Dry Mouth 101

Occasionally, every person may experience dry mouth. This usually happens when a person is nervous, tense or under stress. But drying mouth could be pretty problematic if you're experiencing it for longer durations or more often than usual.

Sticky, dry feeling of the mouth, frequent thirst, sores in the mouth or in the split skin at the corners of the mouth, cracked lips, dry and red tongue, difficulty in tasting, chewing and swallowing, hoarseness, dry nasal passages, sore throat and bad breath are some of the hints of dry mouth.

Saliva keeps the mouth wet. It helps digest food, protect teeth from decay, prevent infection by controlling bacteria and fungi in the mouth, and makes it possible for us to chew and swallow. Not having enough saliva can increase the risk of tooth decay and other infections in the mouth. Difficulty in chewing and swallowing may hinder the body from getting as much nourishment as it needs.

Some people think it is a normal part of aging. But it is not! Other people however may feel the symptoms of mouth that is dry even if their salivary glands are working properly. People with certain disorders such as Alzheimer's disease or those who have suffered a stroke may not feel the wetness in their mouths and think it is dry even though it's not.

What to do if you think you are experiencing dry mouth? Sip water more often. Avoid drinks with caffeine (coffee, tea and soda). Caffeine dries the mouth. Sip water during meals. This will help make chewing and swallowing easier. You may chew sugarless gum or suck sugarless candy to stimulate saliva flow. Citrus, cinnamon or mint-flavored candies can do the trick! Don't smoke tobacco or drink alcohol. They increase the risk to dry mouth. Be aware of spicy and salty foods that may cause pain when you have dry mouth and AVOID them.

Panic Attacks During Pregnancy - Can Pregnancy Hormones Cause Anxiety and Panic Attacks?

When a woman gets pregnant her body goes through many different kinds of changes. Hormone levels will be on the rise as the body prepares to sustain life for both the mother and the fetus.

It is typical for women to experience fear and worry when they are pregnant. They will fear for the health of their unborn child. They will worry about the possibility of having a miscarriage if they don't do everything just right. All of these fears are common, although usually unfounded. Nature has a way of taking care of the innocent and keeping them safe. A miscarriage is usually a sign that something is seriously wrong and the fetus is not healthy enough to live.

With the drastic change in hormone levels many women find that they suddenly suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. You may have never had an anxiety attack or a panic attack in your life until you become pregnant and all of a sudden you find that your fears are out of control.

There is no way to know how your body will react to the increase in hormones. Everybody reacts differently and until you have been there you just can't tell how it will go. Increased levels of hormones are making all kinds of changes in your body but these changes are necessary for a normal pregnancy and delivery.

If you find that you suddenly experience anxiety and panic attacks during pregnancy you should immediately discuss this with your doctor. For nine months your body will be undergoing changes and that is a long time to deal with severe anxiety and panic.

Now, more than ever, it is important for you to eat a healthy diet and get regular exercise. The delivery process is called labor for a reason. Your body needs to be in good physical shape to endure this process. This will also help the fetus grow strong and healthy if the mother stays healthy. The things you eat will also go to feed the baby so you need to take care to eat foods that provide nourishment to the baby.

If you experience a lot of anxiety and panic your doctor will probably recommend that you give up caffeine entirely. Caffeine is a stimulant that flows through the bloodstream and into the bloodstream of the baby. It is possible for the baby to feel stressed at the same time the mother does.

Avoid taking pain killers or other types of medicine unless your doctor approves it. Remember, everything that enters your bloodstream will also enter the baby's bloodstream.

Do something you enjoy every day. This could be a long soak in the tub or a shopping trip to look for baby items. If it makes you feel good it will help you relax.

If you follow these simple guidelines you will probably not have any reason to become anxious or panicky. Remember that pregnancy is a normal process that women experience every day. You may have to learn a few techniques to help you get through those hormonal periods but when you look at the end result you will know that it is all worth it.

In this article we have explored panic attacks during pregnancy. This information is but a tip of the iceberg when it comes to panic attacks during pregnancy. In my free eCourse - The mystery of the 7th cure, I show you deep strategies that will eradicate your panic attacks and anxiety disorders fast!

Mood Swings

Jim is a successful software engineer and a happily married man with a loving wife and two lovely children. These days, he goes through a range of emotions in the matter of hours and there seems to be just one term to describe it - a roller coaster ride. When he wakes up in the morning, he feels great and looks forward to the day. Breakfast time with his family is a fun-filled time and Jim feels his normal self, joking and asking his kids about their school and friends. By lunch, his mood has darkened and he is tense and nervous. This at times results in his feeling aggressive towards his co-workers and subordinates. By end of the day, he is extremely restless and can barely wait to finish his work and head home. Back home, his mood stays unchanged. He does not want to speak to anyone or go out and do something. By late evening, Jim is feeling fine again. He is watching some old movies with his family and fondly reminiscing about the past. But as the night approaches, Jim's spirits start to sink again till he is in utter despair by midnight. Day in and day out, Jim goes through these extreme mood shifts and he is afraid that he has completely lost control of his emotions.

