| She explained that our immune system has to work overtime to try and fight all that bacteria off. "Don't take this personally… but your doctor is right – your immune system responds slower as you age. This could be contributing to why you're always feeling so sick", she said. I was stunned! We've been sticking toothbrushes with 100 MILLION bacteria cells in our mouths twice a day like clockwork?! I did some research of my own to learn more and I found out that tooth decay is one of the most PREVALENT chronic diseases in seniors… even though it's largely preventable. I also found that seniors with gum disease could be nearly NINE TIMES more likely to die of a non-related virus or infection than people without dental problems. So, if we have to brush our teeth to prevent gum disease… but our toothbrushes are swimming with bacteria that make our already-slower immune systems work even harder to keep us healthy… What are we seniors supposed to do?! Luckily, my daughter had the solution to my germ problem. She recommended we try a new all-natural toothbrush sterilizer. It's called Bril, and it's a UV sterilizing toothbrush case that disinfects your toothbrush and kills 99.9% of bacteria with ultraviolet LED technology. You just place your toothbrush inside the case… |
