Reducing Dental Cavities

What is Xylitol and What Does It Have to Do with Reducing Cavities? 
Xylitol is a natural substance that is especially effective in combating tooth decay. It is found in fruits, berries, and vegetables, and our bodies produce 5 to 10 grams each day. Over two decades of clinical research has proven that xylitol is the best choice for a sweetener, as it does not contribute to decay. It also has been found to be helpful for allergies and is available in a nasal spray. Dental associations in Europe now promote xylitol as the preferred choice to sweeten many food and dental hygiene products. We recommend the use of xylitol for fewer cavities and even to improve upper respiratory health.
