Almost half of U.S. adults over age 30 have some form of gum disease, and the effects can extend far beyond the mouth. Research has linked gum disease to more than 50 systemic conditions, including diabetes, lung cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.

On this episode of On Nutrition, dentist Alex Silvia, D.D.S., explains why gum health matters, which nutrients may help slow disease progression, and whether that tongue scraper is worth adding to your routine.
