    hi,
    the missus came back from the dentist last night and she said the dentist told her some enamel was damaged and they think its as a result of the fructose from the juices we've been making since we got the juicer in jan. we usually throw about 3/4 fruits and 2/3 veg into it each morning, is this too much fructose to have??? thought i was being really healthy!!

    used to live on fruit and veg when i was fighting and cutting weight, went to the doctor bout 4 years ago to find out i needed 8 fillings... I was furious...


    ... its okay to drink them just be sure to chew gum or wash your teeth afterwards the dentist was saying to me


    hope that helps

    You can use a straw to drink it to minimize the damage and also at least rinse your mouth after or else just brush your teeth.

    Try an eat all your days fruit in one sitting a day, the frequency of expsoure rather than the total sugar content is the most important thing. Also brush your teeth for ages afterwards. Is your water supply fluoridated? Do you use fluoridated toothpaste?
