Low Carbs Cause Bad Breath, Flower Mound Dentistry Provider Explains
2010-09-04
Eating good foods and decreasing carbohydrate intake are good ways to take care of yourself. But, Flower Mound dentist Dr. Jonathan Golab notes that eliminating carbs can cause bad breath.
"Ketones are the problem," explains Dr. Golab, a Flower Mound teeth whitening provider. "When the body burns fat, instead of carbohydrates, for energy, it creates ketones. Eating primarily foods high in protein can also help produce smelly sulfur compounds in the mouth."
This type of bad breath isn't primarily a dental health problem, but you can improve the smell with a couple ...

New Florida Law Permits Device to Monitor Repeat DUI Offenders
2010-09-04
A new law will allow a person who has as many as four DUI convictions to regain their right to drive, but it also includes the requirement that an ignition interlock system be installed on the vehicle. The ignition interlock prevents the car from starting if the person attempting to drive has alcohol on their breath.
While the law will allow a person with four DUI convictions to get their license back, even anti-drunk driving organizations generally find this better than simply revoking the license, because the ignition interlock allows monitoring, and it is hoped, a ...

For what seemed like eons, the drivers license sanction for a third priorable ...
Options for Delivering a Baby After a C-section
2010-09-04
For nearly a generation, the majority of women who have had cesarean birth have been told by the medical establishment that any future births will also have to be C-sections. This advice was based primarily on the belief that a VBAC - vaginal birth after cesarean- might cause the scar from the previous cesarean to rupture. The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) now says that statistics show there is less than a 1% chance of the scar rupturing, so more women should be allowed to choose a VBAC rather than opting for a scheduled cesarean.This statistical ...

Examining the Life Cycle of Unpaid Debt
2010-09-04
There are many reasons why people in Arizona may need to explore legal remedies for unbearable debt. Medical expenses, job losses and escalating house payments due to adjustable rate mortgages are among the most prominent.

The one common denominator among all of these factors: debt has more lives than a cat, and you should never expect an obligation to simply disappear. When it does come back to haunt you, ...
Reports of Divorce Rate Increase: Acceptance of a New Economic Reality?
2010-09-04
Rates of divorce have declined in the last few years, and many family law practitioners have attributed the reduction in dissolutions to the economic challenges posed by the Great Recession. Even if a couple believes that a marriage will no longer work, they may accept the fact that maintaining two households in a time of economic uncertainty has not been a risk worth taking. Diminished real estate equity and uncertainty about jobs opportunities have left some spouses resigned to postponing legal solutions until they feel more secure.
But recent reports suggest that ...
