Xylitol is so Sweet!

Would you be interested in using an ALL NATURAL sweetener that would actually help reduce your risk of cavities?  Recent studies suggest that regular use of xylitol sugar (that same sweetner used in the lollipops at the front desk of our office!) can reduce your risk of cavities by up to 1/3!  Although getting the benefit requires taking in about 6g per day, substitution of xylitol for your regular sweeteners can inhibit the ability of your plaque to produce the acids that cause cavities.  Some easy ways to add xylitol to your diet:  chewing gum, packets for your morning coffee, and mouthwashes and toothpastes that contain xylitol are easy to add to your routine!  Xylitol can be tricky to find, but most health food stores carry several useful products.
