching the history of water fluoridation is eerily similar to the efforts to promote vaccination. Fluoride is to dentistry what vaccines are to medicine.

One might think that all dentists should be opposed to fluoride...it would certainly generate more business for the industry. But, fluoride treatments and fluoride products are income generating elements of dental practices. Much like vaccines are to pediatric medical offices. And much like vaccines, there is benefit to reducing tooth decay from fluoride but the systemic impact of consumption over a lifetime has consequences for the bones, the kidneys, the thyroid and pineal gland, likely intestinal (leaky gut) and the most harmful, the neurotoxic effects to the brain.

Most of the world does not fluoridate and has seen reductions in tooth decay that parallel what's been seen in this country since the introduction of water fluoridation. The CDC quietly changed its position in the late 90s to admit that topical application of fluoride is the primary method of benefit. I would argue that the sublingual absorption of toothpaste fluoride but that's a topic for another day.

The neurotoxic effects are what is on trial. Unlike vaccines, most people are unable to avoid water fluoridation. Nearly 80% of Americans drink fluoridated water and very few understand that the chemical used to fluoridate our water is the toxic waste of the phosphorus rock and aluminum industries. One can get an exemption from vaccination but the cost to filter fluoride from our water makes this exposure a forced medical treatment.

Please, please...bring awareness to this topic. As I talk to people in my awake medical circles, VERY few are aware of this trial and the impact it can have on our health....and our freedom to choose.

Feature Project: Red Rock Dental

New Build

Welcome to Red Rock Dental, a modern, professional dental health clinic and retail space!

Completed in early 2023, the Red Rock project is another of our Medicine Hat construction projects, and consisted of base building commercial construction – completed in August of 2022 – and were immediately retained to complete the tenant improvements directly after.

During all phases of this project, we leveraged our efficient design-build/construction management approach. Our professional team maintained close collaboration with the owner as well as specialized equipment suppliers.

The outcome? A cutting-edge retail space at Red Rock Dental – a marriage of modern aesthetics with state-of-the-art equipment.

Project Details

Project Type: New Construction Sector: Commercial Location: Medicine Hat, Alberta Timeline: Completed in January 2023 Project Size: 5,418 sq.ft. Budget: $2 Million Project Scope: Site work, base building construction, and tenant improvements

The Red Rock Dental ownership team enjoyed our seamless design build/construction management project delivery method – which essentially means that we’re there from project inception to completion, and handle all of the details. We worked very closely with the owner and their specialized equipment suppliers for a seamless construction experience.

Red Rock Dental is a very modern, professional retail space that features state of the art equipment. With a functional floor plan designed to maximize efficiency and optimize staff and patient experience – we wanted to ensure total versatility and room for future expansion.

As an additional pleasant bonus, dental chair locations are strategically placed to take advantage of the abundant natural light created by vast glazing along the entire South and East sides of the building. This only improves patient experience during an otherwise occasionally anxiety-inducing dentist visit!

How SWMW Approaches Challenges

As general contractors in Medicine Hat, we’ve established great relationships with our clients. That is, in no small part, due to our ability to view challenges as opportunities to show our expertise and deliver a great client experience!

There were a great deal of under slab rough-ins required for all of the drains, power, water, and other lines that ran to the chairs and other locations throughout the building. This required a high degree of planning, scheduling, and organization in the early construction phases.

Red Rock Dental’s Move-In Date

Red Rock Dental had a specific timeline to meet to ensure a seamless grand opening!

To ensure we met this goal, we had to rely on the equipment deliveries from the client’s specialized equipment suppliers – and time them with our own construction sequencing – not always easy!

However, having a well-organized, strategic work plan and schedule was instrumental in meeting these requirements. Our team fully realizes the importance of working with all major stakeholders to ensure a successful outcome for our client.

Our knowledge of certain long lead order items helped to ensure that we placed orders very early in the process so that delivery would not affect the schedule in any way.

