I have a friend who sent this information to me, thinking it might be an interesting and informative read for moms with babies, which I think it is. It’s a great article on baby food and how it can harm your baby’s teeth but it also includes ways to help counter the bad effects because not everyone has time to make their own food.
For children between the ages of 2 and 5, over 1/4 have tooth decay according to The Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Half of kids ages 12-15 have tooth decay problems, which can cause overall health problems now and when they get older.
Prevention not only helps keep us healthier but is always less expensive in the long run.
