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.

Premium Tea Gift Box Set-Sealed Pouches 17 TUMBLER http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Tea-Gift-Box-Pre-Portioned/dp/B01DG0KDC0/ I got this amazing set of teas with a tumbler as gift set and the presentation was amazing. This is a great gift for anyone living a healthy lifestyle, that loves yoga or be in tune with nature.  The tumbler is just amazing. It has double walls of crystal so the liquid can be hot or cold and it will not burn your hands also is great to avoid condensation that can damage furniture, wood or your car. Also, love the way the tumbler serves as a brewer, putting the tea leaves that are portioned with the exact amount needed in each sachet, and pour the hot water to make the tea. Is dishwasher safe and the lead and receptacle are stainless steel.  The teas are amazingly good and perfect for someone who loves traditional tea.

The Ozeri Gourmet Digital Kitchen Scale

The Ozeri Gourmet Digital Kitchen Scale Just received the package with the Ozeri Gourmet Digital Kitchen Scale and I am pleased to say that my husband, being a chef, really liked this scale. First it is very easy to handle and even if it’s digital it is pretty sturdy. Also it gives all of the measures and it was very easy to use. The screen also is digital and lights up making the reading much easier than the traditional gray screen with black numbers, we will definitely be looking for more products from Ozeri. The features I like best are the tare mode, temperature sensor, alarm, and the display can be used in the imperial or metric units. Note: I received this product free for review purposes and an un-biased opinion.

MeasuPro Ultra Quiet Handheld Electronic Tens Unit http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BYN8GBG I tried this tens unit on my shoulders that are in knots because of stress and the massage setting put at the lowest level worked wonders. Even if I felt sore after using it, which is normal. My husband loves it because it relaxes him. It works like the ones that therapists use and is compact for easy carry. Love that is easy to use and has specific buttons marked for the muscles you are going to use it on. The down side is that it comes with 4 electro pads and you have to replace them when they stop adhering to your skin, the good news is that it comes with an offer for an extra set.  Note: I received this product at a reduced price for an honest and un-biased opinion.  Specifications: Display: Liquid Crystal, with large backlit LCD screen.
