United States: Gum disease and diabetes are connected and can make each other worse, experts say. Dr. Anton Sculean, who is basically a gum disease expert, explains that diabetes is not only a risk for gum disease, but gum disease which can also make diabetes harder to control. This means that both problems can feed off each other, which can make in turn your health worse.
In other words, if you have one of these conditions, you are actually more likely to get the other. Taking care of your teeth and maintaining diabetes which is really important to stay healthy!
The post went on to state: “Earlier this afternoon a citizen phoned the on-duty Deputy to tell him that he had a folded one-dollar bill in his yard. When they opened it, a powdery, off-white color material came out. The bill was seized and was positively tested for Methamphetamine in the field test. Additional field tests on Opiates and Fentanyl were as well negative.
The post ended as follows, “One has to be on the lookout for any signs of danger in an environment.
As reported by the HealthDay, if you find yourself wondering it was only one time, it was not. Other police departments have shared similar incidents and have cautioned people about the risks to deal with Fentanyl.
They aren’t the only ones; the Drug Enforcement Administration issued a similar warning back in 2016 that says, “Fentanyl can be ingested through the skin or skin contact as well as inadvertent breath through airborne powder.
Fentanyl is a substance through which one can absorb when merely handling the substance, during enforcement activity, or when field testing the substance. Health effects include disorientation, coughing, sedation, respiratory distress, or cardiac arrest, all of which manifest very rapidly and are severe in nature, commonly within minutes of exposure. Three years later, in fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention put out a similar alert.
Despite all those warnings, it is worth pointing out that, as per the American College of Medical Toxicology and the American Academy of Clinical Toxicology, those warnings are not fully true, and it is virtually impossible to have any adverse effect from the exposure to Fentanyl. One research points out that they would need 200 minutes at very high levels of Fentanyl to breathe to get a reaction and that reaction would not be lethal.
In any case, you should still always remain cautious about any money you come across on the web – there is always a possibility that it is a scam.
