Re: [fast5]Vinegar/lemon juice

Some people might be at risk for allergies ... the thought that you
get allergic to stuff you eat alot is kind of bogus though. In most
cultures there is one food they eat day in and day out. If eating
something all the time made you allergic, the Japanese would
all be allergic to rice, and most of the world would be allergic to
yams. And in Africa where they live off peanuts, peanut allergies
are rather rare. We do seem to be allergy-prone in our culture though.
People who have "leaky gut" (which is usually, I think, a
consequence of gluten/casein/bacterial reactions) do get
IgG allergies to things they eat often, esp. if their digestion
is bad too. But THAT is a consequence of having undigested
food enter the bloodstream, which is something that, if you
have it, needs to be fixed for any number of reasons.

Really strong juice is a problem though, esp. if you have
weak teeth, and esp. if the juice has sugar in it (if you
get "mossy teeth" I think the acid sticks longer to the tooth).
I did know someone who got tooth problems from eating
20 oranges a day. But 20 oranges is a LOT of oranges and
he did have weak enamel. Anyway, I am prone to drinking
lemon juice and the dentist says my teeth are fine and
I haven't had a cavity in oh, 30 years.
