Eat Better/Eat less sugar: Corrosive Drinks
Athletes and those who seek to replenish bodily fluids take note: researchers at the University of Iowa found Gatorade stripped the most enamel off test teeth, more than regular Coke, Diet Coke, Red Bull, or 100% apple juice. The effect was due to the combined action of high sugar and acid content. University of Michigan pediatric dental researcher Michael Ignelzi, DDS, PhD, cautioned imbibers to watch not just what they drank, but how often. So if you're gonna have that Pepsi, sip it with meals, so the saliva can buffer the acid. If you stuff your face with sweets and chug sugary drinks all day, you'll be more prone to cavities and fat.
