Does tea stain your teeth? Do strawberries whiten your teeth?

YESSS I've been thinking about this :P and today, just now, I figurred I might just as well ask Google 'How does tea affect teeth?' and I got an answer!!! Although it's a bit controversial.. I guess..

"Not all drinks are good for our teeth. Besides sugar it is the pH value of some drinks that has negative effects on your teeth.
All warm Pickwick teas, also the fruit flavoured teas, are pH-neutral and do not effect the dental enamel. Therefore, tea is not only a delicious drink, but also a drink that can be drunk all day long.
One cup of tea contains approximately 0.25 milligrams of fluoride. Fluoride is well known about its positive effect on teeth. One’s daily fluoride need is somewhere between 1.4 and 1.5 milligrams. Thus tea consumption also contributes to meet our fluoride need."

Now you must be thinking ''Yayyy we can drink tea all day long!'', which you can.. as long as you remember :

"People who have abandoned their morning cup of coffee for a healthier cup of herbal tea might want to think again, say British researchers. They found that many herbal teas seriously damage teeth by eroding protective enamel. “Many of the herbal teas tested were found to be more erosive than orange juice,” University of Bristol researchers report in the Journal of Dentistry. Some teas were three times as acidic as juice."

... and then the controversial part :

"A spokesman for Twinings teas says saliva dilutes and neutralizes any acid in herbal teas, adds The Week magazine."

Just great.. total confusion.. But, as always, there's a clear answer as well ; don't drink herbal tea - stick to normal tea :D

Now to strawberries :D (♥)

"Yes, this fruit has an active component called malic acid that helps to bleach"(http://www.denznet.com/beauty/strawberries-to-whiten-teeth/)

Hmm... MY OPINION!: Drink tea, eat strawberries and smile :D
