Sonic toothbrushes have been around for a while now, and if you own one, you know they work really well at shaking loose stains and keeping your mouth very clean. Philips now bring us this new device which blasts a combination of air and water or mouthwash between your teeth to act as a floss.

This special technology enables you to clean your mouth in just sixty seconds, using only a few teaspoons of water. This is great for people who have a hard time flossing their back teeth or who have dental equipment to work around.

Indian Coleus

Herbs and supplements are big business. These things aren’t cure-alls, but they do provide some help without the side effects of allopathic (prescription) medication. Take this little devil. The Indian Coleus plant, coleus forshkohlii, has been shown to have a remarkable breadth of benefits. A sample of them include:

Inhibition of the development of certain kinds of cancer.

Lowers blood pressure.

Increases skin resistance to sunlight, and aids in tanning.

Reduces urinary tract infections.

Lowers blood sugar levels.

Helps control cholesterol levels.

Aids general eye health and helps glaucoma.

Increases testosterone production in men– which can help weight loss, erectile dysfunction, and muscle development.

Who wouldn’t like all that? Either you’re old and need help with blood pressure or you’re young and need the big muscles and good skin. It’s a win all around.