Jim is going through what are called Mood Swings. The most common way of defining mood swings is that they are rapidly changing moods. Capable of causing extreme emotional distress, mood swings can make you feel very lost and lonely. In fact, your reactions in certain situations may be absolutely extreme without your even realizing it. Though a very common occurrence, not many realize that they are going through mood swings, resulting in a very frustrating time for both themselves and even more so for their family members, till they seek help. Everyone goes through stress and anxiety at different stages and at different levels in their lifetime and these can cause mood swings from time to time. However, if the mood swings are frequent and are severe enough to be disrupting your life, you should seek help.

It is now estimated that mood swings and mood disorders affect a very large percentage of the population. It is quite natural for a person to have small mood changes on a daily or weekly and at times of great stress, even on a monthly basis. However, the more severe forms of mood disorders can lead to bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression. In fact, persistent or severe mood swings, if left untreated can lead to very serious consequences. Studies have also shown that women tend to be more affected by mood swings than do men. Most women who experience such mood changes do so as a result of hormonal changes either during pregnancy, post-partum or during menopause.

Almost all mood swings are characterized by certain periods of extreme emotion - these periods are called episodes. There can be episodes of mania, in which you will experience a heightened sense of emotion - less sleep, an increase in talking and racing thoughts - like you are on caffeine. At the other end, there can be episodes of depression when everything is subdued. You may feel continuously sad or dejected, have great doubts about yourself and lose self-confidence. This can also start having an effect on your physical health leading to strong headaches, chronic pain and major digestive ailments.

There is no doubt that mood swings can have a devastating effect on you and your family. If undiagnosed and untreated, causes for the mood changes are not understood leading to a very frustrating time for you and a very painful time for your family. Not knowing what is triggering your mood changes, how to cope with them and how to help you when you are in these extreme moods, can be unnerving. In fact, you may feel so out of control that you may slowly stop doing all those activities that you once enjoyed for sheer fear of people seeing you when you are experiencing one of your mood swings.

Mood Swings are often confused with Bipolar Disorder or Manic Depression. However, it is important to note that mood swings are not as severe and do not last as long as the more advanced form of Bipolar Disorder or Manic Depression. In Bipolar Disorder or Manic Depression Disorder, extreme moods of depression or mania persist for many days, at times for weeks and months.

What should however be heartening to hear is that mood swings are very common and there are a variety of treatment options, from which one can choose the particular treatment option that suits them best. Further, treatment methods for mood swings have excellent success rates with almost 80-90% of all those who seek help experience great relief. Unfortunately, only about one third of those who suffer from chronic mood disorders seek help, with the rest suffering in silence. It is therefore very important for the individual, family and friends to recognize the symptoms of mood swings and seek instant help for all.

Tooth Whitening - Do it Yourself Or Seek Professional Help?

If you have dull, discolored, or stained teeth, then a tooth whitening procedure from a dentist may work wonders in restoring your youthful, bright, white smile and enhancing your confidence in everyday life. You can find many products at your local discount, drug, and grocery stores that promise miraculous results. However, practicing good daily dental hygiene and receiving a professional bleaching treatment is the best way to achieve the smile of your dreams.

Products That Discolor Teeth

Caffeine, tobacco, and aging all take their toll on the outer layers of your tooth enamel. Notoriously, teeth are readily stained by food particles such as tea and coffee, soy sauce, and berries. Unfortunately, with age teeth become more vulnerable and absorb stains more readily from food and other substances. Of course, brushing, flossing, and rinsing help to combat these external factors, but all of these agents when put in your mouth on a daily basis take their toll. Some stains related to medications, traumatic injuries, and fluorosis begin inside the teeth so flossing and brushing does not really help in removing those stains.

Commercial Toothpastes And Bleaching Agents To Whiten Teeth

If you stroll down an aisle at a grocery store devoted to dental care, you will find many brands of toothpaste that promise to whiten your teeth. Some of them can effectively make teeth a bit brighter by a few shades and remove certain stains. The problem is that the reasons most of these products work is because they have substances that are abrasive to your tooth's enamel and wear it away.

Bleaching agents that you buy at a store can be somewhat effective to whiten your teeth, but only on particular stains. For badly discolored or pitted teeth, these products are not that effective. In addition, if your dental problem is gray or brown teeth, then bleaching agents may not be your solution because it is not specifically designed to solve these stains. Bleaching agents are also not very effective at correcting the discoloration of dental restorations like bridges and crowns.

The Pros Of Professional Whitening

The safest and most effective method of whitening your teeth is to seek the services of a dental professional. Sure, we encourage you to take care of your daily dental hygiene with whitening toothpastes and bleaching agents, but when push comes to shove, count on your dentist who knows how to monitor your current dental condition. In addition, this procedure can last for as long as five years.

