HEALTH: ALTERNATIVE WAY TO BRIGHTEN YOUR TEETH

Alternative Way to Brighten your Teeth: ACTIVATED CHARCOAL

I was lucky to try this new product for whitening and brightening teeth. Based in ancient conceptions and basic knowledge there are an array of natural products used for different purposes regarding our health. 
In modern times we turn to brand products filled with chemicals that may be potential risky to our health and deteriorate the enamel in our teeth. We think it is convenient, but if you have tried the trays that need to be heated, molded and then apply the bleaching agent, you'll know that is not an easy task.
Setting this as base, I prefer a more natural approach that may look too simple to be true. In this case I tried the Activated Coconut Charcoal Powder, it is a black powder (of-course) that you apply a small amount to a soft tooth brush and gently massage the teeth for about two minutes. This  polishes the teeth giving a shinny pearl like look (in my case). 
I have used it for a few days an can see a difference. The first time I used a larger amount and I got mouth, hands and the sink all black (LOL), now I know the exact amount needed and it washes off easy. 
I think this is a great solution to a better smile.

Note: this product is not harmful in any way, but always ask a healthcare provider if this is right for you.

Here is a piece found in WebMD about Activated Charcoal.

Common charcoal is made from peat, coal, wood, coconut shell, or petroleum. “Activated charcoal” is similar to common charcoal, but is made especially for use as a medicine. To make activated charcoal, manufacturers heat common charcoal in the presence of a gas that causes the charcoal to develop lots of internal spaces or “pores.” These pores help activated charcoal “trap” chemicals.


Activated charcoal is used to treat poisonings, reduce intestinal gas (flatulence), lower cholesterol levels, prevent hangover, and treat bile flow problems (cholestasis) during pregnancy.

How does it work?

Activated charcoal is good at trapping chemicals and prevents their absorption.

Shiatsu Deep Kneading Massage Pillow with Heat

Shiatsu Deep Kneading Massage Pillow with Heat http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AFLDIRK Got this massage pillow and was a bit skeptic about it. I’ve had shiatsu massage and couldn’t think a cushion will provide the exact pressure. I have really tight muscles in my shoulders due to stress and the knots are very hard, it is like a big lump in my back. This massage system is just awesome. The pillow contains four rotating balls, two in each side, that are big enough to simulate a deep elbow massage, and the feeling is very relaxing. You can increase the pressure by pulling yourself closer to the pillow. It has a heating system and two rotation settings.  It comes with a strap to adjust the position on a chair and an extra cord for using it on a vehicle. After using it I feel more relaxed and my shoulders are less stressed. Note: I received this product free or highly discounted for review and an honest and un-biased opinion.

HOME: CERAMIC HEATER & TOWER FAN

Dual Zone Oscillating Ceramic Heater and Tower Fan with Adjustable Thermostat and Remote Control Love this! This heater performs great and looks fantastic as it blends with the decor and it doesn't take too much space. The oscillating feature is one of my favorite since it warms up much quicker and the heat wave cover more space. My apartment heating system doesn't warm up every room evenly so this is perfect for the one that is always cold and in cases of exposure to low temps, this is definitely a life saver.
