No more fruit juice for me
I’m never having fruit juice again…. even brushing your teeth after having fruit juice can damage them.

Though it looks like Cranberries can block tooth decay - just make sure no sugar is added and you eat them in small quantities with meals. Eventually they’ll extract the helpful bits & add it to mouthwash & toothpaste.
I didn’t know that fruit juice could damage one’s teeth in any significant way. I must look into this issue to confirm it.
My Dentisit, who is the siser of one of my best friends for over 20 years , recently told me that the acidity of soda pop (including diet) and fruit juices or drinks such as Gatorade are extremely damaging to the teeth. If somebody sips on a soda or fruit drink throughout the day it is just like bathing them in an acidic solution.
Some of you may recall the high school chemistry class where an metal nail was placed into a glass of cola drink and left overnight. At class the next day the corrosion of the nail was shocking. I wonder what would happen if the same experiment was done with a tooth. ????
Drink water out of a glass and not plastic bottles that also contain harmful chemicals.