Many of the owner’s specialized equipment suppliers were USA based, so we needed to coordinate with the suppliers to ensure that their delivery timeframes would not affect our construction timeline.

Connect With Southwest And Midwest Design & Construction

Despite facing these obstacles, this was another successful project. We are very proud of our team’s collaborative efforts, again ensuring total client satisfaction by completing the project on time and on budget!

Want to learn more about how we can help with your next design and construction project? Contact one of our team members at SWMW with our convenient online quote request tool. A member of our team will be in touch to discuss project details and next steps.

Alternative Career Path

After speaking with actives Johnny Thai and Brandon Pham, I’m seriously considering making the switch to a career in dentistry. Some of the selling points that each of them brought up were the work-life balance and the ability to change lives in a similar way to medicine but not have to be close to death. There’s also the business aspect to dentistry and the ability to be your own boss. Johnny mentioned that he could work two days a week if he wanted to.

For schooling, aspiring dentists must complete their bachelor’s degree, pass the Dental Admissions Test, complete dental school training, pass licensure exams, and (optionally) pursue a specialty. It’s important to maintain a 3.5 GPA and shadow dentists for 100 hours during your undergraduate years. For course prerequisites, they are mostly the same as those for pre-med students: three quarters of biology with lab,, three quarters of general general chemistry with lab, three quarters of organic chemistry with lab, and three quarters of physics with lab. Additionally, I’ll need English composition, anatomy and physiology, microbiology, and biochemistry. Schools also encourage enrolling in arts and social science courses.

According to University HQ, dentists need the following skills: dexterity, physical stamina, patience, leadership, organization, communication, and detail-orientedness. 

As an owner of a private practice, dentists are given a lot of autonomy but it comes with the baggage of running a successful business. There’s uncapped earning potential and career freedom, but disadvantages include wearing many different hats like boss, marketer, owner, etc. It takes a lot more effort to sustain. However, as someone who is passionate about building things from the ground up, I think I would enjoy this aspect of the job.

I would specifically want to pursue orthodontics as I had a pleasant experience getting braces and really believe that the procedure changed my life because I got a lot more confident. If I can save lives in the sense that people will be more comfortable in their own skin, I think I would feel extremely fulfilled. 

The average dentist makes between $130,000 and $370,000 per year, and the average orthodontist makes between $210,000 and $410,000 per year.

Reacting to Reader’s Braces Headcanons

I took a break from my event to create this extremely self-indulgent and rushed headcanons since I finally got my braces off! I have a very strong dislike for my retainer now but it will grow on me :’) Anyway this is comfort for me since my mouth is in pain lol.

One Piece Characters Reacting to Reader getting braces vs. getting them off!

One Piece Characters x Reader (Gender-Neutral/Nonbinary)

*I just did the Straw Hats, Law, Marco, Ace, and Thatch for this! (I did not add Jinbei as a straw hat since I am still not all the way caught up)

Warnings: This is long, Fluff- The characters reacting can be considered platonic/romantic- I will have any romantic (kissing) headcanons in bold. Except Chopper. He is strictly platonic because he is baby.

This is their normal One Piece world since I was a bit curious how they would react since I imagine that if there are dentists/orthodontists in their world it would be rare or only in like huge cities like Water 7.

FLAKSDSA Honestly just imagine Reader leaves the crew once in a while to go get their adjustments done or something lmfao. We ignore logic for this one. Only care about the reactions XD

Words: 2,343

Monkey D. Luffy:

When he firsts sees the metal in your mouth he is curious!

He will be in utter awe or laugh if he thinks they look funny (which of course makes Reader’s confidence plummet lol unless you laugh with him)

May call you a robot

He wants to know why they are shaped around your teeth- It is not like the gold or silver teeth that other pirates have that accompany missing teeth

This is weird for him since your teeth seem to be trying to look straight?