Because personal oral hygiene does not fully combat stained teeth, people also choose procedures for tooth whitening from a professional to reverse effects of outside agents and the natural deterioration from aging. With products available at your local stores for tooth whitening products and with your dentist ready to help in this regard, what is best to bleach teeth? Consulting with a dentist for a recommendation that fits your individual situation.

Memory Enhancers - Best Tips to Improve Your Memory Instantly

To keep our minds sharper and our memory more clear is going to be the trick in staying before the ever accelerating aging population, as we move into the future. Last year the figures showed us that 7% of the planet's population is regarded old and by the year 2040 it is expected this percentage will double to 14%.

Though this in itself is shocking on a number of fronts, there's one thing that suggests itself as more significant than most others. Many of these folks will suffer some type of Alzheimer's illness or Dementia. So we can do what we need to, to cut back the hazards we have individually, we look to the introduction and frequent use of what are typically known as Memory Enhancers.

In an extraordinary twist there are methods and things that we will be able to do, which don't involve the utilization of chemicals, tablets or potions, and in contrast to some info presented to us over time, these things can in reality have great advantages for us. Let us take a couple of these now and inspect their potential.

1. Gum - Whether you accept it or not, it's an idea that gnawing everyday gum can really improve our alertness and memory. This was something determined at the conclusion of 2 critical medical studies in 2004. In these studies it was discovered that folk who chewed gum in the learning segment of a particular test, basically recalled test items much better than those who weren't gum. Without any substantiated reasons why this could be the case, it was claimed that one reason could be that chewing increases heart beat rate, which in turn increases the blood flow to the brain.

More up to date studies have not found a link to the chewing of gum as memory enhancers, but they have concluded that there's a conspicuous improvement in application.

2. Exercise - We hear this all of the time re other areas of our life. Again we deliver the same finding that exercise increases pulse rate and body strength, which in turn increases blood flow to the brain. There has additionally been a heap of research completed over recent decades that does conclude, exercise can in fact be a memory enhancer.

A current study conducted in 2008 proved that eating a reduced calorie diet was ample to improve memory, in healthy old subjects. For exercises to be considered memory enhancers try biking to work, taking the steps rather than the lift, and walking rather than driving to the store in the vehicle.

3. Caffeine - we've all heard how hard coffee can be for us, and this is also declared of other caffeinated drinks. Though there are folk who will contest many issues associated with coffee, virtually everybody will agree that there's a distinct link between coffee and application (and subsequently our memory). In reality latest research has proven that coffee (caffeine) definitely increases short term memory, as well as it protects older ladies from memory loss.

There is even fascinating debate going on about the undeniable fact that caffeine may be ready to reverse the consequences of Alzheimer's. This has been proved in mice.

Teeth Whitening Might Work To Help Quit Smoking

In this article we are not saying that teeth whitening is one of the next fads to help you quit smoking but customers who have had laser teeth whitening treatment and see the benefits of having white teeth then think twice about continuing their smoking habit.

Laser teeth whitening is undertaken in salons where clients have a gum dam applied to protect their gums and then a stain removing gel is applied before the laser light is activated. The gel then gains deep in to the enamel removing the staining and this is all done just under one hour.
Typically the teeth are lightened by 6-8 shades and the treatment can last up to 18 months depending on how and when the staining that caused the problem is then minimized otherwise the benefit is decreased.

Nicotine is not the only bad habit to cause staining to the enamel but caffeine, red wine, gravy and sauces will also stain the teeth but like many things it will depend on the frequency of usage but with such a simple and time effective treatment available for your teeth then no need to worry.
Laser teeth whitening is also known as zoom whitening which is a commonly used name in the USA and even the Americans have developed Zoom 2 teeth whitening which is essentially the same but early adopters will want to try new names and ideas.

The name aside laser teeth whitening is a huge growth industry and with added benefits like helping clients to quit smoking then no wonder customers are prepared to travel to get the treatment.

How to Stop Bleeding Gums

Bleeding gums can be one sign of periodontal disease, gingivitis, or other serious problems. Other symptoms like bad breath, toothache, and receding gums indicate poor dental health.

Gum disease affects the tissues that surround and support the teeth. Bacteria affect the gum, which can turn into tartar and plaque buildup, irritate your gums and lead to bleeding and receding gums. Top quality oral hygiene cures bleeding gums.

Bleeding gums are also caused by the canker sores which are caused by the herpes simplex virus. Aging is also a factor for bleeding gums. If you do not treat gums properly it may eventually lead to loss of teeth. Early diagnoses of the bleeding gums are better and you can treat them so that there are no further complications. Tooth loss is caused gum weakening. Many people are affected by gingivitis that is characterized by bleeding gums and swollen gums. This condition may also be painful for some people.

