Sugar impact article part 1

2/20/2018

0 Comments

 
Sugar Free February is nearly finished, and I am thrilled to see part one of my "mega-article" about the impact of sugar on both oral and overall well-being being published in Aesthetic Dentistry Today.


Expanding my knowledge and then sharing that insight with others is something that I really enjoy so it is hugely rewarding to me to find others wanting to be part of that.

A recent book, The Runaway Species (http://www.drchrisharper.co.uk/blog/book-review-the-runaway-species), sparked an interest In creative thinking. Here is a nice little article discussing how just going for a walk can be scientifically demonstrated to increase creative thinking.


If you have a sedentary job make time to walk for at least 60 seconds every hour. This will not only help prevent general health issues but will boost mental function.
And if you are struggling to find a creative solution to a tough problem then take a 10 minute walk outside and then come back to the problem.

Last week I had a bit of time to kill so I loaded the TED talks app on my surgery TV. One of the talks that caught my attention was by David Eagleman. He is a neuroscientist who’s name popped out at me because he has written a couple of books on my “to read” list about how the brain works.

So when I was deciding which audiobook to download next and I saw that he had just released a new book I thought that had to be my choice.
