Bitter truth about sugar:
Sugar is the enemy of your teeth as it is apartners with plaque, increasing the acidity in your mouth and weakening enamel which can lead to cavities. This is why sweet and sticky products, such as jellies and fudge, are absolutely forbidden! In fact, each time you eat a sugary snack, your teeth are under seige for the next 20 minutes. If you simply can't resist try limiting your intake to once a week, after a proper meal, and ensure to brush your teeth after eating. If you don't have a toothbrush or toothpaste to hand simply rinsing your mouth out will help to stimulate the production of saliva, avoiding a harmfully low pH.
