[QUOTE="Nineteen84, post: 1306401, member: 3075"] [b]RE: Health remedies and prevention for Coronavirus / flu[/b] A potentially viable method of consumption to consider - although may aggravate or cause acid reflux in some people (Ascorbic acid is pH 2. The stomach, when not digesting, is pH 4 to 6). With regards to the commonly sold crystals and powder the suggested usage is as follows: Now: [attachment=43150] H&B: [attachment=43151] So the manufacturer is recommending consumption in liquid form. Any liquid you consume will come into contact with your teeth. You drink coffee it will come into contact with your teeth, same goes for soda. Vitamin C in liquid form is no exception. Agree. [code]Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that also plays an important role in collagen synthesis, by which it helps you develop and maintain healthy gums.[/code] So yes, consuming vitamin C it is good for oral health. But directly exposing [b]enamel[/b] to ascorbic acid is not - Acorbic acid is a known demineralising agent. There are multiple published studies on this and they are easy to google. Sugar and Fructose are not the only factors in enamel erosion.
