Скачать или смотреть 5 vegan foods for healthy teeth & gums

Monday was my biannual trip to the dentist! I think of it like a spa trip for my teeth :) In honour of that, here are some vegan foods that can help build and maintain healthy teeth and gums.

The most common recommendations I see for tooth-healthy foods are dairy - milk, yogurt, cheese, etc... because of the calcium.

Luckily, there are loads of plant foods that have calcium, protein, iron, folate, vitamin C, omega-3, phosphorous, zinc, B vitamins and fiber - all nutrients that are important for the health of your teeth and gums.

Eating these foods of course do not substitute for keeping a good daily routine of brushing and flossing, and visiting your dentist (whether you think of it as a tooth spa or not...)

This post is not called "Top 5" because there are hundreds of plant foods that are excellent sources of one or more of those nutrients. These are just five foods for healthy teeth, and I kinda cheated on a few of them...

Plus I threw in a bonus one, because it's not a food.
