Kimchi, pickles, yogurt, sauerkraut, and kefir are the fermented foods that make our digestive system strong. The healthy bacteria are also known as probiotics in these foods stay in our gut. These bacteria fight and kill the pathogens that make their way into our bodies from the food we eat.

For a natural smile don’t say cheese when taking photos or force a smile when meeting someone. A neutral face is better than a fake smile.

Litter can destroy soil and its ability to grow new plants because when the chemicals such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and dioxin from various products seep into the ground, they can lower protein concentration and expression of the soil.
