Why Everyone's Talking About 'The Odyssey's' Bizarre Popcorn Bucket New

Why Everyone's Talking About 'The Odyssey's' Bizarre Popcorn Bucket

Matt Damon stars as Odysseus "The Odyssey," written and directed by Christopher Nolan. Universal Pictures Movie theatres are horsing around with fans.Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” is coming to theaters on July 17, and to excite moviegoers, they’ve released a Trojan Horse Popcorn Bucket that requires customers to open a secret hatch on the horse to access their popcorn. The Trojan Horse popcorn bucket is the second collectible popcorn bucket released for The Odyssey. Instagram/@theodysseymovieThe location of the hatch is sparking funny commentary on social media. “Why is it in a dick pouch?” commented an X user on the announcement post for the bucket. Turning to souvenir popcorn buckets and movie merchandise is a smart way to incentivize people to actually go to the movies in the world of streaming. The popcorn bucket prop phenomenon is the latest — and wildly successful — trend in novelty concessions to bait fans. Past popcorn pushes have featured the designer-esque handbag for “The Devil Wears Prada 2,” the $65 corvette popcorn vessel for “Barbie” and the “Mission: Impossible” bucket that needed a key to unlock. The moviegoer swag market has skyrocketed since the inception of collectible popcorn buckets, as AMC recorded sales of over to over $54 million annually in the mid-2020s — compared to their reportedly $0 revenue in 2018, Time reported in November 2025.However, a plastic horse with a popcorn pouch that is inconvenient to eat out of may not be the solution for moviegoers.“Amazing. Now release the cyclops face bucket where I can eat out of the eyeball,” another X user wrote. The bucket will be available in-theater at Regal, AMC and Cinemark locations. The Trojan Horse bucket is the second collectible for the film, the first being the IMAX Film Camera Popcorn Bucket, which sold out on its first day. Commenters are not only criticizing the bucket’s design, but also the size. “Smallest popcorn content of all time,” one Instagram user wrote in the comments of the bucket-reveal post. And someone on X asked, “What is this? A popcorn bucker for ants??” The Odyssey posted their popcorn bucket in Venice Beach, CA to build excitement for the life-sized Trojan Horse replica being put there. Instagram/@theodysseymovieThe Trojan Horse is an iconic object in the story of “The Odyssey,” as the Greeks constructed a giant wooden horse, hid soldiers inside and presented it as a gift to Troy, whose citizens did not know who was inside. Instead of hiding soldiers, this wooden horse conceals your popcorn so you don’t spill any in the theater.“You open it and a small army of tiny men run out and stab you,” another Instagram user joked. Others are saying that “Homer is rolling in his grave” and “the placement of the hole is interesting, to say the least.”But there are always super-fans who are willing to buy any collectible, and Homer enthusiasts are excited to eat their popcorn out of the Trojan Horse on opening night. “Do I have room for more buckets? No. Will I be getting this one though? ofc,” one fan wrote on Instagram.“NOW THIS IS A POPCORN BUCKET,” wrote another. The Trojan Horse has become the key marketing symbol for the movie, with a humongous horse displayed in Venice Beach, CA.With a star-studded cast of Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson and Zendaya, the film already has lots of buzz surrounding it. With Oppenheimer, Interstellar, The Dark Knight and Memento just being some of the movies in Nolan’s filmography, the hype surrounding this upcoming film is predictable.

