Wow, 1 answer I'll keep it simple, believe me this is for your health. Heart attacks-AMI's-are caused by BACTERIA!!!Doh Over 90% of AMI's are caused by the same bacteria that cause cavities in your teeth, with the remainder being congenital (present at birth). In short, "strep throat" is the leading cause, along with improper dental hygiene
These same bacteria are the leading causes of kidney, lung, and liver diseases. When left untreated they colonize the inner workings of your body, resulting in damage. So what you've been told your whole life about "cleanliness is next to Godliness" is very true

OR "an antibiotic a day, keeps the doctor away?" NO
Take care of your teeth, wash your hands, and don't let a little "sore throat" be the end of you. We all have different immune systems, some people are victims while others are carriers. This one will have you looking at your buddies teeth huh?
