Maybee. I never thought about it. People always seem to blame cavities on not brushing which was the first thought that came to my mind.

I am on a lot of medications for allergies, asthma, chronic sinusitus, GERD, and Migraines.

By sugar I ment more sugar as in candy or cake or cookies(more of sweets per say). Actually with hypoglycemia they recomend as little sugar/carbs as possible because sugar actually causes a hypoglycemic attack by raising the blood sugar too fast, and then dropping real fast. I do have some carbs, but not that much.
