Whether you're a vegetarian or just want to go meat-free once in a while, it's good to be mindful that you still consume enough protein to stay healthy. Below are some easily accessible sources of protein for when you go meat-free. As animal derivatives, dairy and eggs have relatively higher levels of protein compared to beans, seeds, and nuts.

Going meat-free can be healthy and good for the environment, but do be cautious when committing to a fully vegetarian or vegan diet. Speak with healthcare professionals for advice on how to best transition you or your children to vegetarianism or veganism.

In recognition of World Rabies Day on 28th September, below is the protocol for dealing with suspected rabies exposure. The rabies virus is spread by exposing infected saliva to an open wound, usually by being bitten by an infected animal.

After a being bitten by a possibly infected animal, immediately wash the wound with soap and water for at least 15 minutes, then seek medical attention. You should be given post-exposure prophylactic medication that you will have to take according to the doctor's instructions.

Please do not wait for rabies symptoms to manifest, as by the time they appear, it is usually too late to receive successful treatment. Treat any open animal bite wound as potential rabies exposure.

Below are some notes on how different drinks affect your teeth. Sugary and acidic drinks can be harmful to your teeth as they wear away the enamel. Darker liquids can also stain your teeth.

Consuming drinks using a straw can lessen contact with your teeth depending on how you position your straw. Try to place the straw such that the liquid comes into minimal contact with your teeth.
Wait at least 30 minutes to an hour before brushing your teeth after consuming a drink that isn't plain water. Brushing before 30 minutes can cause damage as your teeth will be vulnerable due to the acid exposure from the drink.
