Gum disease has been shown to be a factor in heart disease and stroke and preterm birth weight. But now in a recent article Dr. Michael Roizen, who is a preventative gerontologist (studies human aging) says that most people know that diet, exercise, and ending smoking will reap health benefits. What also slows down or reverses aging is brushing and flossing your teeth every day! "It takes only a minute to floss Roizen says. It makes you up to 6.4 years younger because studies show that gum disease actually ages the immune and arterial systems." So if you want to stay healthy and younger your gums checked and teeth cleaned regularly.
