It doesn't depend only on your family situation. I am a PhD student working for the last 6 weeks from home without kids. And and also without a good income. I never expected my makeshift desk with the cheapest IKEA chair to become my work environment for 8+ hours per day, and I seriously worry about long-term injury resulting from this.
This isn't meant to diminish the difficulties of people who need to look after their children. But I work in a laboratory where the senior people blithely complain about how hard it is to manage shared child-raring duties in a well-equipped home office, while junior employees are more or less expected to magically have a productive home office in a shared flats, often in less-than-ideal environment (e.g. with noisy room-mates or building sites next door), with RSI staring us down.
The main point, about not washing, isn't standard dental advice and widely known, unless I'm mistaken. Personally, toothpaste tastes so bad I find it hard not to rinse without gagging.
Otherwise, the advice is direct and the writing style is of interest in itself. So many websites that provide health advice are condescending. This one is at least instead straightforward. For example, the points about fluoride concentration are not obvious and deserve a hearing. I say at least, because they should have references and make it transparent how these conclusions were arrived at.
This is a great comment. A lot of what OP says is pertinent to other poorly-defined chronic diseases too.
As a community, physicians and researchers are really not capable of dealing with such conditions right now. As a result, large numbers of suffering people end up neglected and you have, for example, patients with chronic fatigue syndrome using anti-retrovirals off-label on totally spurious grounds.
"Often overlooked" might be a better term. This seems to be well-known to biophysicists studying nucleic acids but doesn't trickle down to the genetics/biology side of things.
>And I'm not just talking about Western notation, either - the number-based notation that's in widespread use in East Asia is also highly intuitive and perhaps more so.
Do you have any more information about this? Fpr example, scores of Chinese music using the Indian/Arabic number system? I know that number notation is used as a mataphor for gamelan music—by westerers, which has caught on natively (although which might be frowned upon) for archival purposes, at least.
The number metaphor for tones clashes with the number metapor for the counting of beats, which is ubiquitous in Western music. But perhaps there are different metaphores in East-Asian music.
