The BBC reports more reason to eat grapefruit! BTW if you have not tried grapefruit and tangerines together as juice, you are REALLY missing out!!!!
BBC NEWS | Health | Grapefruit 'may cut gum disease': "Eating grapefruit could help fight gum disease, a study suggests.
Researchers found people with gum disease who ate two grapefruits a day for a fortnight showed significantly less bleeding from the gums.
They believe this is due to an increase in blood levels of vitamin C, known to promote wound healing and cut damage by unstable free radical molecules.
The research, by Friedrich Schiller University in Germany, is published in the British Dental Journal. "
