Remember shower oranges?
I have never personally known anyone with scurvy… But yeah, they are tasty.
Ooh survivalship bias!!
You shouldn’t eat people with scurvy, regardless of whether you know them.
Thats whats known as anecdotal evidence
Ive never met anyone with ebola yet WHO just declared a global emergency
Apparently, most people getting scurvy these days are autistic and have strong food selection preferences so they just dont end up eating anything with vitamin c
I’m sure there are some folks that got a little too into carnivore diets that have managed to serve the scurve
Oranges and other citrus fruit are also significantly acidic, which is hard on teef. So try not to go overboard, or at least rinse your mouth with water afterwards if you eat citrus regularly.
By the same token, do not rinse your mouth with water after brushing your teeth. This gives more of the toothpaste’s fluoride a chance to adhere, from my understanding.
It is an exposure thing, so you’re better off eating it in one sitting rather than snacking on acidic things throughout the day.
Can I eat the juicy orang right after brushing my teefers?
Maybe save a step, and simply brush your teef with the orange!
