– Avoid Eating Foods Packed with Phytic Acid
As mentioned above, foods that possess phytic acid include seeds, beans, nuts, and grains. You should avoid eating these foods since the phytic acid found in them could keep your body from absorbing the vitamins and minerals from the food you eat.

Eating foods high in minerals and vitamins helps prevent or even heal tooth decay. You should eat green leafy vegetables and healthy fats, such as olive oil, coconut oil, avocado, etc.

Minimize your consumption of foods rich in sugar to keep your teeth healthy because the harmful bacteria found in your mouth feed on sugar. Plus, sugar demineralises and decalcifies the structure of your teeth.