Mystery Deepens: Unmarked Graves Found Amid Search for Missing Nancy Guthrie New

Mystery Deepens: Unmarked Graves Found Amid Search for Missing Nancy Guthrie

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos responded to reports of an anonymous tip over the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie that allegedly led to searches of unmarked graves in Mexico. “We are aware of reports regarding an anonymous tip related to the Nancy Guthrie investigation that was provided to a group in Mexico,” Nanos, 70, said in a statement on Thursday, June 11. “At this time, we have not been contacted by Mexican authorities.” His statement concluded, “This investigation remains active and ongoing, and we will continue to follow up on any credible information.” TMZ reported on Thursday that a group of volunteer searchers called Buscando Corazones Nogales received an anonymous tip that led them to the U.S.-Mexico border. The group was reportedly assisted by the Sonora State Commission for the Search of Missing Persons in searching a remote area on Wednesday, where they allegedly found 25 unmarked graves. Per the outlet, there was no sign of Guthrie. Nancy — the mother of Today host Savannah Guthrie — disappeared from her home just outside of Tucson, Arizona, in the early hours of February 1. She has yet to be found and local police have not publicly identified any suspects. The Guthrie family offered a $1 million reward for information leading to Nancy’s return in February, in addition to the FBI putting up $202,500. Last month, Sheriff Nanos acknowledged that he was not “personally” in contact with the Guthries regarding updates in the case. “If [my team] need the family for anything, they get in touch with them and the family,” he told People on May 14. “It works both ways.” Nanos subsequently offered insight on why the Guthrie case has been so difficult to solve during an interview with local Tucson, Arizona outlet KOLD News 13. “These cases are difficult,” he clarified on June 1. “Not just this case. A number of our cases come to us where it requires a lot of work from other people. It’s not just a detective who goes out there, talks to somebody, and we can make an arrest.” He described Nancy’s disappearance as particularly “sensitive” because there has been so little valuable DNA evidence recovered thus far. “What really makes it prolonged is we do rely on labs,” he added. “You don’t want to jeopardize not just the integrity of this case, but the integrity of DNA as a supplement to law enforcement work.” Savannah, 54, officially returned to her job at NBC’s Today in New York City on April 6. Earlier this week, the TV host shared a religious painting depicting Christ’s ascension along with an appeal on her mom’s behalf. “Oh my, my soul, it cries out, soul, it cries out,” Savannah wrote via her Instagram Story on Sunday, June 7. “Bring her home.”

Newborn 'Good Luck Charms' Spark Knicks' NBA Finals Magic New

Newborn 'Good Luck Charms' Spark Knicks' NBA Finals Magic

Cameron Issacs, one of the youngest New York Knicks fans, stayed up way past his bedtime Wednesday night, watching his team trample the San Antonio Spurs with a 107-to-106 buzzer-beater victory. But winning is nothing new to the eight-day-old. He was born mere hours before the Knicks scored their first triumph against their southwestern opponents during Game 1 of the NBA Finals on June 3. “He’s like their good luck charm,” mom Kazaya, 30, and dad Anthony, 35, both Bronx natives now living in South Florida, agreed with a laugh while exclusively talking to The Post. Cameron Isaacs is celebrated by his family as a good luck charm due to his birth coinciding with the Knicks’ game 1 NBA Finals victory. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony IsaacsBaby Cameron is one of hundreds of newborns to storm the scene — whether as near as the Upper East Side’s Lennox Hill Hospital, where Labor & Delivery nurses are gifting infants Knicks-bedecked beanies, or as far as the opposite coast — as the Knicks sprint ever-closer to their first championship trophy since 1973.The ballers fell short of the glory in 1994 and 1999, both times suffering sore losses that have loomed like a dark cloud over the city for nearly three decades. But now, with a 3-win lead over Spurs — a last-second accomplishment clinched by OG Anunoby, which sent thunderous thrills through the likes of Taylor Swift, Nas, Timothée Chalamet, Kylie Jenner, Spike Lee and VIPs of similar ilk at the Garden Wednesday — the skies over NYC are finally shining blue (and orange) again. Swift (Left) and “Law & Order: SVU” star Mariska Hargitay sat in celebrity row, watching the heated matchup with bated breath.