When you explain the reasoning of braces to him he is even more puzzled but excited for you!

He is not sure you really need them since he likes your smile regardless but he is happy if you are happy!

As for when you get them off- He is in awe that the braces did their job! And now you get to wear this weird plastic thing in your mouth

How the heck did you even get it in there?

He has no clue what a dentist/orthodontist is so he will just call them mouth doctor and think Chopper is the one helping you lol

Kissing with them on is also a weird experience for him! (I really hate to say it but he will love if you do not clean them very well. It makes him surprised but happy if he tastes food on them alfdjaslkf I HATE THIS lol)

He likes the way the metal feels when he explores your mouth but hopefully he is not a harsh kisser- You fear something will break if he really wanted to flakdfa

When you get your braces off he is in even more shock! That is so cool! Your smile is straight now! But now you got this weird plastic thing in your mouth... He does not mind he is just forgets you wear it since it is clear!

Luffy honestly does not care what you look like smile wise from before or after. He has no preference. He only cares that you are happy with your smile!

Roronoa Zoro:

“What the hell is in your mouth?”

THIS MAN BATHES ONCE A WEEK SO I WOULD ASSUME THAT IS THE SAME WITH HIS DENTAL HYGIENE?! I really hope not. I hope he cares for his mouth and will pretend he does now falksdfja

Anyway, he sees the metal and he is confused but once you explain it, he really does not care anymore

“Oh, cool, I guess.”

If you are partners though- He will be intrigued how kissing you would be. He takes the chance and decides it is an experience for sure tasting the metal in your mouth. (May remind of blood so he pretty cool with it alfdjalk)

Speaking of blood- If something ends up poking him or cutting him... He will enjoy it to the max tbh however if it is you that is hurt he will cease all kissing and only go for pecks until later

When you get them off I think he would miss tasting the metal

When you get your braces off he does not notice at first... It takes a few smiles before he goes... “Wait a minute...”

Then it hits him!

He will smile and be happy if he notices that being braceless brings you confidence with your new smile!

Nami:

SHE NOTICES THEM IMMEDIATELY AND SHE LIKES THEM

Nami is huge on hygiene so I think she would love to know more about dental hygiene and the concept of braces

She is understanding with your diet restrictions and will scold anyone who gives you weird looks or tries to get you to eat something you should not

She is your go-to for this since she also wants to see the end result as perfect

She is tad worried in the kissing department- Not wanting to mess your braces up since she knows how much effort goes into them but she also worried about her safety and if a wire or lose bracket will poke her or worse you. So she sticks to gentle kisses until they are off

She actually goes with you to your orthodontist to see how they take them off and to be there for you

She is happy with and for you upon seeing the end result!

and now her kisses can be harder >///<

Usopp:

As a tinkerer he will notice and also be intrigued. He has never seen braces (like Luffy and Zoro) and has never heard of them

He asks so many questions

Luffy, Zoro, and him are the ones who forget your diet restrictions which causes much irritation on your side. You will constantly glare at them for offering foods or drinks you can’t have

Usopp will eventually start remembering and be considerate on your behalf

When he kisses you he is soft and gentle- Not wanting to hurt you or himself. If he tastes blood he will pass out in fear just because he will blame himself and think he hurt you. He is too sweet :’)

As soon as your braces are off he will ask SO MANY QUESTIONS about the retainer like how was it made and such? Does it feel weird?

He is just so intrigued by it and of course- It makes you smile even more.

Sanji:

Tbh I feel like he would have had them as a kid or wanted them if his dad cared enough aldfjakl

Also notices them immediately

He will actually cater to your diet needs/restrictions because he knows how much they mean to you if you are going through such a time consuming thing to get your teeth fixed

Besides that he is just a friend you can go to if you are in mouth pain- He will make something soft for you every time you go for an adjustment or tea to help sooth your mouth

If you are kissing on the other hand- If homeboy does not pass out first he will be so gentle. He is terrified of hurting you or making you uncomfortable with your braces on (and lowkey is the same way even if you get them off- You will have to be the one to make the first move)

When you get them off- It is a food celebration! Whatever you missed eating or that you could not eat he will make it all for you!

