Flossing is one of the most effective methods of ensuring a healthy mouth. It helps remove bacteria and other pathogens from between the teeth. This stops harmful molecules from getting into the bloodstream and spreading throughoutthe body.

Dental health is paramount to whole body health as the mouth is part of thebody's circulatory system. Ridding the mouth of these harmful microbes also prevents gum disease and tooth decay.

Exercise challenges the body to adapt and improve. It provides physical and emotional benefits.Plan on exercising for at least 30 minutes a minimum of four days of the week.

Exercise should be uncomfortable, but not painful. Perspiration and increased heart rate are signs of a moderate to high-intensity workout session. If a workout does not result in these signs, then it may not be challenging enough to produce benefits.
