"Energy drinks" owned yet again
 
.

Quote:

researchers at the university of iowa's college of dentistry found that energy drinks and sports drinks, such as gatorade and red bull, eroded the enamel more than soda and fruit juices. In a 2008 study published in the journal nutritional research, the dentists soaked extracted human teeth in various liquids for 25 hours, and then measured the structural changes, or lesions.

"power drinks can be quite acidic, usually because there is an addition of citric acid to those to give it tartness that is desired by some consumers," said dr. Clark stanford, the associate dean for research at the university of iowa college of dentistry. "it's important to look at the label and see if citric acid has been added."

last time I checked... GATORADE is a sports drink... not a energy drink...

I'd find it hard to believe it has the same acidic properties as a energy drink or soda...

I'm sure most sodas would do the same thing with a 25 hour soak period.

Studies have shown that putting your head through your window after hitting a car or a telephone pole is harder on your teeth then drinking Redbull.

I only drink it when I need a little extra help when tired on the road.