Folic acid tablets are also available in the medical stores for this purpose. Gums that bleed are not only unhealthy but are also unattractive. People who take care of their external looks should also concentrate on the bleeding gums. Consult a dentist if you have problems like toothache, canker sores, receding gums or excessive plaque.

Brushing teeth is such a routine that very few people think about it. The teeth are not getting brushed properly. All-natural, fluoride-free toothpaste should be used for brushing. While brushing your teeth along the gum line, angle your toothbrush at a 45-degree so it is up against your teeth and gums. Then jiggle the toothbrush back and forth in small, round strokes. The correct motion is more like massaging along the gums line than brushing.

Adding 2 -3 drops of tea-tree oil to the toothpaste for brushing provides good teeth. You will have a longer fresh-breath feeling afterwards. Flossing daily is the best way to stop plaque from forming between teeth. When flossing is done on a daily basis as advised, bleeding will become less & less and soon gone. Flossing & scaling can reach and clean under the gum line effectively.

Home Remedies For Acid Reflux Disease - From Gum to Apple Cider Vinegar

There are many people who suffer the effects of acid reflux disease, a disorder in which the contents of the stomach including gastric acids are regurgitated back up into the esophagus and throat. Those who suffer from its effects know the symptoms well; heartburn, pain or burning in the throat, bitter taste at the back of the throat, difficulty swallowing, chronic cough, and hoarseness caused by damage to the larynx. Fortunately for most people simple home remedies for acid reflux disease can usually control the problem.

Many people mistakenly think that acid reflux, or GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease), is caused by the production of to much stomach acid. While stomach acid is the main cause of the symptoms experienced the reason it gets back into the esophagus is the failure of 3 specific points in the esophagus; the anti-reflux barrier, the lower esophageal sphincter, and the gastroesophageal valve. If any one of these three barriers is weakened or fails acid has the opportunity to move back up the esophagus.

Probably the best home remedy to keep acid reflux at bay is eating a healthy diet that minimizes the production of stomach acid. One way to find out which foods make the symptoms worse is to keep a food log for a few weeks. Keep track of which foods set off the acid reflux and then it becomes easier to avoid them, or at least eat them in moderation. This list can vary from person to person but there are some foods that are known to cause acid reflux symptoms in the majority of its sufferers. These include fatty foods, spicy foods, certain spices, some citrus fruits, and caffeine.

One of the more unknown remedies for acid reflux is apple cider vinegar. In addition to treating GERD apple cider vinegar is also rumored to help with weight loss, acne, cholesterol, constipation, and heartburn. It is believed that the acidity of the vinegar mimics the acid in your stomach helping to more easily digest the food that has been eaten. The best way to take apple cider vinegar is just before or with your meal. One tablespoon mixed with water works best but make sure to use the organic variety, which still has the enzymes in it.

There are also certain fruits and vegetables that have a calming effect on the stomach can help control the symptoms of acid reflux. These include bananas, apples, figs, pineapple and papaya along with carrots and cabbage. Cinnamon, cardamom, mace, nutmeg, and slippery elm are a few herbs and spices that also help reduce the effects of GERD.

Chewing gum is another quick remedy for acid reflux. It works by increasing saliva output and saliva is the body's natural ant-acid. As you swallow the excess saliva produced by chewing gum it settles the stomach and reduces the amount of acid being produced.

If you or someone you know suffers from acid reflux disease then trying some of these home remedies may provide relief from the symptoms. It is important to talk to your doctor about your GERD and get a thorough check up because if not properly treated it can damage the esophagus and can eventually cause a form of throat cancer.

Coffee Addiction - Alternatives to Coffee

Do you have an addiction to coffee? Do you find it hard to get through even half an hour without having another cup? Have you worn a trail between your desk and the coffee machine? Well there are alternatives which will still keep you active, without the addictive properties of caffeine.

First of all, don't try to go "cold turkey" and stop drinking coffee completely and suddenly. If you do that, you're quite likely to have severe withdrawal symptoms such as sweating and shaking hands. Just take it gradually and cut down to start with. Try to reduce your coffee intake by about fifty percent in the first instance and replace those other cups of coffee with something else. Here are some ideas.

Drink something else: Variety is the spice of life, so why not alternate your cups of coffee with fruit or vegetable juices, hot chocolate, or even a low calorie carbonated drink but not cola unless it's decaffeinated. How about decaf coffee? It isn't completely without caffeine but it's a start. Water, boring though it may seem, is also a refreshing alternative to coffee.

The sugar rush: If it's the sugar from your cup of coffee that you need for energy, have a cereal bar instead or a piece of fruit. The sugar from an apple or orange is far healthier than the refined sugar you put in coffee.

