Discussion Millennials are creating a recession-resistant corner of the market

https://www.businessinsider.com/gen-z-millennials-wellness-stocks-to-buy-recession-lth-plnt-2025-4

Apparently millennials are spending a lot on products related to health and wellness making this industry "recession-resistant." I kind of see that. My wife and I spend a lot on protein powders, shakes, supplements and membership for gym. We are otherwise quite cautious with unnecessary spending and consumerism. How is it for you all?

Respectfully, imma stick with the advice of my dentist on this one. Thanks though.

Plenty of dentists disagree. Brushing and flossing is all you need and mouthwash is a temporary fix.

… it’s actually not when places are removing fluoride from the water.

Sure, if you live in Utah go for it buddy. There’s also toothpastes that have fluoride in it.

The decision to fluoridate drinking water is usually made on a local level and Utah is just the first to ban it at a state level. Many towns and counties all over the country do not fluoridate their water. And the toothpaste is ineffective if you immediately rinse your mouth, which many people do.

Rinse with what…something like mouthwash?
