Klopt! Dank voor het opletten... enerzijds omdat ik verzuimd had de juiste bron te vermelden (excuus) en anderzijds omdat we in lekentaal feitelijk ten onrechte praten over zuurtegraad waar men een gezond milieu voor tanden bedoelt.
The Department of Health (1989) COMA report on dietary sugars and human disease concluded that: “Although lactose alone is moderately cariogenic,
milk also contains factors which protect against dental caries, so that milk without added sugars may be considered to be virtually non cariogenic”
(report section 6.7). In a review of diet, nutrition and chronic diseases, the World Health organisation (2003) classified evidence linking diet to several diseases including dental caries: the strength of the evidence for a decreased risk‟
of dental caries from milk was classified as possible‟.
Other reviews of the relation between milk consumption and oral health have been published in the USA (Tinanoff, 2000;Merritt et al., 2006; Dietrich et al., 2009), UK (Moynihan, 2000) and Sweden (Johansson, 2002) and these comment on
the favourable role of milk in the control of oral disease.
In a briefing paper in the British Dental Journal, Levine (2001) concluded that
“
milk and milk products, if unsweetened by added sugars, are safe and possibly beneficial for teeth.”
Milk is considered a suitable vehicle for substances beneficial to oral health, principally fluoride (Bánóczy et al., 2009)