Coffee instead of food: If you drink coffee because it takes the edge off your appetite and you're trying to diet, it's a very bad idea and incredibly unhealthy. Do eat something. Eat carrot sticks or other vegetables. Keep them in the 'fridge ready prepared so it's no effort or take them to work in an airtight box. Have some cottage cheese on crispbread or even a sandwich but take it easy on the butter and the filling. A scrape of low fat spread and a thin slice of ham or cheese with some tomato, lettuce and cucumber certainly won't do you much harm even if you are on a diet and bread is a great source of carbohydrate and therefore slow-release energy, which is much better than the sugar rush you get from sweets and chocolates. If you must have something sweet, try sugar free mints or gum or low fat and sugar plain biscuits.

Start the day right: Have a good energy giving breakfast such as muesli or porridge. If the weather is cold, there's nothing like a steaming bowl of porridge to set you up for the day. If you can't be bothered to make porridge, get one of those instant oatmeal cereals that you just add hot water or milk to.

Exercise for energy: There's nothing like some strenuous exercise to increase your metabolic rate and your adrenalin levels, So much so that you probably won't even feel the need for caffeine if you take some exercise a couple of times a day, even for ten minutes at a time.

If you follow some or all of the above suggestions as well as gradually reducing your coffee consumption until you finally drink no more than three cups of coffee a day, that coffee addiction and nasty side effects will be beaten.

Coffee Addiction - Alternatives to Coffee

Do you have an addiction to coffee? Do you find it hard to get through even half an hour without having another cup? Have you worn a trail between your desk and the coffee machine? Well there are alternatives which will still keep you active, without the addictive properties of caffeine.

First of all, don't try to go "cold turkey" and stop drinking coffee completely and suddenly. If you do that, you're quite likely to have severe withdrawal symptoms such as sweating and shaking hands. Just take it gradually and cut down to start with. Try to reduce your coffee intake by about fifty percent in the first instance and replace those other cups of coffee with something else. Here are some ideas.

Drink something else: Variety is the spice of life, so why not alternate your cups of coffee with fruit or vegetable juices, hot chocolate, or even a low calorie carbonated drink but not cola unless it's decaffeinated. How about decaf coffee? It isn't completely without caffeine but it's a start. Water, boring though it may seem, is also a refreshing alternative to coffee.

The sugar rush: If it's the sugar from your cup of coffee that you need for energy, have a cereal bar instead or a piece of fruit. The sugar from an apple or orange is far healthier than the refined sugar you put in coffee.

Coffee instead of food: If you drink coffee because it takes the edge off your appetite and you're trying to diet, it's a very bad idea and incredibly unhealthy. Do eat something. Eat carrot sticks or other vegetables. Keep them in the 'fridge ready prepared so it's no effort or take them to work in an airtight box. Have some cottage cheese on crispbread or even a sandwich but take it easy on the butter and the filling. A scrape of low fat spread and a thin slice of ham or cheese with some tomato, lettuce and cucumber certainly won't do you much harm even if you are on a diet and bread is a great source of carbohydrate and therefore slow-release energy, which is much better than the sugar rush you get from sweets and chocolates. If you must have something sweet, try sugar free mints or gum or low fat and sugar plain biscuits.

Start the day right: Have a good energy giving breakfast such as muesli or porridge. If the weather is cold, there's nothing like a steaming bowl of porridge to set you up for the day.

The History Of Bubble Gum

The Bubble Gum has gone through a lot over its long history. In the early 1900s, a man named Frank Fleer tried to come up with the perfect bubble gum recipe for his candy company. He experimented with a lot of gum recipes to find it. His first bubble gum however turned out to be too sticky and his recipes were never sold.

In 1928, Walter Diemer was able to discover the bubble gum recipe by accident. He was experimenting with different gum recipes when he stumbled upon a mixture that started to form bubbles. He took this discovery and brought it to a grocery store to test it. All the gum was sold in a single day.

Walter Diemer brought his invention to the Fleer Company and was named and marketed as "Dubble Bubble" gum. To help sell the gum and help people understand, Diemer taught the salesmen how to blow bubbles using the gum. The salesmen in turn taught the people who bought the gum. It was a huge success and for many years the Dubble Bubble gum was the only bubble gum on the market.

The Topps Candy Company started manufacturing bubble gum at the end of World War II. The company introduced the famous Bazooka Bubble Gum. This was named after the musical instrument that was created in the 1930s by Bob Burns. As an added gimmick, the gum had "Bazooka Joe" comic strips on the gum wrapper which contributed to its popularity. Also as incentives for children, the Topps Company included gum to the Bazooka Joe baseball cards in 1953.

Each type and brand of bubble gum, may it be bubble or chewing gum, has its own unique formula. But generally, these steps are followed in making gum. The ingredients are placed in large steam-jacketed kettles where they are cooked at high temperatures until melted and become as thick as maple syrup. While maintaining the high temperature, the syrup is passed through mesh screen filters. They are then moved into vacuum strainers. After this, the hot liquid mix is poured into a machine that has slow revolving blades. It is here that sugar, flavoring and corn syrup are added into the mix. In making sugarless gum, sweeteners like sorbitol, xylitol, or mannitol substitute the sugar.

