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
301·1 年前You’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.

This graph absolutely does not show this lol…how could you possibly derive that from this graph
And sociologists are absolutely trained in statistics

643·2 年前I’d be really interested to see the specifics of how that data is collected, but also fucking duh recent college grads are underemployed. Also, having that degree sets people up for career advancement as they gain experience and that educational background becomes even more of a prerequisite for the jobs they’re moving into

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 年前Disney 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

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ finds empathy in memory | Engadget
12·3 年前It’s so good. I was a TNG & DS9 fan, but I just didn’t like Enterprise or Discovery, and I watched the first few episodes of Picard, but it was so dark and not like the others. SNW brings back the original Star Trek ethos, relentlessly optimistic and ethical with a realist streak, fantastic writing, great character development, and great special effects. They even have the traditional episode “types,” like a Klingon politics episode, a courtroom episode, and a fantasy episode. My point is I love it, and I hope the writers’/actors’ guilds get what they want soon so they can start filming season 3.
P.S. Fuck JJ Abrams
20 years ago before I had a wife, a child, pets, or a mortgage and when I had a simple job, I would destroy weeks at a time with some Final Fantasy 8. Logged obscene hours, unlocked every secret and beat every minigame, more than once. There’s just no time in my life now for a game requiring that kind of time commitment, but there’s always the memories

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
