Stay tuned for an exciting announcement about Life Noggin's future at the end of
the video. It's good news I promise. Hey there, welcome to Life Noggin.
You may not realize it but there are many devices you interact with every day
that are actually helping you to live longer. Number one as Triangle Bob is demonstrating
is the toothbrush. While it's keeping your teeth nice and healthy and your breath fresh
this everyday device can also help your heart by lowering your risk of cardiovascular disease,
which is the leading cause of death worldwide. It may not be able to prevent it but studies
have found that people who rarely brush their teeth were more likely to have high cholesterol
or cardiac events like a heart attack or stroke. But brushing three or more times a day can lead to
a 12% reduction in heart failure risk. The reason is still being investigated, but researchers
theorize that by reducing the bacteria in your gum line less bacteria enters the bloodstream
where it can cause heart problems. Number two, toilets. See what we did there? Another common
life extension device that we should all be using regularly is the toilet. By flushing away our
waste we are avoiding serious health and safety risks. Without toilets infected waste
can contaminate our land and water resulting in the spread of illnesses like cholera,
typhoid, and diarrhea, which can be fatal if not treated. Sadly 2.5 billion people don't have
access to safe clean toilets and in those areas diarrhea is the second leading cause
of death for children under five. Number three on the unexpected life extension devices list
is the air conditioner. The air conditioner is another device that may not get all the
respect it deserves. While it may seem like a luxury it can actually save lives by keeping
your body temperature low on really hot days. Medical experts say that air conditioning is the
strongest protective factor against heat related illness and the most effective way to cool down.
This can prevent illnesses like heat stroke which can be fatal. In fact one study found that since
air conditioners became common in the US in the 60s the chances of dying on extremely hot days
dropped by 75%. The final device I want to mention isn't in your house but you probably use it every
day. Every year satellites save countless lives by doing a whole lot more than just forecasting
the weather. They are also an essential tool in helping us manage natural disasters as
they're happening, to locate areas that are at risk of flooding fires or landslides and even to
predict earthquakes before they occur. They are even used in search and rescue missions helping
officials to precisely locate people lost at sea. So next time you brush your teeth or go to the
bathroom take a moment to appreciate the objects in your life that are helping you to live longer
healthier lives. So I teased at the beginning of the video of a special announcement, and I'm
excited to let everyone know that Life Noggin has officially become part of the team at the charity
Lifespan.io, which is doing incredible work to fight age-related diseases like Alzheimer's,
heart disease, and cancer, by addressing the root causes of the aging process directly. You
can check them out at youtube.com/lifespanio and Lifespan News. They've helped us make a few videos
in the past and really believe in what Life Noggin is trying to do. Our content isn't changing. The
channel is staying Life Noggin. We basically just have a few more people to help us make more things
so I don't burn out again. We're going to be able to make more life noggin IRL, VR videos, and
more incredible things that the animated lawyers are saying that I can't mention yet. I can't wait
to see all the fun projects that'll start because of this Lifespan charity partnership, and i'm
thankful that Life Noggin can continue making videos to help you learn new things. That's it.