He does notice if you are smile more and if you are more confident with your new smile! : )

Tony Tony Chopper:

HE IS YOUR BEST FRIEND DURING YOUR BRACES TIME.

He will constantly worry about any mouth pains and since he is a doctor is intrigued how someone labeled as a doctor for teeth does their jobs

He will asks questions constantly and write about your journey with this

10/10 cutie and best buddy for this

Make sure he is stocked on simple pain meds for you

Nico Robin:

She notices them but does not say anything or ask questions unless you want to talk about

She is sweet and looks out for you

Makes sure Sanji helps with your diet restrictions

Besides that she does not notice much or ask much

She is just happy that you are doing this for yourself

Her kisses concerning this are always gentle. She refuses to risk anything with you until after your braces are gone. Only then will she let herself become more heated with kisses.

After your braces she will always compliment your smile (and tell you it was beautiful before too but notes how confident you are)

Cyborg Franky:

“WHOA THAT IS SUPPPPPERRRR!”

He likes them.

That is all.

Okay but seriously. As a man who completely turned himself into a machine in the front he has mad respect for you for putting metal in your mouth. Like that concept is wild to him since the mouth is so sensitive (yet he also can blow flames out his mouth due to working on it aldfjal)

He will refuse to kiss you since he knows how is strength and hard kisses can damage your brackets/wires so he refuses anything until after they are safely off.

Besides that after your braces are off and you have your retainer on (He honestly didn’t notice the retainer lol) He will go “You have a SUPERRRR smile!”

Brook:

Brook honestly does notice them at first but he does not say anything until you do

Cue his jokes: “I NOTICE THE METAL IN YOUR TEETH WITH MY EYES BUT WAIT I DO NOT HAVE ANY EYES YOHOHOHO”

Besides that he is not that interested in them

For kissing though he also refuses to do so since he is straight up a skeleton. He does not want to risk his bone breaking ANYTHING. Though he will peck your cheek. Even after you get them off he is hesitant since he is a skeleton- That does not mean he will not try. If you ask he will get flustered and be gentle for you

When you get your braces off- Brook may tease you and say your teeth are almost as straight as his! And remind you constantly that he is a skeleton adlfjakl

Trafalgar Law:

Is just a king- I should stop all headcanons here alfdkaldks

He knows what braces are and is not that interested in the work only because he prefers his medicinal studies that are more morbid than the mouth

However, he is very observational still and notes how you care for them and what your diet is

For kissing- He acts like he does not care but he is gentle and careful when things gets heated. He is actually a big softie so he will do everything to avoid ruining your braces that would involve a setback.

After you get your braces off he also notices how much more confident you are. How much brighter your smile is because of that

Besides that- He does not make a big deal out of it

Marco the Phoenix:

He and the Whitebeard pirates have been nearly everywhere and met all kinds of people so he is not that surprised when he notices that you have braces

He has seen them before so not a big deal

Much like Law, Marco will not make a big deal out of it

However, if you both are close to each other he may tease you whenever you develop a lisp or when are embarrassed after an adjustment.

Either way he means it with a good heart

God- Kisses with Marco when you have braces are so, so, so, gentle. He is the king of kisses no matter what. He is careful but he sure as hell will not let the metal win when you both get heated. So he knows how to maneuver around your mouth with his tongue >///<

When you get your braces off- It is a celebration with the whole crew. Marco helps plan it and of course takes photos of your smile afterwards since you have every right to be proud of your smile

He will always comment on how your smile is brighter

Portgas D. Ace:

Also with Marco (and Thatch) he is rather used to seeing different kinds of people with different situations so he is not surprised to see metal in your mouth

