Tooth Decay


Continuation from before, I found a article which describes in detail how mother with infants are filling bottles with Mountain Dew, and when doctors have examined the children they have a unfathomable amount of cavities.  I remember if I had one cavity it was a travesty, a two-year old was examined and was found to have eleven cavities.  This does not just go away at older ages, an 11-year old boy when asked about brushing said he did not brush his teeth for over two years because they hurt so bad.  The more I dive into the topic the worse it seems to get.

Applacian Mountains, The unsuspected addiction


Shane, Josh, and I have recently stumbled upon a quite horrific addiction to something that most people would not think is possible to become addicted to. As well as something that is deemed a harmless drink, could cause such catastrophic disaster on the people of the Appalachian Mountains.  As I read more and more, unraveling detail after detail, what was and still is going on must be stopped.  Things such as putting mountain dew in baby bottles, by the time the children are eight all their teeth are rotted and almost completely gone.  It is something right in our own country that must be addressed.
