You have zero plaque when you go to the dentist?

I do clean my teeth two times a day, and floss regularly. That doesn’t totally stop the plaque from building up though. Everybody’s biology is a bit different
I get a cleaning every 4 months but my insurance only covers every 6 months, so I pay for one out of pocket. I go to a very good dentist, and they only charge $170 for a cleaning

News@lemmy.world•Kennedy and influencers bash seed oils, baffling nutrition scientists
301·9 months agoYou’re right, “food influencers” and the “Manosphere” at large have been spouting nonsense about plant oils for a long time. That realm is rife with pseudoscience from people who think you don’t eat enough meat and that eating vegetables makes you weak. They try to sell strength to people by speaking confidently about being strong while also making shit up and lying about it.

61·2 years agoThe superdelegate system that caused very real controversy in 2016 was changed after that. Superdelegates no longer get to vote in the first round, so they only influence the outcome if there’s a contested convention. I believe they also decreased how many superdelegates there are

4·2 years agoThe right has started to eat itself alive. Only the most “ideologically pure” remain, and ideological purity in MAGA terms means not trusting anything except whatever they make up in the moment, which leads them to not trust each other. This is making it really difficult for them to agree on much of anything, which is why they have no political platform and do nothing except obstruct

World News@lemmy.ml•Iran tells US to ‘step aside’ as it readies response to Israel over Syria strike

World News@lemmy.ml•Iran tells US to ‘step aside’ as it readies response to Israel over Syria strike
56·2 years agoYou’ll notice only the last seven words are actually a quote. Almost certainly this is a mashup of expressing concern that Iran will attack Israel and a statement that US intelligence thinks Iran would choose military targets.

Definitely this, you can drink H2O no problem, but H2O2 and you’re going to have a bad time. And yes, probably no need to have brominated vegetable oil in our food at all.
Some popular drinks that contain BVO include Gatorade, Mountain Dew, Fanta Orange, Fresca, Squirt, Sunkist Pineapple, and some flavors of Powerade.
Yeah all of these are killing you with sugar, too

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•The Disney media empire continues to expand.
11·2 years agoDisney already owned well over 50% of Hulu, many of their shows on there are already on Disney+ outside the US. IMO this is nothing like Disney buying Star Wars or Marvel or ESPN or Fox.
Here’s a list of companies that Disney created shortly before the buyout was confirmed.
Those are companies that Disney has acquired over decades, they didn’t create any of them



That sounds great for you. I switched to 3/year last year after trying everything else to reduce the amount of plaque developing between visits without success. I don’t get why you feel the need to shit on someone for that
