TAKE ACTIONS, STOP BLAIMING THE GOVERNMENT!

Today i went to do a small shopping at Kariakoo (Dar es Salaam). As I was passing at "FAYA" bus station, i saw some little kids begging the passengers.I dont like to call them street kids/children since street has never bore children!
Not only at FAYA, there are many streets in Tanzania you can find them. The situation can not be left to continue as if it pleases us. We have to stop blaiming the government and take ACTIONS. If these kids are left staying in the street,TOMORROW they will become arm rober, victims of substance abuse (drugs pushers, drug users), prostitutes and so and so and so..... In shot they are a time bomb... waiting to explode!
ME AND YOU can change this. I will do a little research to find out if it is possible to make a ''STREET KID,PHARMACIST''
May God Give Me Strength, I pray.
Amen!

HEALTH TIPS....STAY HEALTHY....

ORAL HYGINE
Are Your White Teeth White?
How Do You Brush Your Teeth?
Many people suffer from dental problems caused mainly by bacteria infection due to prolonged accumulation of food deposits on the teeth and on the space between teeth. Regular checking and proper cleaning of teeth will prevent the white deposit on the teeth (and on tongue) and decaying of teeth due to bacterial infection. This will also help to prevent bad smell (halitosis) from the mouth.
Good selection of toothpaste and toothbrush will help to keep your teeth shine and prevent cavities. Many people over use their toothbrushes. It is advice not to use the toothbrush for more than 3 months. There some tooth brushes with the filaments colored at the middle. You should not use the brush till that color fades off.
There are scented mouthwash and chewing gums available in the martket to keep the mouth clean and give a fresh breath. Hydrogen peroxide 3% mouthwash is also good for such purpose but it is not recomended for sensitive teeth.
We normally brush our teeth twice a day: in the morning and in the evening, the time when we want to rush to school or to work or to go to bed. Most of people do not have enough time to inspect and clean their teeth thoroughly because they are in hurry! Prolonged improper cleaning of teeth will cause accumulation of whitish matter on the teeth which later turns yellowish or blackish.
There are some drinks example juice, coffee and tea which stain our teeth black or yellow. It is advice to brush teeth soon after taking these drinks. Unfortunately, we brush teeth first and then take tea or coffee later!! It should be the opposite....
To make your teeth and mouth clean and shine, do the following.
1. Make regular inspection of your mouth and concentrate more on the areas seen not clean
2. Use the proper toothpaste and toothbrush.. Do not overuse the toothbrush... have at least two toothbrushes at home to be used soon when one is to be replaced (i prefer to use hard toothbush like oral B plus regular 40, medium C)
3. Do not use the toothbrush whose filaments have bent
4. Clean the space between the teeth with a dental floss
5. If you have a decayed or paining teeth stop using the pain killers and see the dentist immediately 
6. Spend atleast 10 to 15 minutes to clean your teeth and concentrate while cleaning. (Do not do another activity while brushing your teeth)
7. See a dentist at least once in a year for general check up of your oral hygiene
