Give Me a Big Smile

During a study conducted in the mid-80s, it was apparent that in the Amish population, two out of three people did not brush their teeth every day and most of them did not use floss at all. To us common folk, this may sound unhygienic but that is not the case. In fact, they seem to have fewer cavities than the rest of the population.

The reason for this is that they do not consume any sugar in their diet and sugar is the number one cause of cavities and other dental-related diseases.
