2. A toffee apple can count towards your five a day. True or False?

True - Eating a raw apple helps clean your teeth and mouth and can count towards your five a day portion, however dipping them in toffee adds several grams of added sugar as well as calories. Biting into hard foods might also break a tooth or crown so be careful.

While the occasional toffee apple won't harm your health, don’t forget to clean your teeth after eating the apple so tooth decay doesn’t become a problem.
