Matt,

I haven't read those two items, but in general can respond that dental
decay results from eating too much fruit.  If you don't eat fruit a
lot,
this shouldn't be any more of a problem.  Dental decay is worsened by
acids, refined carbs and sweets.  Refined carbs are cut out by virtue
of a
raw diet.  But fruit is high in both acid and sugars.

As far as reproduction goes, eating plenty of flesh products,
especially
fatty fish in to keep lean muscle mass and body fat proportions in
normal
ranges will prevent hormone problems. Many folks who eat raw go to a
completely vegan diet and do not get the fats, the EFAs their bodies
need.

regards,
Roberta
