"keep it simple"

That's exactly true. 80-10-10 and Good hygiene.

However, what about the people who have problems when doing that? This doesn't seem to be addressed anywhere. What you have suggested is just simply the standard 80-10-10 diet; this tends to work great for people in nearly all aspects, however, dental issues stand out as the one issue that continues to come up over and over. It is a glaring cause of concern from an otherwise pretty positive show of results.

Personally I found that 80-10-10 gave me horrible (HORRIBLE) receding gums, despite giving me great health everywhere else. After just days of eating just cooked vegetables/roots/tubers...my gumss stabalized.

This is clearly an issue with fruit. If someone is legitimately having a problem with fruit, what can they do to overcome this problem? Obviously fruit can not be avoided on this diet, so the problem needs to be addressed.

Currently, the assumption seems to be that it is impossible for raw, ripe, fruit to cause problems, and thus there is no need to ever address this, or even acknowledge people who have issues.

It's probably not addressed because there simply isn't any type of established solution...

Is it a lack of saliva production? Has the body been permanently ruined from poor diet that it may not be able to handle fruit?
