In this video, we’re going to talk about receding gums and vitamin C. Receding gums could actually be caused by a vitamin C deficiency. Vitamin C has a lot to do with protein building, specifically collagen. When you lose collagen, your gums can start to recede.
Some bacteria have a negative effect through enzymes that break down protein. But, vitamin C can counter the effect of these enzymes. Vitamin C can help reduce the toxic effect of bacteria.
If you brush your teeth and your gums bleed easily, this could be because of a vitamin C deficiency.
Vitamin C deficiency causes:
• You could have high levels of insulin
• You’re taking certain antibiotics
• You’re not getting enough vitamin C from your diet
A few more benefits of vitamin C:
• It can help reduce the toxic effect of hyperthyroidism
• It can help reduce histamines
• It can increase oxygen in the body

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you better understand how receding gums and a vitamin C deficiency are connected.
the only doctor i can trust on youtube...huge respect sir
Dr Schmidt too
Dr.axe is amazing I love his products too
AMIR Do yourself the favor and look up Dr John Bergman, also Dr David Kennedy for oral health. Between Eric here and these two men you wouldn't believe how improved my life has become.
Dr. Peter Osborne too. Not many I do trust. I like Dr. Berg and his wife.
And Dr. Berry!
I don’t think we as your viewers can thank you enough for the best gift you have given us, ..... knowledge and honestly, may God always bless you and your family
I agree!
Dear Dr. Berg, you are so very much appreciated! I hope you realize this. No matter how many videos I watch, there is always a new “health knowledge treasure” to be found.
Struggling with autoimmune disease since adolescence this channel helps me a lot with insight and confirmation of things I’ve found out “the hard way” over the years.
So thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️!
I highly respect this doctor and every video I watch for him is very informative and educational👍👍👍
I'm so glad I found your channel. You seem to be the only professional on CZcams that knows what heck you're talking about.
Great video! Thank you Dr. Berg!
Great info!!!....GOD BLESS YOU!!!!
new subscriber here. thanks for these really helpful, quick videos. also i've been going through your earlier videos and your production values have really improved. thanks again!
You are the best. Your explanations are rather easy to understand for us who don't have English as our 1th language. So thank you for sharing so many interesting videos.
He's easy to listen to in general, because he doesn't speak fast & has a gentle voice!
You are of great help to mankind. Thanks.
Thank you so much for the great information so far but need to know more about this issue! 😘
@KA LA
You are welcome! It's my pleasure.
Thank you Dr.Eric going to try it
You are amazing Dr Berg !
I learned how to make my own red sauerkraut. Great way to get a healthy dose of vitamin c and probiotics.
I love your channel. You are so knowledgeable and explain things so nicely!
I really appreciate that and thanks for following!

Thanking you doctor for this video from Germany.
Yes, more on teeth, skin, hair and nails please.
Please dr more topics about teeth
Don't ask him he knows nothing about it!!!
mmmm i think he knows somethings about it more than dentists do!
You're an idiot to even think he has more knowledge than dentists!! HE HAS NONE! Lack of Vitamin C is NOT the cause of receding gum! Periodontal disease, plaque, bacteria, aggressive brushing, grinding are the MAIN causes of receding gum and every decent dentist out there knows this! I feel sorry for you fools who believe everything this doc tells you! Shame that you can't even figure out much of the information he presents in his videos can actually be searched on the net and found in books!
javaloopa -- And YOU'RE "an idiot" and a "fool" (as you have called others) to naively beLIEve that dentists "know everything" and are the only ones with ALL of the knowledge! Especially, when they have strongly promoted using fluoride in your toothpaste and in our water supply when it has been proven to be a toxic poison, cause osteoporosis (destruction of bones and teeth), and blackening of teeth!
@@jewel_sapphire Braces and dry mouth from medications are also a cause. Then there's the dentists that tell you to brush your gum line..
Thank you doc I needed this video.
I appreciate your comment and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Seriously, this man is a hope for many of us..

Thanks a million times Dr Berg
Wow! Finally the truth. I ask my dentist and I get no answer but expensive surgery. Thank you Dr. Berg!
How is your gum now? I have receding gum 😔
I'm going to get vitamin C today but oil pulling has helped me too.
Oil pulling has changed my life
@@najahomar6949 if you are asking me oil pulling changed my life.

