Floss Your Teeth = Long Life?

A number of recent studies connect life expectancy and teeth flossing. Nobody knows why this correlation exist. But, apparently, it does.

Most likely, the connection is a logical association: people who floss tend to be more health conscious and risk adverse than people who do not floss. If you are proactive enough to floss, you are probably getting a yearly physical, eating well, and doing other things to enjoy a long and quality life.

But, hey, just in case, why not pick up flossing your teeth? It can't hurt!
