Popis: | Recent claims have been made regarding the putative erosive effects of regularly ingesting low-pH beverages on the integrity of tooth enamel. The purpose of this study was to determine whether fluid consumption during exercise affects the body's defenses against enamel erosion: saliva flow and salivary pH. Males and females (n=50) exercised in the heat (26.7 degrees C, 40 % RH) for 75 min on four occasions. Within each session, subjects consumed ad-lib either water, a sports drink (Gatorade), diluted orange juice, or a homemade sports drink, with the latter three fluids all having low pH values (3.0 to 4.0). Prior to and following exercise, subjects performed a standard stimulated saliva collection procedure. Immediately following collection, saliva flow rate and pH were determined for each sample. Repeated-measures ANOVA were used to evaluate the data. Compared to pre-exercise salivary flow rates (2.6+/- 0.8 ml/min), the post-exercise rate was not different when consuming the sports drink (2.6+/- 0.9 ml/min), but decreased when water or the homemade sports drink was ingested (2.4+/- 0.9 ml/min; p |
