Tweetable Quotes
“We’ve seen lots of those videos on TikTok and Instagram where people are brushing withlemon juice or eating lemons to try to get whiter teeth. The risk of that is that, when you putsomething so acidic in your mouth - which lemons are - it can actually break down the enamelon your teeth.”(02:48) (Dr. Brian)
“The key is not to just drink a big glass of lemon juice. That’s like acid overload. So, never dothat. But a little bit - a teaspoon - in a glass of water and that is the way this can help.”(04:09)(Dr. Brian)
“Sometimes I will take Prilosec, which is a very common over-the-counter blocker that blocksthe acid-producing system in the stomach. And that can help with acid reflux as well.”(05:33)(Dr. Brian)
“There are some foods to consider if you’re having acid reflux like coffee, things with caffeine or chocolate. Sometimes those can make acid reflux worse. And, especially spicy food.” (05:58) (Dr. Brian)
