(Valerie) High fruit/low fat vs. High fat/low fruit

[Guest guest]

Hi Valerie,

Thanks for all your input! I've made an appointment with a holistic dentist

today. They had a cancellation for next week, so I'll find out what exactly is

going on. He also removes amalgam fillings, which I would like to eventually

have done also.

I don't know about the protein side of it; I just know of reports I've read of

increasing dental problems among children, most of whom probably eat a high

protein (high fat, high sugar, etc.) diet. My understanding is that a higher

protein intake, especially from animal sources, makes for more acidity in the

body. I've never really come across anything about fruit acids being a problem,

except in the context of gastric reflux, when i was told I should quit eating

tomatoes and citrus (though, of course, no mention was made of changing any

other area of my diet, LOL!). However, since I've gone all raw, I've not had any

acid problems connected to digestion. I now eat tomatoes and citrus without any

discomfort, but I do take precautions, just in case it might be a problem with

my teeth (via direct contact; I don't think there is anything to worry about

once the foods have been digested).

 

Reading this over makes me think it may come across a little muddled....sorry

if it is; it's 3:20 a.m. here, and I woke up and could not get back to sleep!

Perhaps this is not the best time for me to be responding to emails~!

 

Peace,

Valerie
