8 out of 10 People Impacted by New Epidemic
Digital Eye Strain is a new epidemic affecting roughly 8 out of every 10 people twenty-five years and older in North America – that’s 80% of nearly our whole working force! With the rise of technology, most people use screens for sometimes hours at a time. This increased digital focus is causing dry eyes, headaches, light sensitivity, blurred vision and neck pain. Whether you have any of these symptoms or work on your computer for more than 3 hours total per day, be sure to see an optometrist that prescribes glasses and/or contacts for Digital Eye Strain.
Home Remedy for Denture Pain
There are many reasons to replace missing natural teeth with dentures; aesthetics, proper mastication of your food, digestion, proper jaw alignment (to avoid a TMJ disorder), and speech to name a few. However sometimes dentures can cause pain or discomfort, especially if they are old or ill-fitting. An easy home remedy to help relieve gum/oral tissue pain is rinsing with saltwater twice daily. Doing this will help reduce swelling and help heal any sores that may have developed. It also inhibits growth of bacteria in the mouth. Simply dissolve 1 teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water and rinse your mouth in the morning and evening. (Note: not intended to replace consultation with qualified medical professional.)

The Safe Alternative To Online Dating
Online dating can be exhausting, dangerous and demoralizing. Hours of searching profiles, followed by unsuccessful date after date can result in dating ‘burn out’. Furthermore, when it comes to online dating, you never know who you are really meeting. You have no idea about their actual age and relationship status, their true intentions or if they have a criminal history. Online dating can be extremely dangerous. This is why I recommend a professional matchmaker. An experienced matchmaker will introduce you to the right match, who is screened, and hand picked for you. Finding true love is important and hiring a matchmaker could be the best decision you ever make.
You Are Not Overweight, You Are Overacidic
Are you looking to achieve optimal health, all while shedding excess weight? Over-acidification of the body sets in motion a destructive cycle of imbalance, disease and obesity. Too much acid in the body robs the blood of oxygen, and without oxygen, the metabolism slows. Food digests more slowly, inducing weight gain and sluggishness, and worse still, causing the food to ferment. It is vital to balance your pH level by reducing your acidity through drinking good pure water, eating natural foods, and eliminating highly processed high sugar content foods.

Digital vs Text Book?
Today’s students see themselves as digital natives, the first generation to grow up surrounded by technology like smartphones, tablets and e-readers. We’ve seen more investment in classroom technologies, with students now equipped with school-issued iPads and access to e-textbooks. The question is, do we learn better from printed books than digital versions? The answer from researchers is a qualified yes. Print books are tangible; the act of turning pages, dragging highlighters across information, and seeing progress has been shown to leave spatial impressions on your mind that help absorb content. And print books don’t have online distractions!