However when you get close to him he does ask questions and get intrigued

He only teases you when you have some trouble speaking a few words but besides that- He is also respectful and does not think much of the braces

Though since he is one that eats all the time he tries to be considerate for you since he knows that it can be frustrating with your diet restrictions

If you are in a relationship with him he actually is not confident in kissing you with your braces. It is because he cares so much about you and because of his self-loathing- He would HATE if he messed up your braces so he is cautious and tries not to push anything until after you get your braces off

When your braces comes off homeboy is going to dine-and-dash with you EVERYWHERE

Thatch-

Like the other two- Thatch is used to this kind of thing so he is not surprised

Since he is the culinary chef for the Whitebeard Pirates you bet your butt he will have better foods for you to suit your needs

He is also teasing like the others and may take it a far sometimes but he will remind you that you are good with or without braces!

He constantly makes sure you are doing fine though since he is aware of how the other whitebeard pirates may not be as considerate as he is

Kisses with Thatch are gentle but I think if it gets too heated he may forget that he is supposed to be gentle. He definitely ends up tearing up his tongue on the metal if this is the case and he feels bad if you feel bad- If not he will laugh it off and continue if you want

After you get your braces off- He will check with what you want to celebrate! What kind foods you have to eat first and you get the honor of taking the first bite!

OKAY LAST BUT NOT LEAST HERE IS A LIST ON WHO WOULD MAKE SURE YOU ACTUALLY WEAR YOUR RETAINER :’):

Would forget you you wear a retainer so they would not be helpful as a reminder: Luffy, Zoro, Franky, Brook, Ace

Remembers then forgets after a while: Usopp and Thatch

Makes you wear your retainer as instructed and will give you a death glare (out of love of course) if you are not doing so: Nami, Robin, Sanji, Chopper, and Marco

Will make sure you wear your retainer even though he says he does not care, and will murder your soul if you do not do so (out of love but he will lie about it): Law

Got my wisdom teeth out yesterday. It's been sucking absolute shit. And not in the normal way? I think?

Tw for vomiting/limited food intake. I'm on mobile and I can't figure out how to do a cut rn. So just be warned.

I literally can't keep anything with sugar/calories in it down. Cream of chicken, apple juice, ice cream-- it stays down for like a maximum of four hours and then suddenly I start gagging and then there's stomach acid and whatever little I ate all over the floor. I haven't been able to take the antibiotics they gave me, or any ibuprofen/Tylenol/any pain medication because it'll just come back up. My stomach is oscillating between really really hungry and nauseous at the drop of a hat. The only thing I'm able to have is water, but constantly puking up my fluids has left me really dehydrated.

My cheeks are so swollen I can barely lay on my side without it all pooling up. I got delayed action treatment, so they haven't started throbbing/really hurting yet. But the scabs keep opening up because of the constant vomiting. And since I cant take the antibiotics, I'm worried they'll become infected and it'll get even worse.

Called the dentist about this, haven't heard anything back. It's just a lot and I wasn't expecting to react this badly. I was more worried about the anaesthetic then recovery. Nobody else in my family has had a bad reaction to medicines like this.

Is this normal? Has anyone else reacted like this to wisdom tooth extraction? What else should I do? I'm so nervous to eat or drink anything because I know it will just come back up. But my system is going haywire from dehydration and hunger. Please anyone?

What You Can Do to Maintain Your Health

A lot of factors play a role in staying healthy. In turn, good health can decrease your risk of developing certain conditions. These include heart disease, stroke, some cancers, and injuries. Learn what you can do to maintain your and your family’s health.

Path to improved health

Eat healthy.

What you eat is closely linked to your health. Balanced nutrition has many benefits. By making healthier food choices, you can prevent or treat some conditions. These include heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. A healthy diet can help you lose weight and lower your cholesterol, as well.

