In case you’re wondering, this is called WATER FLOSSER.

As you can see in the video, it’s shooting out water at different levels of pressure.

It is used to clean the spaces between the teeth.

As the water is being pushed out, it goes into the space between two teeth and flushes out any dirt or food particle that might have gotten stuck in there.

It is very effective and is one of the best tools for keeping your mouth clean.

Instead of using toothpicks that eventually damage the teeth, you should use this or the thread floss. 👍🏾

Is it really possible that a doctor will tell a pregnant woman not to bother about using malaria prevention medication? Worse still, tell a pregnant woman who has been diagnosed with malaria that it is not necessary to malaria medication. To just focus on routine drugs

AFRICAN STAR APPLE: LEARNTHE HEALTH BENEFIT

Every year, it starts almost the same way. One day, you’re driving past a roadside fruit seller, from work and minding your business, and then you hear it😂


“Buy your sweet Udara! If not Nwanu, don't buy it! Your sweet Udara here!

Well, you know better than to trust most of them😂 But nostalgia grabs you by your throat and your thirst buds are giving you bombastic side eyes for wanting to walk away.

This minute, you were trying to price, the next minute, seeds are dropping to the ground already.

Guess who is home with a black nylon bag filled with Agbalumo😅

Don't know about you, but I like it when we are in the season especially because of how the sellers hype this fruit.

Today let's look beyond the taste and see the health benefits of Udara.

CAUSES OF CONSTANT JOINT PAIN AND WHAT YOU CAN DO

Joint pain can be very frustrating, be it a dull ache, stiffness, or even sharp discomfort that makes it difficult to move with ease.

One of the things people make out of it is that it usually comes from old age.

However, that's not always the case.

Anyone can experience joint pain as a result of some injuries, inflammation, infections, autoimmune diseases, or even lifestyle choices.

So, what’s the way out? Let’s break it down:

Come with me👇

Imagine standing next to someone when suddenly, they collapse, their body stiffens, and they start shaking uncontrollably.

What would you do? Panic? Hold them down? Try to put something in their mouth? If so, you might unknowingly be putting them in more danger.

Yes the Penis can "Fracture" i guess that word is a Misnomer.

The Penis contains a Foam like tissue called "Corpora cavernosa" when you get aroused, Blood flows inside this foam and it gets hard and you get erect

This "Foam" is covered by another lining called " Tunica albuginea. Think of it like a Wrapper covering your Penis

When the Penis is erect and hard,any forceful trauma or sheer force can tear this wrapper .
That tear is what is called a Fracture

I agree most people think Fracture is only for Bones, even though the Penis has no Bones

Start paying attention to your hands like you do for your face. Your skin will thank you for it.👍

[FavMedic @FavMedic]

🚨Don't forget your hands in your skincare routines.🫳

We are usually more focused on our faces but did you know that your hands are one of the first places to show signs of aging. 

They age faster than the face, yet they are often neglected.

Why do they age faster?

[FavMedic @FavMedic]

✅️Stop smoking:

Smoking is known to cause premature wrinkling and skin aging. Smoking affects the elastic fibres in you skin which keeps it plump, firm and young looking.

You develop deeper wrinkles, saggy skin and change in your pigmentation the more you smoke.

[FavMedic @FavMedic]

✅️Use sunscreen:

We all know about the two finger rule for face. But the hands are rarely mentioned. Your hands are also exposed to the sun.  Use a sunscreen on your hands, atleast SPF 30, it will protect them from photo aging. The earlier you start, the better.