After this step, the sweetened liquid moves to a cooler where the temperature is dropped to slightly solidify the gum and is prepared for the extruder machine. The extruder machine will maneuver the gum to achieve a certain texture. When set, the mix is passed through a roller where the gum is flattened. The thinnest sheets are made into stick gum while the thicker sheets are made into candy-coated gum. The stick gum then goes through high powered machines where it is wrapped, packaged and shipped to different candy stores around the world.

The candy-coated gum though needs to go through more work. The thick sheets are cut into pellets and then sprinkled with powdered sugar. The sprinkled pellets are then set aside and allowed to set for 48 hours. When set, these pellets move into large revolving machines that coat them with candy until they reach the desired coat thickness. They then go through high powered machines where they are wrapped, packaged and shipped to the different candy shops.

At the present day, blowing bubbles has become a tradition that friends and families have where they pass on the joy of blowing bubbles with bubble gum.

How to Blow Bubbles With Bubble Gum Like A Pro

Many cultures chew substances made from Mother Nature such as grasses, plants and resins. Chewing gum's history actually dates back to the ancient Greeks, being their favorite hobby. However, it was a William Semple, not a Greek, who first patented chewing gum on 28 December 1869 and a Susan Montgomery who had blown the largest gum bubble ever at 23 inches in diameter. She is recorded in the Guinness World Record.

The most popular brands are not always the best for blowing bubbles. Companies like Bubble Yum and Bubbicilious have created soft, easy to chew, full of flavor, long lasting gum; great for those that want to chew gum, bad for those that want to blow bubbles. If you want to blow championship bubbles, go with a less popular brand like Double Bubble or Bazooka. They contain less sugar and are harder to chew, but offer superior strength for bubbles.

The trick is to use a small amount of gum. If after you have blown your bubble and still find gum in your mouth, it does not mean you need more gum. Just more practice. More gum does not make more bubble. Also, you can only use three pieces of gum to contest the world record.

To beat against the odds of blowing your gum bubbles to their full potential, try to practice indoors where it is easier to manage the wind and temperature. These two factors are crucial to your success. Too cold, the skin of your bubble will get thin and breaks easily; too hot, your bubble will collapse prematurely.

All bubble gum have sugar and artificial flavors in them for taste. However, these two ingredients are bad news for those who want to blow big bubbles. A trick is to masticate your gum until you work out most of the sugar and artificial flavoring, which in turn will create superior strength for your bubbles. The next step is to get your gum at the right consistency. It gets harder as it cools down after you have blown a bubble. Warm it up to become softer by chewing it further. At the correct consistency, you can effortlessly push your tongue through the gum and fill the pocket with air to blow your bubble.

If you want to blow the biggest bubbles possible, be careful and blow slowly. Use slow even breaths, this gives your gum time to stretch and grow, but also keeps even pressure on the gum to keep it from sagging. Don't tighten your lips around the bubble like you just sucked on a lemon, this will force you to blow harder and pop your bubble. Instead keep your mouth open so you inflate the bubble through a larger hole.

A champion is not born without practice. Then again, in order to blow really big and impressive bubbles, you also need a strong jaw, tongue and diaphragm. You should try out all the tips mentioned above and see which combinations work best for you. It is more fun, which is the main thing, if you can practice and compete with your friends.

So, do what it takes to remember to eat often. 2. Drink Green Tea Green tea extract when combined with caffeine, increases energy expenditure (calories burned).

Home Remedies For Acid Reflux Disease - From Gum to Apple Cider Vinegar

There are many people who suffer the effects of acid reflux disease, a disorder in which the contents of the stomach including gastric acids are regurgitated back up into the esophagus and throat. Those who suffer from its effects know the symptoms well; heartburn, pain or burning in the throat, bitter taste at the back of the throat, difficulty swallowing, chronic cough, and hoarseness caused by damage to the larynx. Fortunately for most people simple home remedies for acid reflux The disease can usually get under control.

Many people mistakenly think that the acid reflux, GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is caused by the production of stomach acid too. While stomach acid is the main cause of the symptoms experienced by the earth will be back into the esophagus is the failure of 3 specific points in the esophagus, the anti-reflux barrier, the lower esophageal sphincter and the gastroesophageal valve. If any of these three barriers is weakened or notacid has the opportunity to move back up the esophagus.

Probably the best home remedy to keep acid reflux at bay is eating a healthy diet that minimizes the production of stomach acid. One way to find out which foods make the symptoms worse is to keep a food log for a few weeks. Keep track of which foods set off the acid reflux and then it becomes easier to avoid them, or at least eat them in moderation. This list can vary from person to person but there are some foods that are known to cause acid reflux symptoms in the majority of its sufferers. These include fatty foods, spicy foods, certain spices, some citrus fruits, and caffeine.