Charles Wenzelberg / New York PostKylie Jenner joined beau Timothee Chalamet for the buzzy bout, cheering on the Knicks in a denim outfit to match the “Marty Supreme” star. Brad Penner-Imagn ImagesAnthony, a lifelong Knicks fanatic, has been breathing happy sighs of relief since his team’s fresh wind of fortunate hit full-force on his son’s birthday.  “It was such a dreamy day,” gushed Anthony, a United States Postal Service worker, of the milestone moment for both his family and his big-game favorites. “Kazaya had the baby via C-section, and she scheduled it not even knowing that was Game 1 of the finals.”Anthony and Kazaya spent some of their pregnancy shopping for Knicks apparel, for themselves and baby Cameron, before his NBA Finals arrival. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony Isaacs“I was like, ‘Oh, my god, that’s Game 1. What are we gonna do?’ But then I realized the birth was scheduled for 7:30 a.m. that day,” added the zealot, founder of online fan community KnicksNation.At the crack of dawn on June 3, he and Kazaya, also parents to Cameron’s big sister, Aria, 8, headed to a hospital in Palm Beach County, Fl., dressed head-to-toe in New York Knicks gear. Branded hats, a blue and orange suitcase and a duffle bag stitched with point guard Jalen Brunson’s name and jersey number showcased their unabashed fandom.Their early appointment and sports fan swag helped put Anthony’s pounding heart at ease. Kazaya tells The Post she hopes her baby’s Game 1 birth is a precursor to the Knicks winning the NBA Championship. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony Isaacs“I was like, ‘Okay, he’ll be born, we’ll enjoy him and then the game will be in the evening,’” he recalled. “‘We can watch it with him.’”And that they did — right from the comforts of their hospital room. “When they won the first game of the Finals, I wanted to belt out screaming, but you know, I couldn’t because we were still in the hospital and I didn’t want to scare the baby,” said Anthony, who would have “loved” to name his first son “Jalen,” an honorable nod to Brunson, but already has a nephew with the hot moniker.Anthony struggled to curb his enthusiasm while watching the Knicks succeed in Game 1 from his wife’s post-delivery recovery room. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony IsaacsBorn a Knicks fan, little Cameron’s birth marked a record run for his family’s beloved boys in blue and orange. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony IsaacsFor Kazaya, a realtor, watching the Knicks spank the Spurs has come as a “nice distraction” as she’s convalescing post C-section — an invasive birthing procedure accomplished through incisions made in a mother’s abdomen and uterus.  “Now that we’re home, recovery’s been rough and there’s a lot I can’t do right now,” said the second-time new mommy. “So watching them play is something fun that I can do while lying down on the couch.”Cameron, however, was upright, watching Game 4 with Anthony as he paced their living room floor during the nail-biting bout. Aria, a newly initiated Knicks fan like mom and dad, was fast asleep around midnight before being startled awake by Anthony’s screams when his home team secured the game series lead. While clad in their Knicks gear, Anthony and baby Cameron kept a close eye on last night’s game. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony IsaacsKazaya is happy to have birthed a family of Knicks fans, fueled by Anthony’s lifelong allegiance to the team. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony IsaacsKazaya and big sister Aria kept little Cameron company while Anthony jumped for joy over the Knicks’ Game 4 victory. Courtesy Kazaya and Anthony Isaacs“It was incredible,” Kazaya chuckled, unfazed by her hubby’s disruptive delight. “We were all really excited.”On May 8, 2026, Emilio Weeks came into the world, another Knicks-centered day marked by Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, in which the Knicks faced the 76ers.“Matt just kept saying, ‘You have to get this baby out before the game starts,” joked mother Alexis Hernandez of her husband.Matt Weeks cheered his wife, Alexis, on as she birthed their baby boy, Emilio, just in time for the Knicks v. Philadelphia 76ers face-off during the NBA Playoffs. Courtesy of Alexis HernandezWith just a few hours to spare between Emilio’s birth and the 8:30 p.m. tipoff, the New York native describes snuggling up with her newborn, enjoying Taco Bell with her husband of a decade, and watching the Knicks beat the 76ers.“It was bliss,” Hernandez said. “It felt like a true NY moment, in my hospital room downtown, with my NYC baby, watching the Knicks in the final.”Alexis, Matt and little Emilio enjoyed their first family breakfast watching Knicks coverage one day after the baby was born. Courtesy of Alexis HernandezIronically, her postpartum nurse was from Philly and had fun joking with the couple about who would win.“It’s interesting because you immediately love this newborn who is in your life for a few hours, but on the other hand, you have a moment of history happening from a team you’ve loved your entire life,” said her husband, also a native New Yorker, Matt Weeks. “So you hold your newborn and your iPhone, and you do both.”The next morning, breakfast was served, and the Knicks recap was aptly on the TV.

