What Do Denturists Do?
Denturists help those who are missing some or all of their natural teeth. They design, repair, reline, and make removable dental appliances. Your denturist will collaborate with you, your family, and other healthcare professionals to promote and maintain your oral health.
When making a set of dentures, the objectives are:
• supporting and protecting your gums and the bones in your mouth;
• enhancing your face and holding your jaws the proper distance apart;
• carefully choosing individual teeth to match what you already have; and
• allowing you to speak clearly and chew without stress.
Integrated Energy Therapy (Part II)
IET is a gentle touch therapy that uses violet angelic energy rays to work directly on your 12-strand spiritual DNA. It focuses on the primary emotional causes of energy blockages: guilt, distrust, shame, threat, “shoulds”, heartache and betrayal, anger and resentment, and fear. During a session, these suppressed energies are released and blockages are cleared from the physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual energy field. During the integration process, the cellular memory area is filled with the empowerment energies: innocence, trust, spiritual pride, support, freedom, love, forgiveness, ease, and safety.
Vitamin C and Brain Health
Vitamin C is essential for brain health. However, only an extremely small portion of the nutrient’s molecules ingested are conveyed into the organ. In 2014, biochemists in South Korea found high-dose vitamin C supplementation reduces amyloid plaque burden and ameliorates pathological changes in the brains of mice with genetically engineered Alzheimer’s disease. If you want to get more vitamin C accumulated in your brain, do high-dose supplementation or take regular vitamin C supplements. The latter method is likely better, as high-dose supplementation can cause adverse effects, according to some medical researchers.
Hearing Loss and Depression
Research continues to prove a strong connection between hearing loss and depression. The two are referred to as invisible conditions, as you cannot see their effects at first glance. Because of this, their effects can often go unacknowledged, unrecognized, and untreated. Hearing loss affects one’s ability to communicate, which can cause stress, fatigue, social isolation, and, in turn, depression. Along with depression, clients with untreated hearing loss are known to experience anxiety, relationship problems, low self-esteem, stress, and other negative emotions. However, hearing aids have been found to help combat these issues.

Tips for Increasing Bone Density
As you may or may not know, as you age your bones become thinner and their density decreases. This can make you more susceptible to injury. There are numerous things that you can do to slow down this process, such as with a proper diet and exercise. Eating calcium-rich foods, such as dairy products, leafy vegetables, fish with bones, and legumes, can help. Exercises that are load or weight bearing, such as walking, jogging, elliptical machines, and dancing, also can aid in building bone density. Be sure to consult your doctor first before beginning any exercise programs!
