i have gum recession in some of my teeth,it started before i was diagnosed with type 2 diab. Understandably i don't want it to get worse,since starting a LCHF diet i stayed away from fruits for a year now.
My gums get inflammed sometimes but i don't use sugar anymore and have a normal dental hygiene routine. It crossed my mind that lack of vitamin c might make it worse since for a year it has been meat,butter,veggies?,cream,nuts and tea only for me(roughly).
I have seen videos from Dr Paul Mason talking about carnivore diet and scurvy,also a video from baker but i would like to know how you guys who practice it have to say.
So how is the LCHF/keto diet/carnivore diet affecting your dental health? how do you deal with low vitamin c? Are you worried about scurvy?
PS: On the Joe Rogan broadcast Dr Jordan Petterson said after he went carnivore for a month his gum disease got better which suprised him since he was told they were never suppose to "reverse"
