1. Keep a log of what you eat, including chewing gum and candy, for seven days.

2. Compare this to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s food pyramid and learn to balance your diet.

3. Cut down on snacks to limit acid attacks on your teeth.

4. Reduce consumption of sugar, which leads to tooth decay

5. Opt for sugar-free candy, breath mints and cough drops

6. Eat fruits, such as strawberries, pears or plums, which contain xylitol. Xylitol is a 5-carbon sugar that slows down the production of plaque.

7. Eat teeth-friendly foods such as cheese and peanuts.

    Holidays typically involve a certain amount of discretionary spending in celebration of that holiday, and Halloween spending is already beginning! Halloween spending includes setting up hayrides, mazes, haunted houses, and popular Halloween costumes. Halloween also means more candy and Pepto Bismol to go with it. This year, Michael Jackson costumes are already selling at a record pace, and lots of people will be out there with Thriller costumes. Halloween is fast rising as one of the biggest spending holidays. People are even dressing up their pets for Halloween – who doesn't love an insipid and annoying Chihuahua in a tutu? There will be plenty of Halloween spending of short term loans, never look for unlicensed lenders just to have cool costumes and events for sure this year.
