Did You Know?

A fun feature of this blog is going to be a section called "Did You Know?" which will give interesting facts on common health concerns and unusual but effective treatments. For example, did you know that a persistent toothache requiring capping of the tooth sometimes can be cured by gargling with coconut oil for twenty minutes a day until the pain is gone? Yes! This is because the cause is often a nitrogen bubble below the gums and the coconut oil can get in and dissolve the bubble, or absess.
