These Gum Disease Patients May Benefit from Plant-Based Diets
Switching to a plant-based diet may alleviate periodontal inflammation in patients at risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), according to a study recently published in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology.
Furthermore, the diet changes positively affected inflammatory markers, including bleeding on probing (BOP) and periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA), the authors wrote.
"A trend towards stabilization of the inflammatory parameters (BOP, PISA) was observed in the whole-food plant-based diet (WPBD) group," wrote the authors, led by C.L. Pappe of Humboldt-Universität Zu Berlin in Germany (J Clin Periodontol, October 14, 2024)...
