I love the warmer weather. It is generally a hint for me to get my self on a vacation and fast. THis is because it helps me and my mental and physical health. It is a jump start to getting better. This Summer many of us like to branch out and try new drinks and treats. It is only natural in the United States to end up drinking and eating more at social gatherings. It is a part of the countries tradition and many things come up during this time which can be harmful. Not all drinks are bad and many of them are just fine in moderation, but knowing what to moderate is really important. The more you know and are able to apply to your life especialyl in health areas is always a win.
Now with summer comes nice wine on summer nights. Most of us know that wine is healthy in some way or another. The one problem is that wine is not the most healthy for your teeth. I have found that not only does it stain your teeth, but it can be highly acidic. The real issue for me is that the white wines are more acidic but stain your teeth less. Overall they are worse for your dental health because they end up decaying your teeth faster. I do say though that red wine is slightly better for the tooth enamel of your teeth. The bad side effect is that red wine stains your teeth much more. This means that neither is really great, and red wine is always a win for health for almost everyone.
So the other end of the spectrum is that some people flat out love beer in summer. The fact is that a lot of studies are not giving a lot of information on beer. But some are showing that hops that are in beer usually have beneficial aspects on teeth. The truth is though that if the beer is acidic then you should not be indulging too much. There are lots of people who drink 2 or 6 plus beers a day and that can be harming your teeth. Keep and open mind and a wise one too.
Warm weather means that water is a big part of Summer and it is something that we should be drinking a whole lot more of. The more the weather cools down the more people end up working out more. Unfortunately, a lot so people drink lots of sugary drinks instead of water. Water is very beneficial for your teeth. The effects of water rise the sugar or acid off your teeth and also help you to create more saliva. I think saliva is the body's natural tooth cleanser. It is a fantastic way to not only rinse your teeth but replenish your body's natural mouth wash. So try and drink as much as you can. If you are also drinking lots of sweet drinks, make sure to follow these drinks up with some water to help clean the tooth-damaging things away.
