Beer Brewing Hops to Fight Dental Diseases

Yeah, you were thinking the same thing I was thinking

So I open an email message this morning from Smart Planet and the heads for one of their articles reads:

“Beer Brewing Hops to Fight Dental Diseases”

My mind immediately jumps to “I need to drink more beer to help my teeth.” Well, as I read deeper into the article that was not exactly the gist of the article. True, there is something in hops called “bracts” that:

• prevent bacteria from growing
• remove plaque
• prevent beer from spoiling

However, this does NOT mean you can drink your way to good dental health.  At least not yet.  : )
