If you are even thinking of swallowing a tooth brush you should consult a psychiatrist. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Anything's possible, it's just exceedingly difficult. The problem is that wherever it gets stuck, and it will, means a trip to the operating room for some nasty surgery, and an even nastier period of recovery. Why wouldnyou even consider doing this?
