Japanese researchers recently said that yogurt and other foods rich in lactic acid can effectively prevent the gums from shrinking and teeth falling off. According to Xinhuanet.com's English Health Channel, Dr. Yoshihiro Yoshiaki and his research team at the Kyushu University in Fukuoka, Japan, recently investigated the severity of periodontitis in 942 men and women between the ages of 40 and 79, and their Intake of milk, cheese, and lactic acid foods. It was found that the degree of drinking of yogurt and lactic acid drinks was significantly associated with periodontal health, but milk and cheese were not included. Periodontal disease is a chronic bacterial infectious disease that can cause gums to shrink and teeth to fall off. Professor Xie Zhong pointed out in the issue of Periodontology that there is no more effective remedy other than brushing teeth and flossing with dental floss. Just to point out that people who consume large quantities of dairy products have a lower chance of suffering from periodontal disease, but have not determined which dairy products are the most effective. In this survey, the proportion of people who consumed 55 grams or more of yogurt or other lactic acid drinks per day was significantly lower than those who never consumed lactic acid foods. The researchers also found that patients with diffuse (heavier) periodontitis had less daily intake of lactic acid compared to patients with limited (mild) periodontitis.