One of the more unknown remedies for acid reflux is apple cider vinegar. In addition to treating GERD apple cider vinegar is also rumored to help with weight loss, acne, cholesterol, constipation, and heartburn. It is believed that the acidity of the vinegar mimics the acid in your stomach helping to more easily digest the food that has been eaten. The best way to take apple cider vinegar is just before or with your meal. One tablespoon mixed with water works best but make sure to use the organic variety, which still has the enzymes in it.

There are also certain fruits and vegetables that have a calming effect on the stomach can help control the symptoms of acid reflux. These include bananas, apples, figs, pineapple and papaya along with carrots and cabbage. Cinnamon, cardamom, mace, nutmeg, and slippery elm are a some herbs and spices, which also contribute to the effects of GERD.

Coffee Dangers and Preventative Measures - Teeth-Whitening and Breath Control

Coffee is the most widely abused addictive substance in the world. After only a few weeks of drinking it, the human brain forms an addiction to the caffeine that it contains, and sooner than you would like to admit, you find yourself unable to go a day without it. Besides being addictive, there is nothing physically wrong with coffee, in fact new studies indicate that consuming upwards of six cups (that's right, six cups) each day may actually add years to your life. However, there are a few social issues to worry about when indulging in this beverage, not the least of which is the damage that it does to your breath and the whiteness of your teeth.

After a single cup of coffee, you will find that your breath smells considerably worse than it had just a few minutes prior. This is because this hot beverage is extremely potent. Business meetings, dates, outings with friends, can be ruined by the terrible breath that this substance creates. Additionally, it stains the teeth an unattractive shade of brown. You may be addicted to caffeine, but you need to be conscious of what coffee can do to your appearance and to your breath. There are two ways of reacting to these problems.

First, we address bad-breath. The best advice is to avoid drinking coffee if you are going to be in close proximity to someone right after you have finished your cup. No matter how well you cover up the smell, someone sitting right next to you, or worse, someone you are kissing, will notice the unmistakable smell. Your best bet is to allow for at least 15 minutes of time before you go into a social event where you might be self-conscious of the smell of your breath. The second aspect you should consider is breath control. Try bringing along mouthwash or gum to social events where you know that you will need to be drinking coffee but will not have the luxury of a buffer period.

Secondly, we tackle stained teeth. Brushing alone often cannot repair the damage done by massive amounts of coffee drinking. There are several products on the market that claim to speed up the whitening process and they should all be considered for their strengths and weaknesses. For example, teeth-whitening gum products and mouthwashes are inexpensive and low maintenance, but are not efficient or guaranteed to produce the results you want. If you have your mind set on correcting your stained teeth, invest in a teeth-whitening procedure. Teeth-whitening has become a socially acceptable alternative to months of brushing and anxiety, your real decision should be whether or not you feel it is cost effective. Often, if you are in need of a quick, permanent fix, the teeth-whitening procedure can aid in correcting the unsightly appearance that is affecting your teeth.

Coffee is an excellent stimulant and is superb for focusing and directing the mind. If you are an avid drinker of this beverage, you need to be aware of the social dangers posed by your habit. Keep your breath and your teeth in check by choosing defense tactics that fit your lifestyle.

Green Tea - A Low Cost Dietary Supplement

So many of us are looking to lose weight on a regular basis but did you know that drinking can help?

More the better when that drink is green tea, for this herbal remedy is packed full with anti oxidants and other elements that help you lose weight by increasing your metabolism.

Easy to substitute for your usual cups of coffee during the day, green tea has many advantages and health benefits to offer you.

The Positive Benefits

Green tea is high in antioxidants and also contains caffeine.

The antioxidants are particularly of interest to those dieters taking a lot of exercise. You may have heard the term 'free radicals' and wondered what it refers to.

Well free radicals are produced as a by product of ordinary metabolism. Free radical production increases in frequency the more exercise you do. The problem is that free radicals are very damaging to the cell structure of your body and can affect the health of all parts.

Antioxidents help to protect your body from free radical damage by deactivating them and making them harmless. But that is not all that antioxidents do, studies have also shown they have a role to play in protecting you from heart disease, cancer and strokes.

It has been reported that green tea inhibits the unnatural formation of blood clots, some of which have been known to cause thombrosis, which is one of the leading causes of heart attacks and strokes.

It is the caffeine content which helps to raise the level of your metabolism which also helps you to lose weight.

That is quite a list of benefits from a simple cup of green tea.

Like all good things though there is also a negative factor, this is the fact that green tea contains caffeine, and high doses of caffeine can be rather unhealthy for your body.

However, the caffeine count is substantially lower than that found in an average cup of coffee, and when you factor in as well all of the advantages, they far outweigh that of the disadvantages.

Available Formats

Green tea is available in the usual forms of tea leaves or tea bags to which you just add hot water.

However, due to its rising popularity it is now available in so many other forms. You can tryit as an extract, popular as a weight reduction supplement, tablet form, gum, ice cream, an iced version and there are even green tea patches.