In this speedy age it’s hard to maintain health and fitness. We need a lot of time, money and expertise. For the same reason the doctors and Physicians are recommending fitness supplements more than ever. These formulae work best if you are recommended the best. Being a nutritionist, I am recommending a Best Weight Loss Supplement For many months. It gives my clients speedy results, satisfaction and stability. Zero side Effects.

It’s an excellent Fat cutter, energizer, cancer prevention, age restriction, immunity booster and health glower at the same time and in the short time. In maximum 7 weeks you get a slim smart body, shining cheeks, active brain and high level (tested) of immunity. Click Here to see its review.

Get regular exercise.

Exercise can help prevent heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and colon cancer. It can help treat depression, osteoporosis, and high blood pressure. People who exercise also get injured less often. Routine exercise can make you feel better and keep your weight under control. Try to be active for 30 to 60 minutes about 5 times a week. Remember, any amount of exercise is better than none.

Lose weight if you’re overweight.

Many Americans are overweight. Carrying too much weight increases your risk for several health conditions. These include:

high blood pressure

high cholesterol

type 2 diabetes

heart disease

stroke

some cancers

gallbladder disease

Being overweight also can lead to weight-related injuries. A common problem is arthritis in the weight-bearing joints, such as your spine, hips, or knees. There are several things you can try to help you lose weight and keep it off.

Protect your skin.

Sun exposure is linked to skin cancer. This is the most common type of cancer in the United States. It’s best to limit your time spent in the sun. Be sure to wear protective clothing and hats when you are outside. Use sunscreen year-round on exposed skin, like your face and hands. It protects your skin and helps prevent skin cancer. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen that blocks both UVA and UVB rays. It should be at least an SPF 15. Do not sunbathe or use tanning booths.

Practice safe sex.

Safe sex is good for your emotional and physical health. The safest form of sex is between 2 people who only have sex with each other. Use protection to prevent sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Condoms are the most effective form of prevention. Talk to your doctor if you need to be tested for STDs.

Don’t smoke or use tobacco.

Smoking and tobacco use are harmful habits. They can cause heart disease and mouth, throat, or lung cancer. They also are leading factors of emphysema and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The sooner you quit, the better.

Limit how much alcohol you drink.

Men should have no more than 2 drinks a day. Women should have no more than 1 drink a day. One drink is equal to 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of liquor. Too much alcohol can damage your liver. It can cause some cancers, such as throat, liver, or pancreas cancer. Alcohol abuse also contributes to deaths from car wrecks, murders, and suicides.

Things to consider

In addition to the factors listed above, you should make time for whole body health. Visit your doctors for regular checkups. This includes your primary doctor, as well as your dentist and eye doctor. Let your health benefits and preventive care services work for you. Make sure you know what your health insurance plan involves. Preventive care can detect disease or prevent illness before they start. This includes certain doctor visits and screenings.

You need to make time for breast health. Breast cancer is a leading cause of death for women. Men can get breast cancer, too. Talk to your doctor about when you should start getting mammograms. You may need to start screening early if you have risk factors, such as family history. One way to detect breast cancer is to do a monthly self-exam.

Women should get routine pap smears, as well. Women ages 21 to 65 should get tested every 3 years. This may differ if you have certain conditions or have had your cervix removed.

Ask your doctor about other cancer screenings. Adults should get screened for colorectal cancer starting at age 50. Your doctor may want to check for other types of cancer. This will depend on your risk factors and family history.

Keep a list of current medicines you take. You also should stay up to date on shots, including getting an annual flu shot. Adults need a Td booster every 10 years. Your doctor may substitute it with Tdap. This also protects against whooping cough (pertussis). Women who are pregnant need the Tdap vaccine. People who are in close contact with babies should get it, as well.

Questions to ask your doctor

How many calories should I eat and how often should I exercise to maintain my current weight?

Should I have a yearly physical exam?

What types of preventive care does my insurance cover?

When should I start getting screened for certain cancers and conditions?

Which healthy choice is the most important for me?
