'I brushed, I swear'...The truth about Red Wine and Stained Teeth

In I brushed, I swear Michele Foley (Chow) does a quick Q and A on the topic of Red Wine and Stained Teeth.

Chemical and Engineering News ads coffee and tea (besides red wine) to the list of stainer in chief.

The Scotsman on the other hand suggests that Red wine 'may help to stop teeth falling out' in being key to prevent and treat serious gum disease.

I will let you sort all that out.

What is your take on this?

Sante!

Our kids get older and grow out of things they used to like and some of them are voracious readers...
