How milk zaps tooth decay by cancelling out the effect of sugary foods

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


We all know sugary treats are bad for our teeth. 

But drinking a glass of milk with sugary cereals or snacks can neutralise the effect, a study found.

Milk is better than water at preventing the bacteria in plaque from producing acids when they are feasting on sugar, researchers said.

Got milk? Having a glass of milk with sugary snacks or at the end of a meal can neutralise the effect sweet foods have on the enamel

By stopping the bacteria from churning out acid, tooth enamel is protected, meaning decay and caries are less likely to develop over time. 

The researchers said: ‘Eating dairy products in combination with other sugary snacks or at the end of a meal may be an effective means of caries prevention.’

      Interesting. I wonder who “funded” these researchers? Milk is “alkaline”, so it would neutralize acids in the mouth, but what the article (or researchers) didn’t mention was, milk contains a form of sugar called “lactose” which has been found to contribute to tooth decay, and stomach distress for those who lack the enzymes to digest lactose.
      Want a simple solution to neutralize acids in the mouth after eating sugary snacks? Brush your teeth with baking soda!
      And of course, nothing was mentioned about all the hormones and antibiotics found in factory produced cow’s milk that do far more harm.
      Just saying.

      The DISINFO TECHS are coming out. They want to add ASPARTAME to 17 dairy products. People are finally awakening to the fact this chemical is POISON. They’re doing everything in there power by way of disinfo media to cover their tracks. The makers of kool-aid soft drink mix that you add your own sweetner is now being discontinued. Good Luck,on finding any drink in the stores that does not contain this poison. There are other offenders, but ASPARTAME wins this “round.” I quit drinking milk now, after years of drinking it. No longer, will I buy this poison. There is more wrong with this “milk” than any other drink on the shelf.
