TAMING OF THE CANDY MONSTER JUST GOT EASIER



I spend a lot of time worrying that I am giving my kids too much sugar. Now, news reports are flying about a new lollipop that actually prevents cavities. 

Dr. John Brunisma, dentist and founder of Michigan-based Dr. John's Candies, says the sucker attacks the bacteria that produces the acids that cause cavities.  I am ordering some today!

Then, today's Washington Post Kids page reports on a new study showing kids who brushed their teeth and ate a cavity-fighting candy twice a day had 62 percent fewer cavities than those who just brushed regularly.  While this study involved kids in Venezuela, testing in the U.S. is coming later this year. Where can I sign my sons up?!
