Cranberries May Protect Against Harmful Oral Bacteria

Cranberry's super bacteria fighting abilities are proving to be beneficial in oral health. Researchers have discovered that cranberries may reduce the growth of P. gingivalis and plaque development, which is the beginning of periodontitis.

Considering the importance of oral health to overall health, adding cranberries to your regular diet may be a smart option.

Cranberries are naturally bitter, however, they can be eaten in many forms, including juice, frozen, and even powdered pills.
