Good news for those with gum disease. You just have to eat two grapefruits a day to fight the gum disease. BBC Health writes:
Eating grapefruit could help fight gum disease, a study suggests.
Researchers found people with gum disease who ate two grapefruits a day for a fortnight showed significantly less bleeding from the gums.
They believe this is due to an increase in blood levels of vitamin C, known to promote wound healing and cut damage by unstable free radical molecules.
The research, by Friedrich Schiller University in Germany, is published in the British Dental Journal.
The study of 58 people with chronic gum disease found that eating grapefruits had a positive effect on both smokers and non-smokers.
