Poor dental health may increase the risk of a bacterial infection in the blood stream, which may affect the heart valves. Oral health may be particularly important if you have artificial heart valves.Tooth loss patterns are connected to coronary artery disease.There is a connection between diabetes and cardiovascular disease and evidence that people with diabetes benefit from periodontal treatment.

"We’re writing with good news. From 1 July, the government’s changes to single-use plastic carrier bags come into effect, which we think is great!
We (and the environment!) love when you bring your reusable bags when you shop with us, but know that sometimes you’ll forget or get caught short.
That’s why at checkouts we’re replacing our Use Me Again bags with paper bags in-store from 1 July. Our 20c paper bags are made with sustainably sourced paper from Forest Stewardship Council certified forests, and are 100% recyclable. Or choose our $1 Bag for Good. Wear it out, bring it back and we’ll replace it for FREE!
You’ve already shown how committed you are to helping protect the environment. Thanks for your support as we make even more changes for the better.
Regards,
The team at Countdown"
Just an observation, the Warehouse use fully compostable bags and they cost 15 cents - it used to be 10 cents for plastic ones. The compostable bags can be used for a lot longer than the paper bags (which rip so easily).
So why would Countdown charge 20 cents for a paper bag?
I love paper bags but to charge 20 cents for them, when previously when we were all using plastic bags with our groceries, they didn't charge us at all - well not until it became a serious Eco issue, then they charged us.

Potato fritters & chips from THE TASTE OF ORIENT Lincoln Road Henderson. Who knows when they last changed their oil. The food was disgusting we could not eat it & after a few bites we have a fowl oil taste left in our mouths. The food looked dark. The fish inside was even dark. I phone them & she said I just cook it when you come in it not over cook. No one ever complained. She could not understand I was COMPLAINING I ended up hanging up on her she couldn’t have given a dam. Will never go anywhere near there again.

What do you think, is this fair? Will you still use Uber Eats when the surcharge applies?

While standing at the checkout at the store, the young cashier suggested to the much older lady that she should bring her own grocery bags, because plastic bags are not good for the environment.
The woman apologised to the young girl and explained, "We didn't have this 'green thing' back in my earlier days."
The young checkout operator responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations."
The older lady said that she was right our generation didn't have the "green thing" in its day. The older lady went on to explain.
“Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilised and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled. But we didn't have the "green thing" back in our day.
Grocery stores bagged our groceries in brown paper bags that we reused for numerous things. Most memorable besides household rubbish bags was the use of brown paper bags as book covers for our school books. This was to ensure that public property (the books provided for our use by the school) was not defaced by our scribblings. Then we were able to personalise our books on the brown paper bags. But, too bad we didn't do the "green thing" back then.
We walked up stairs because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go a few streets away. But she was right. We didn't have the "green thing" in our day.
Back then we washed the baby's nappies because we didn't have the throw away kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy gobbling machine burning up 220 volts. Wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand new clothing. But that young lady is right; we didn't have the "green thing" back in our day.
Back then we had one TV, or radio, in the house not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of Auckland. In the kitchen we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us.
When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap.
Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn petrol just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power.
We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity. But she's right; we didn't have the "green thing" back then.
We drank from a water fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blade in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull. But we didn't have the "green thing" back then.
Back then, people shared a car ride or took a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their mothers into a 24-hour taxi service in the family's $60,000 SUV or van, which cost what a whole house did before the "green thing."
We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerised gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 100 kilometres out in space in order to find the nearest burger joint.
But isn't it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the "green thing" back then?
We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to piss us off … especially from a tattooed, multiple pierced smart ass who is incapable of working out how much change to give without the cash register telling them how much!