Shockwaves as Papa Johns Closes 50 Locations: What's Behind the Sudden Shutdown?

An American favorite pizza chain is quietly disappearing from communities across the country.Papa Johns is following through on its plan to close about 300 North American stores, with dozens of locations shuttering in the first quarter – primarily in core Sun Belt states.A recent analysis of Papa Johns financial filings by Fast Company found that 44 stores closed across 17 states, with the highest concentration of closures in Texas, California, Florida and Arizona.Multiple location closures have also been identified in Michigan, North Carolina and Virginia.A Papa John’s restaurant is seen on Feb. 27, 2026, in Austin, Texas. Getty ImagesThe pizza brand first announced in February that hundreds of underperforming restaurants would cease operations by the end of 2027, describing the locations as being primarily franchise-owned, more than a decade old and generating less than $600,000 in annual sales volumes (AUVs).“We believe these closures will further strengthen the system, increasing AUVs by at least 3 percent and improve franchisee health by allowing franchisees to reallocate resources towards operational excellence in their remaining restaurants and open units in priority markets,” Papa Johns CFO Ravi Thanawala previously said. Papa Johns pepperoni pizza for pan pizza taste test photographed Feb. 13, 2026. The Washington Post via Getty ImagesHe also said that the majority of the company’s restaurants worldwide have “performed well over the years and delivered strong returns for both corporate and franchise owners,” and that the strategic closure of underperforming restaurants is “among the most impactful actions we can take to improve restaurant profitability and fleet health.”However, shares of Papa Johns International were down roughly 21 percent year to date through Wednesday’s close. Over the past five years, shares of Papa Johns International have fallen more than 69 percent.In addition to the Q1 store closures, filings showed that Papa Johns laid off 7 percent of its corporate workforce.Pizza boxes stacked in a Papa John’s restaurant on Feb. 27, 2026, in Austin, Texas.

A recent Wall Street Journal report found that pizza restaurants are now outnumbered by Mexican restaurants and coffee shops.Other pizza chain competitors have made strategic moves amid weakening demand, including rival Pizza Hut closing hundreds of locations and its parent company, Yum!

