the power of cheese

Gbex says: CAVITIES-Did you know that one of the best things for your teeth after any meal is a slice of Cheddar cheese?

It's because the chewiness and taste stimulates a lot of saliva (more spit!),which washes away the sugar from food. This makes teeth twice as resistant to sugar's harmful effects.

AND, the high calcium and phosphate levels in cheese form a protective barrier that prevents plague from causing tooth decay. Cheese will even help restore healthy levels of calcium and phosphate to your teeth when those nutrients are low!
