For World Food Day, we remember its importance for our dental health.

Today is the World Food Daya topic that is so closely related to dental health that we have already addressed it on many occasions both here on our website and blog as well as in different videos and through social networks. That is why, on this occasion, we have decided to compile all the content that we have previously provided in this news item, so that you can access it easily and simply.

First, some tips:

  • Consumes the least amount of acidic foods avoid things like drinking lemon on an empty stomach, which neither helps you lose weight nor prevents colds.
  • It consumes, of course, the minimum possible amount of refined sugar. Especially if it comes from foods that stay in your mouth for a long time, such as candy or chewing gum. Not only will you avoid the risk of developing cavities, but also many other diseases.
  • Enter crunchy foods in your diet, such as apple, carrot or cucumber. Their high fibre content helps to naturally clean teeth and gums and also stimulates salivation.
  • Drink plenty of water. A fundamental pillar of general health, it also promotes the production of saliva and regulates the reproduction of bacteria in the mouth.
  • Whenever you can, consume foods rich in fluoride. Fluoride is naturally present in foods such as fish, tea and milk. Of course, apply logic to this advice: if you are lactose-allergic, you should not consume milk, nor should you eat only fish and skip other foods.
  • Also pay attention to the riboflavinIt is found in eggs, lean meats and green leafy vegetables. Deficiency causes inflammation of the tongue and lips.
