When it comes to food, I have a weak spot. I love food and hardly discriminate even though I often pay for it later. Whether it’s in weight gain or other forms of impact to my body – like impacting my teeth. I find this happening the most during the summer months when we are up at the cottage. I pretty much eat and drink anything and everything in sight. I (over) indulge whether it’s too much sweet food or acidic food, or just too much food in general. It’s not until I get back home that I realize what I have done to my health and wellness. Luckily, there are some things you can do to ensure that an occasional indulgence (or one that lasts a whole week) doesn’t impact your health in the long run.<\/p>\n

When it comes to my weight, I’ve found that it’s all about balance. These days I’m working out about four times a week and eating a balance of healthy food with the occasional indulgence. I off-set my cottage meals with high-protein food, increased vegetables and minimize the dairy, sugar and carb intake.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Some of my personal favourite foods, which include tomatoes, limes and grapes are very acidic. While delicious, they can weaken enamel and cause teeth to lose important minerals. I know that the right toothpaste makes all the difference. Specifically, baking soda, a natural ingredient, helps neutralize harmful plaque acids. Luckily, you can find baking soda in the following Arm & Hammer toothpastes<\/strong><\/a>;\u00a0Advance White, Complete Care and Pro Sensitive Whitening Paste.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Baking soda, helps to naturally restore these mineral levels so you can reap the long-term benefits of stronger, healthier teeth and gums. It also helps to safely whiten your teeth. That’s what I call a ‘win-win’! Together with the Arm & Hammer \u00a0Spinbrush Pro Plus Gum Health, battery powered toothbrush, which helps remove 2x more plaque along the gumline, you can be in control of keeping your teeth and gums healthy.<\/p>\n

So go on, eat that delicious food, without any guilt. Check out this delicious crispy baked eggplant with Parmesan recipe, developed by\u00a0celebrity nutritionist and healthy cooking expert, Keri Glassman. Try it out for yourself with the recipe below and put Arm & Hammer’s baking soda toothpastes to the test!<\/p>\n