PDK's Surprising Move: What They Demand from LVV New

PDK's Surprising Move: What They Demand from LVV

TBGazeta Minuti arbn · June 11, 2026 · Uncategorized Fjalët “nuk ta ka dhanë populli o’ vëlla”, me të cilat Albin Kurti përulte opozitën në qëndrimet e tyr për presidentin, i erdhën në vizitë vetë shqiptuesit të tyre më 7 qershor.Vetëvendosja humbi nëntë mandate në zgjedhjet e jashtëzakonshme parlamentare, sipas rezultateve preliminare.Ranë nga 51.1% në 42.45%, duke dështuar të marrin shumicën prej 60% që Kurti kishte kërkuar për ta pasur si leje-popullore për president të vetin.Me t’u konstituar Kuvendi nis ora e 60 ditëve kushtetuese për zgjedhjen e presidentit. Moszgjedhja brenda këtij afati e dërgon vendin sërish në zgjedhje të jashtëzakonshme.Albulena Haxhiu, zyrtarja kujdestare e institucionit të presidentit, deklaroi sot se “duhet të ulim të flasim seriozisht” me partitë politike. Haxhiu pretendoi se Vetëvendosja tani kërkon zgjidhje.“Nëse do të ketë vullnet prej partive politike, do të gjendet zgjidhje,” tha ajo.“Kemi shumë dallime, por për çështjen e presidentit duhet të ulemi dhe të dëshmojmë vullnet.”Çështja publike është shtruar në dy trajta: koalicion mes Vetëvendosjes dhe ish-opozitës, përkatësisht dy partive më të mëdha PDK-së apo LDK-së, ose zgjedhje të reja në vjeshtë.LDK-ja ka dhënë indikatorë për mundësinë e marrëveshjeje politike me Vetëvendosjen.Lumir Abdixhiku mbrëmjen e zgjedhjeve deklaroi se “pikënisje e çdo negociate” do të jetë çështja e presidentit dhe kandidatja e tij Vjosa Osmani.Osmani vetë tha se “Vetëvendosja nuk ka asnjë arsye të refuzojë emrin tim.” Pas reagimeve të ashpra, e zbuti qëndrimin në “emri im nuk do të jetë pengesë për formimin e institucioneve.”Në një intervistë për CNN, Osmani foli për “kompromis për të tre institucionet.”“Kompromisi është i nevojshëm jo vetëm për presidentin, por edhe për qeverinë dhe udhëheqjen e parlamentit,” tha ajo.Nga radhët e Vetëvendosjes tashmë kanë dalur disa deputetë që deklarojnë se nuk do ta votojnë Osmanin, nëse propozohet si kandidate.Bedri Hamza i PDK-së tha se “nuk ka vija të kuqe” për asnjë parti, por preferenca e tij mbetet qeveria e ish-opozitës. Hamza kushtëzoi gjithashtu se çdo marrëveshje “duhet t’i paraprijë konstituimit të Kuvendit.”“Mendoj që për me pasur institucione shpejt dhe të qëndrueshme, duhet me pas marrëveshje politike qysh tash,” tha Hamza.Përparim Gruda i PDK-së e konkretizoi edhe më tej qëndrimin e partisë së tij.Ai tha se çdo marrëveshje me Vetëvendosjen duhet të ketë Bedri Hamzën kryeministër. PDK-ja mund t’ia linte presidentin Vetëvendosjes, madje edhe vetë Kurtit, shtoi Gruda.Por “vijë të kuqe” e kanë çështja e gazit amerikan. Kurti e ka refuzuar këtë propozim, dhe Gruda e cilëson këtë refuzim “rrezik kombëtar për Kosovën.”“Nëse bëhet fjalë për një qeveri që refuzon gazin amerikan dhe ka tendenca me mbajt Kosovën të varfër, unë e shoh një koalicion të pamundur,” tha Gruda. Por nuk e përjashtoi plotësisht: “Për presidentin jemi detyruar me negociuar të gjithë.”AAK-ja dhe kryetari i saj i ri, Ardian Gjini, mbrojnë një zgjidhje tjetër krejtësisht. Ai kërkon që qeveria e ardhshme të krijohet nga ish-opozita: PDK, LDK dhe AAK, pa Vetëvendosjen.Gjini e bëri këtë deklaratë në emisionin “Rubikon” të Klan Kosovës në intervistën e tij e parë pas zgjedhjeve.“Opozita duhet ta ndalojë Vetëvendosjen që të mos e bllokojë më shtetin,” tha ai. “Nëse vazhdojmë kështu, Kosova ka me pësuar shumë keq.”Gjini i ftoi PDK-në dhe LDK-në të bashkohen, duke pranuar se AAK-ja do të jetë partneri më i vogël. “Kam të drejtë të plotë legjitime me i ftuar,” tha ai.

Love Island Star TJ Palma's Secret to Making a Coast-to-Coast Romance Sizzle New

Love Island Star TJ Palma's Secret to Making a Coast-to-Coast Romance Sizzle

Love Island USA’s TJ Palma continues to count his blessings after meeting Iris Kendall in Fiji. “We're doing great long distance, two opposite sides of the country, but we make it work, and we've been just climbing uphill together,” TJ, 24, exclusively shared with Us Weekly on Wednesday, June 11, while celebrating his partnership with Hellmann’s Spicy Mayo. “We're going through this new life together. We're best friends, we're lovers. It's just a relationship I've always dreamt of and wanted, and it's surreal to have that really come to life.” Although TJ’s home base is in Florida and Iris lives closer to Los Angeles, the pair try to see each other every other week. “She's coming here. I'm going there, or we're taking a vacation,” TJ explained. “We make it work, and it's just been amazing.” Although TJ left Love Island USA last summer before being officially coupled up with Iris, the pair were able to reconnect in the States once cameras stopped rolling. In November 2025, TJ pulled out all the stops to ask Iris to officially be his girlfriend. “We have fun doing anything or going anywhere, even if it's going to the grocery store up the street,” he said. “It's cool that people look up to us and everything, but we're just regular people at the end of the day. Half of the time, we don't even want to go outside. We’re very, like, ‘Let's stay in. Let's watch a movie. Let's frickin' build a Lego set.’ … It’s no different from anybody else.” As a new batch of Islanders look for love this summer on Love Island USA, viewers may come across TJ and Iris’ new ad for Hellmann’s Spicy Mayo. While the couple spotlight the condiment perfect for French fries, sandwiches and other summer food staples, the commercial also shows off the pair’s chemistry and playful sense of humor. “We had a lot of fun doing it, and I felt like the spicy mayo calls for a spicy commercial,” TJ joked. “Seeing the final product, it's like, ‘Wow! It really came to life.’” With the summer just beginning, TJ is looking forward to spending more quality time with Iris, 26, and making unforgettable memories. As for curious fans wondering when the pair may move in together, TJ said they’ve had discussions about taking the next big step. For now, they are simply enjoying the present. “We honestly haven't come to a decision on where, when, how type of thing,” he shared. “She's always expressed that she was OK moving out of L.A. I've always expressed that I'm OK moving out of Tampa. … We're still trying to figure it out, but I think we're doing a pretty decent job, and it's pretty early. We definitely can see ourselves moving in together soon.” Love Island USA streams new episodes on Peacock every day except Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET.

