Crystal light more acidic than Mountain Dew!?!?!

I went to have my teeth cleaned today and there was a poster on the wall with the acidities of various drinks. The pH of crystal light (raspberry lemonade flavor) was lower than that of Mountain Dew! Now I know plain water is best, but sometimes a girl needs some flavor to get all that water in! The poster recommended drinking it with a straw, preferably with meals, and to drink it quickly, not sip on it all day.

Does anyone know if the other flavors are just as acidic?

    I don't know the ph of the drinks .. I know if I have too much acidic food I make sure to add lemons and real ginger to my diet, and other alkaline foods. But as far as protecting your teeth .. not sure. That sucks, I was just starting to buy those Crystal light packs. I wonder if the Propel Zero is very acidic?
