A cruising conundrum


Recommended Posts

Teeth decay is caused by Bacteria. It has nothing to do with Sugar as such.

 

A sugary environment can help the nasties to thrive tho. Which is probably why my teeth were slightly better when I ate nothing but meat for a while, because I pretty much lived on sugar free soft drinks.

Likely due to the meat self cleaning. It is why they say eat an apple after eating other food. An apple is full of sugar, but the idea is that the Apple will self clean.

Those with overactive Saliva glands tend to have far less need of fillings.

When it comes to fizzy drinks, Coke is the worst because it has Phosphoric acid in it. But there are others as well that have Citric Acid and that can be corrosive to tooth enamel.

Ginger ale is nearly up there with coke for sugar/ carb and salt. And for the G and T brigade, so is tonic. Very disappointing. 

 As for the bacon , once you read something its hard to unread it.........