Breakthrough Drug Promises to Prevent 'Ozempic Butt' - What's the Catch? New

Breakthrough Drug Promises to Prevent 'Ozempic Butt' - What's the Catch?

You may yet be able to lean out without losing out, as a new drug could save GLP-1 users from the flat fate of “Ozempic butt.”A symptom of rapid weight loss, Ozempic butt is characterized by a sudden loss of volume and muscle in key areas, leaving users looking and feeling deflated.And Americans are losing weight faster than ever thanks to drugs like Wegovy and Zepbound, with roughly one in eight US adults now turning to GLP-1s to slim down. A symptom of rapid weight loss, Ozempic butt, like Ozempic face, is characterized by a sudden loss of volume. Africa Studio – stock.adobe.comGLP-1 medications work by mimicking hormones to reduce food cravings, increase fullness, slow digestion, and stabilize blood sugar levels.Research suggests that while GLP-1 drugs do indeed trigger significant weight loss, about 25% to 40% of that loss comes from lean body mass, including muscle.This loss is critical because, in addition to giving backsides their bounce, lean body mass supports metabolism, strength, balance, mobility, energy levels and healthy aging.However, a new study published in the journal Nature Medicine found that when weight-loss drugs are paired with an experimental antibody medication called apitegromab, patients may be able to lose weight without sacrificing muscle.According to study coauthor Richard Pratley, the results of the study “absolutely show that they can preserve lean mass.”Apitegromab works by blocking myostatin, a protein that contributes to muscle breakdown. In a clinical trial, Pratley and his team tested the treatment on 102 people with BMIs that classified them as overweight or obese. For 24 weeks, they all got weekly injections of the weight-loss drug tirzepatide (sold under brand names Mounjaro and Zepbound). Half also received a monthly infusion of apitegromab.While both groups lost roughly the same amount of weight, those who received apitegromab retained around 55% more muscle, or “lean mass,” than those who didn’t receive it.Keeping that lean mass also seemed to translate into the retention of strength: Those who took apitegromab recorded slightly greater grip strength and scored higher on a test measuring leg strength and endurance. Participants who received the apitegromab infusion recorded slightly greater grip strength and scored higher on a test that measured leg strength and endurance AntonioDiaz – stock.adobe.comApitegromab — which has not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and is available only via intravenous infusions — is also being explored as a potential treatment for spinal muscular atrophy.According to Seeley, the ultimate goal is finding “the right drug for the right patient at the right time.”Researchers are calling for future studies to determine if the medicine can help combat sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle mass and strength associated with aging, which not only impairs physical performance but also increases the risk of falls and loss of independence.“We need to learn what these medications are capable of,” said Pratley.For those looking to fight back against a flat tush, there are other ways to preserve and promote muscle mass.Experts recommend that adults get at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise and at least two days of strength training, including lifting weights, resistance training, or other muscle-building activities.Protein is also key to maintaining muscle. The Recommended Dietary Allowance is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, or 0.36 grams per pound. For a 150-pound person, that’s 54 grams of protein daily.Dor those looking to build muscle, experts recommend 1.2 grams to 2 grams of protein per kilogram of weight.High-protein foods include chicken, turkey, salmon, tuna, tofu, chickpeas, lentils, milk, yogurt, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds. While red meat is rich in protein, experts warn that a high intake may increase your risk of colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancer.

