Colgate: ‘healthy mouth equals healthy heart’
Colgate has joined forces with British Heart Foundation to highlight the importance of the link between oral and overall health.
The company is partnering the charity (BHF) in its attempt to raise funds for National Heart Month which takes place in February.
Colgate has committed to donate 10p from every one of its products sold at Boots to the BHF from 27 January to 23 February.
It has agreed to donate a maximum of £100,000 to this years campaign.
A Colgate spokesperson said that oral health played a crucial role in a body’s overall well-being and added that infections that begin in your mouth can spread to vital organs through your bloodstream.
BHF is encouraging people to be active, eat healthily, and avoid smoking smoking this February in its bid to reduce the amount of heart disease suffers in the UK.
