Follow Demi Moore's raw food diet to lose weight, but beware of rotten teeth

Hollywood's "ageless hot mom" Demi Moore is over 50 years old, but with her good figure, it is hard to believe that she is already a mother of three children. However, the British Daily Mail pointed out that the raw food diet that Demi Moore likes to use may cause tooth decay and lead to a large accumulation of bacteria in the mouth.

According to The Daily Mail, Dr. Sameer Patel, clinical director of elleven, a well-known dental hospital in London, said that the raw food diet contains a lot of fruits, vegetables and nuts, which can easily lead to tooth decay and bacterial growth if the mouth is not cleaned properly. In addition, the juice detox method used by American actress Kate Hudson can also easily cause tooth decay and damage the gums.

Big stars Demi Moore and Scarlett Johansson are both followers of the raw food diet. The ingredients of this diet are mainly fruits, vegetables, nuts and kernels. It sounds healthy, but if not cleaned properly, it may result in rotten teeth.

Dr. Samir Patel pointed out that although the sugars in fruits and vegetables are natural, when they enter the mouth, they are no different from the sugars in candy or chocolate. These sugars will continue to erode your teeth, causing tooth decay, and in the long run will lead to more serious oral problems.

Additionally, nuts and kernels can get stuck between teeth, causing bacteria to attach to the teeth and accumulate quickly. It is recommended to at least rinse your mouth with water or chew gum after meals to reduce the impact of sugar in meals on oral health.

British dentists recommend that people who use low-calorie fruit and vegetable detox juice to lose weight drink fruit and vegetable juice with a straw and brush their teeth half an hour after a meal to maintain oral health.

Hollywood celebrities who have used low-calorie juice cleanses to lose weight include Kate Hudson and actress Salma Hayek. This method mainly replaces regular meals with smoothies or juices, but the acidity of fruits and vegetables will gradually corrode teeth and cause tooth decay.

Dr. Samir Patel said that this kind of weight loss method can easily cause insulin to rise and fall rapidly. In the long run, it will affect the structure of collagen in the body and affect the health of the gums, because collagen fibers can support and stabilize the teeth.

Please note that fruit and vegetable juices often contain acid and, like other cold drinks, can erode tooth enamel. Although the acidity of fruits and vegetables is naturally healthy for teeth, we should only eat fruits and vegetables in their original state. Concentrated fruit and vegetable juices are not so healthy. Doctors recommend drinking fruit and vegetable juices with a straw and waiting half an hour after a meal before brushing your teeth.
