Green Tea Link to Gum Protection

March 5, 2009: 03:47 AM EST
Green tea can help prevent gum disease, say Japanese researchers. Their study, published in the Journal of Periodontology, found that gum disease declined in middle-aged Japanese men as the intake of green tea increased. However, the report says that the relationship between the tea and gum disease was fairly weak and it is possible that other dietary factors played a part.