Popular for centuries in the Far East, the health giving properties of this simple plant are being recognized more and more in the West.

4 Popular Green Tea Products Available Today

Did you know that green tea is becoming one of the most demanded forms of dietary supplement today?

Not everybody enjoys the taste of green tea in fact it can be an acquired taste to some.

Fully aware of this the health industry has developed a number of green tea products that can make getting your daily dose of green tea that much easier.

Green Tea Extract

This one is for you if you are looking for a concentrated green tea product that offers you a more potent amount of the antioxidants and other nutrients that green tea is known for.

Green tea extract usually comes in a concentrated liquid form. This can be added to everything from drinks, to bread, to a relaxing bath.

It is a very versatile green tea product, but some would consider the taste of it a little too strong, so be sure to dilute it with each use.

Green Tea Diet Pills

Probably the most popular of uses for green tea is that of a diet pill.

It has been shown in a number of medical studies that certain properties of green tea can aid the body in burning more calories, and therefore aid in weight loss.

If you are one of those people who has neither the time nor inclination to drink a cup of green tea during the day, green tea diet pills might be a great alternative.

Green Tea Gum

Did you know there is even a green tea flavored chewing gum?

This would be a great choice for people who regularly chew gum. Why not gain some valuable health benefits while you chew?

Green tea gum can usually be found in the dietary aid aisle of your local grocery store, or perhaps behind the counter at your local health food supplier.

For people who don't really enjoy the taste of green tea, this product is often infused with other flavors such as mint or even strawberry.

Of course, for those out there that want the convenience of green tea gum, but enjoy a harder form of candy, there is an alternative tea product. Green tea mints offer a great way to slowly ingest the beneficial properties of green tea.

Remember, these are but a few of the different types of green tea product available today.

Be sure to ask your pharmacist for what he or she recommends, and don't be afraid to do a little bit of research on your own into these types of products. You'll be glad you did.

Caffeine Mints, Gum and What-Have-You

It used to be that if you wanted a caffeine rush, you had to either brew up a pot of coffee or buy a six pack of soft drinks. Times change. Now if you want caffeine and the energy rush associated with it, you can eat or chew your way there.

Do you prefer mints? Gum? Chocolate candy? Doesn't matter, really; caffeine can be brought to your bloodstream courtesy of any of the above. One may be tempted to ask the obvious. Why? Why are companies putting out caffeinated candies and candy-type products when caffeine is so readily available at your local convenience store courtesy of the Coca-Cola and Pepsi bottling companies? It's not a bad question. But the most obvious answer probably isn't what you were looking for. Money. Profits. You can get soft drinks via candy, or at least you used to be able to. So why not the benefits of soda in a gum?

Jolt Cola asked themselves that question and the answer is provided in the form of Jolt Caffeine Energy Gum. The package even claims to have identical ingredients to their famous (infamous?) soft drink, although the gum features minty flavorings not associated with the cola. Each little tab of gum contains as much caffeine as a cup of coffee. Among those on this big wide world we like to collectively call the internet who have published reviews of this product, it gets high marks not only for its ability to give one an energy boost, but also as a darn fine piece of gum.

Caffeinated mints offer more of a choice. Foosh Energy Mints are probably the most hyped. These mints are notable not only for the interesting atom design engraved into them, but also their size. These are some serious mints! And they contain serious caffeine as well. In fact, each mint has 25% more caffeine than is found in a single can of Red Bull.

If Foosh doesn't do it for you, there's always Penguin Mints, which claims to be the original caffeinated mint. Then there's XTZ Mints. And if that weren't enough, XTS also makes a chocolate mint with a caffeine rush.

Now caffeine and chocolate have gone hand in hand since way back. Any chocolate bar worth its weight is going to provide a little caffeine rush, but this is the 21st century and we need more than just a little boost. If you like chocolate and caffeine, but don't care for mint, there's always Buzz Bites. These are chocolate chew candies that promise an energy boost. They've got pretty much the same energy-inducing ingredients as the typical energy drink, but in candy form. Reports are that it's the candy part that suffers, but better to taste for yourself before making any decision.

An alternative to Buzz Bites that takes caffeinated chocolates to a whole new level is Caffeinated Chocolate Truffles. Sporting 150mg of caffeine per truffle, you can feel like a rich energy vampire when eating these.

Clearly, caffeine has moved into a new arena. And these candies and gums are just the beginning. It's not hard to predict that soon there will be caffeinated versions of just about everything: caffeinated meat, caffeinated vegetables, who knows where it will end. Is there anything wrong with this? Probably not. Although candy and gum are popular with the little ones so as a parent you should probably take care to store these where they can't be reached by curious children. And, of course, they shouldn't be treated as regular candy or gum. Just as you probably wouldn't down a whole six pack of soda in a sitting, don't be tempted to go through a pack of Jolt Gum in a sitting, either.
