Oral hygiene
Good oral hygiene comes from a combination of what you don’t eat (you know the culprits: candy, acidic foods, coffee…) and what you do eat. Avocado should be on the list of things you do eat, since it contains a protein that can block the specific type of inflammation that causes gum disease. As a soft food, it can also be gentle on those who already suffer any sort of discomfort in the mouth. Avocados also contain helpful probiotic bacteria which can fight bad bacteria in your mouth. There are even several kinds of toothpaste on the market that contain avocado oil.
