It's the month of love and grand romantic gestures and we're hoping this means not just some gift giving but a lot more kissing.

But did you know that kissing evolved from sniffing, which people did centuries ago as a way of learning about each other?

As Vaughn Bryant, an anthropologist at Texas A&M University, told Reuters' Jim Forsyth: “At some point, they slipped and ended up on the lips, and they thought that was a lot better."

Benefits of kissing

Experts have also found that kissing could also benefit your health. It is a hormone releaser, a mini-workout, a mood relaxer and it's good for your teeth as it increases saliva flow. 

"The extra saliva helps to wash bacteria off the teeth and reduce plaque buildup," dentist Dr Heidi Hausauer tells the Daily Mail.

Something else that is good for your teeth and will help you and your loved one pucker up with confidence is the Sunstar GUM #FreshBreathPower kit for two.

Recommended by dental professionals around the world and distributed in South Africa by Ivohealth, Sunstar GUM’s quality oral care products are available at Dis-Chem, Clicks, selected Checkers, Pick n Pay, SPAR, pharmacies and dentists. For more details and stockists go to  www.ivohealth.co.za.

Inside the kit you’ll find all the quality tools you need for an effective daily oral care routine that keeps your mouth kissable and smile sparkling.
