Flossing To Lose Weight

I founds this little tips on the men's fitness website.  It says that flossing and brushing your teeth twice a day can help you lose weight.  And it is not just from the energy you exert by the physical act of brushing.

Floss twice a day.
When researchers in Brazil studied 13,000 people over a three-year period, they found that men with the highest levels of inflammatory agents in their body were also the most likely to gain weight. And periodontal disease, which is caused by poor oral health care, is one of the most common sources of inflammation. Brushing twice a day, flossing, and making regular trips to the dentist are the best ways to prevent the disease. Hate flossing? Studies show that a dose of Listerine may be just as effective at reducing levels of inflammatory bacteria within the mouth.

This is something easy that you should already be doing.  Try it out, it can't hurt.
