#alcohol & #gums
While some #alcoholic beverages do contain antioxidants, particularly #redwine, alcohol in general is something that should be reduced in order to protect health
There are a few underlying reasons why alcohol may promote gum disease. Let's take a look-
1. #Sugar- #alcoholicbeverages contain a lot of added sugar. This sugar is incredibly damaging to the teeth and gums as it provides a conducive environment for bacteria to flourish, causing #gumdisease.
2. #Acidity- alcoholic beverages are also very acidic in nature. This can cause erosion of enamel making it more susceptible to bacteria in the long run.
3. #Smoking- alcohol is usually accompanied by smoking and the toxins produced by smoking increase the chances of inflammation leading to gum disease.
