Vitamin D May Lower Rate of Tooth Decay

 Dentistry Today – November 30 A new review (Nutrition Reviews) analyzes several studies that concluded vitamin D may be capable of preventing dental caries or tooth decay. The results show a 50% reduction in tooth decay for those who participated. However, the reviewers note that more research is necessary to definitively determine how vitamin D affects a person’s risk of developing tooth decay.

  1. This is an astonishing post because many of us don't aware of the the fact about vitamin D. If you have urge to know about it then you can ask dentist arlington for more details.

  2. Vitamin D has been proved by many researchers that it works like a miracle in fighting the tooth decay.Ofcourse more needs to be done in this case regarding giving awareness to patients that by incorporating this vitamin in their diet, they will be able to prevent the tooth decay. It is the absence of vitamin D and other minerals like calcium and phosphorus in diet that makes the teeth weak and susceptible to tooth decay. So by eating vitamin D rich food, we can fight this problem. I recommend this book Cure tooth decay by Ramiel Nagel which contains information on how to treat tooth decay by eating right food. That’s all it takes! Visit this website for more information http://www.curetoothdecay.com/
