For me, it’s an electric toothbrush. It doesn’t matter if you go with Sonicare or Oral-B, once you start using an electric toothbrush, regular toothbrushes don’t ever feel like they clean your teeth properly. The smooth plaque-free top layer of your teeth that you can feel after using an electric toothbrush can’t be replicated with a regular toothbrush.

    A good watch, like a Citizen Exceed or a Casio G-Shock Square. Price/performance out of this world and will last you a lifetime.

        The panels typically offer both red and near infrared light. The biggest benefit for me which was a surprise benefit I had not even intended to address is my asthma. Specially the near infrared on my lungs has allowed me to stop all asthma medication that I took for over 45 years. It is super effective and there are research papers emerging that support.

          Thanks for your report. While looking for a daylight therapy panel I glanced over the reviews for red light panels and people were raving over them. Seems there is some truth to that. Congratulations for getting rid of your asthma. Know how that feels. Had pollen allergies through my whole teenage and young adult years which are completely gone now. I attribute starting running and exposing myself to that MFs.

    I disagree on the toothbrush. The problem is all the e waste. Everything else being equal I would love it and my wife won’t give it up but basically the manufacturers change and you can’t get heads that will work and you end up having to buy a new brush every few years which is almost worse with rechargeables.

      I have been using Quip toothbrushes for quite a few years now and they seem to be going pretty strong. Every quarter they send me a new brush head and battery and your toothbrush is covered under wareanty as long as you have you subscription. I have rwally liked it and there doesn’t seem to be much risk of their support ending.