The Hidden Link Between Your Toothbrush and Your Mood New

The Hidden Link Between Your Toothbrush and Your Mood

You really can feel down in the mouth.We tend to think of depression as something that exists in the mind, but the reality is that it affects the whole body — and the whole body can have an impact on depression, including your teeth and gums.“Poor oral hygiene can lead to gum disease. Gum disease creates chronic inflammation,” Dr. Jason Auerbach, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, told The Post. “Chronic inflammation has been associated with a number of health conditions, including depression.”Depression can make it feel impossible to keep up with day-to-day hygiene. Shisu_ka – stock.adobe.comThe brain-mouth-body connectionPeople refer to the mouth as a gateway to the body — it’s where fuel enters to keep the body running, of course, but it can also be an entry point for undesirables, like certain bacteria.Untreated infections in the mouth open the door for that bacteria to go directly into the bloodstream, potentially leading to life-threatening sepsis. These infections can also cause chronic inflammation, which is linked to a number of health conditions, including lowered immunity and heart disease.Oral health is also inextricably linked to mental health. Patients who are struggling with oral health often change the way they think and act. Auerbach says patients may stop smiling in photos, start covering their mouths, and stop speaking up in meetings because they’re self-conscious about their teeth.“The connection [between mental and oral health] is definitely stronger than most people think,” Auerbach said. “The reality is the body doesn’t divide itself into neat little compartments the way people perceive it does.”Can you brush away the bad mood?Research shows that people with common mental health disorders (depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD) have higher rates of tooth decay and tooth than the general population. The reason is not only a lack of daily care at home. One study showed that over 65% of people dealing with poor mental health did not seek dental care.While not brushing your teeth twice a day and skipping flossing and dental check-up won’t directly lead to depression, it certainly doesn’t help.“It’s one piece of a much bigger puzzle, so the better way to think about it is this: The same people who consistently prioritize sleep, exercise, nutrition, medical care and oral health tend to be supporting both their physical and mental well-being,” Auerbach said.Doctors recommend brushing twice a day and flossing once a day. New Africa – stock.adobe.comA vicious cycleDepression is marked by lack of motivation, fatigue and feelings of worthlessness, which make it hard for people to keep up good habits. Hygiene routines — including showering to changing clothes to cleaning teeth — are among the first things to suffer. Unfortunately, skipping brushing and flossing can lead to secondary effects like pain, self-consciousness and isolation, which only make matters worse.“I’ve seen it countless times. Someone becomes depressed. Self-care starts to slip… Maybe they develop bad breath or become self-conscious about their smile,” Auerbach said. “Now, they’re not only struggling emotionally, they’re struggling physically and socially as well.”It creates a vicious cycle in which decay and tooth loss can reduce quality of life, make mental health even worse, and make it harder to seek care and improve health overall.“When people feel good about their oral health, they tend to engage more confidently in life,” Auerbach said. Dr. Jason Auerbach said that often oral health care providers see the effects of depression before anyone else. Courtesy of Dr. Jason AuerbachThe most important dental care habits to keep upAuerbach stressed the need to brush twice a day, floss once a day, see your dentist regularly, stay hydrated and abstain from smoking.“Don’t overcomplicate it,” he added. “If everyone did those five things consistently, we’d eliminate a tremendous amount of dental disease. The basics aren’t sexy, they’re basic, but they’re incredibly powerful.”And for people with depression who are struggling to keep up with dental care, don’t make being perfect an enemy of the good.“If brushing for two minutes feels impossible, brush for thirty seconds. If flossing your entire mouth feels overwhelming, floss a few teeth. If you miss a day, don’t turn it into a week,” Auerbach said. “I think people underestimate how important small wins are when they’re struggling. Some days brushing your teeth is just about proving to yourself that you can still take care of yourself. That’s a meaningful victory.”