BEST DOCTOR
💥 greetings from Australia, dr Berg! 👍🇦🇺
Thank you for these info , very helpful
Right on! Glad you found it so helpful!
Do a video on what makes a vitamin a vitamin.
I'm very surprised Dr Berg didn't mention Camu Camu Powder as a natural/whole food source of Vit C since it comes from a fruit and is bioavailable. Especially if you are taking a therapeutic dose vs maintenance dose of Vit C you dont want to be eating 6 bell peppers in one sitting! It's much easier to add the Camu Camu powder to your juice or smoothie.
I am taking organic camu camu now every day in powder form from Peru best source of pure stuff...i am take it for the benefits of clearing artery plaque and receding gum issues that are associated with heart issues...so I am getting both benefits at the same time
@@Carolynpurebloodcanuk Did it help your receding gums?
What brand do you recommend?
Or amla
Why ppl never respond if asked a question? Mayb it does not work that’s why, hmm
I live in Denmark, can I take the quiz? If not, try to make it clear in your presentation who can take the quiz. Thank you for yet another helpfull video❤️
Brilliant advise, thank you
Most welcome! Glad you found it useful.
Tky Dr. E B.will do this.
Wow Dr, totally helpful, definitely subscribing now!
Glad you found it helpful - thanks for subscribing!
Thank you Boss.
Dr. Berg, I love watching all of your videos. Has helped so much. I'd love a video that ties together minerals and vitamins. I have seen you do it a time or two, but very briefly. I'd love a video just dedicated to the role of each of the more essential minerals have for certain vitamins.. maybe I just haven't found that video yet? I noticed many here say they get enough vitamin C.. but what if the underlying issue really is a lack of zinc? For instance, many may not be able to process zinc properly, which may lead to a deficiency in nutrients (like vitamin C) that may be crucial in bone, tooth, and connective tissue development. For instance, according to one study, those with a certain type of EDS, may have mutant ZIP13 proteins.
I have found for myself, that correcting the zinc in my body, has helped tremendously with being able to correct other deficiencies.
Also I'd love to know if there is any way to figure out if this mutant ZIP13 protein can be "fixed" without any type of gene therapy but possibly something may be lacking?
I know that magnesium needs potassium for the pump action.. could there be something deficient that would cause the ZIP13 protein mutated? Could fixing that deficiency possibly reverse the mutation? (this is out of my league, so if the question isn't applicable, its because I just don't know)
NicoleM You ask some GREAT questions !
How did you correct your zinc ostensible deficiency?
How did you know you were deficient in zink
I cannot thank you enough for your contribution to the society! ❤
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. 😊
True. Cured my receding gum after 3 months on natural vit. C
plz share about what natural vitamin c you took
Plz give a detailed advice. Thanks
Following.
Did they ever come say anything?? ☹️
Really but how pls tell me the details
I wish you were my doctor...Thanks for your valuable videos!
I read about oil pulling to help with bacteria and red light therapy. One person mention a red light pointer, red light that will work also. I take vit D3 and K2 eventually all these natural solutions should make a difference.
Helpful video :D
Thank you!
I started having major gum issues during pregnany.
I have been researching the crap out of what might cause it and how to support the body in rebuilding gum health. This was very helpful.
Did it help? My gums have fallen so bad around my front bottom teeth k-9 to k-9 . What food are u suppose to eat as a day to day basis? Bc I mean my gums are pink again but they are still falling.
@@alexspikes695 ive read coq ten may help
did you find something that helped your gums?
Thanks for free checkup 😍😍😘
Brilliant information thanks Dr
Most welcome! Glad you found it useful!
I've had receding gums and loose teeth for a 4 or 5 months and nothing was working. I saw a few dentists, doctors, and naturopathic doctors. Not one of them told me to try vitamin c! I started taking about 8 grams a week ago and my teeth tightened right up. I'm hoping recession stops as well.
How about bone broth and fermented cod liver oil?
Jordan Olsen brush with baking soda everyday that will help with receding gums
Jordan Olsen h hi plz tell me what r u taking now plz
Monu Natt do you have amalgam fillings?
Jordan Olsen no I didn't any filling but my gums spaces in my teeths i don't why i m using coconut oil pulling from 2days
Thanks, very informative
Most welcome.
Thank you doctor for your kind information...
Dr Eric Berg DC: That questionnaire tool is a nice idea. Thank you very much; it’s given me some insights and direction that I hadn’t thought about before, but (now that somebody else actually pointed them out to me, lol) make sense.
There’s room for one improvement, however. If you had a checkbox for Covid, that would eliminate some of the other causes for some of the symptoms in there.
What is a kind gift. Thank you.
I love you 😍 the way you explain your videos, amazing! Thank you!
Thanks!
Hi Dr Berg I have a quick question. Is Splenda Naturals good? It has 2 ingredients Erythritol and Stevia Leaf Extract. Please let me know
Dr Eric Bergh, is 2000mg a day of vitamin C= 1000mg morning and 1000mg evening ok to take or can be harmful? and how much of vitamin c a day is safe to take without side effect? Thank you so much for posting your videos, I learned a lot from you....
Thanks for explaining this to me..
Thanks! If you like this video, go ahead and share it with someone that you know that can truly benefit from it.

I hate most citrus fruits but with my gums receding I have to try, l had no idea it could be the cause
Thanks doc
You are amazing.
Yes he is!
Simple and clear
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!
thank u for this info doc .. i really need vitamin C..
Thanks Dr I really love your video very educational I'm doing ketogenic diet i lost 9 kilo in two month after that I have notice very slow process i was losing about 1 kilo a week only with diet no exercises
Thank very much
Dr berg should write a book collecting all this wisdom
Thanks Dr..
Awesome, yes this started happening to me due to insulin resistance so I had to stop eating as much fruit as it kept spiking my blood sugar.
Where were you wen i needed you the most Dr. For five yrs now I been suffering from receding gum due to periodontitis & can't get get over it & you making me believe is due to bad healthy eating n vitamin c defensiency 👍✌
How is your gums now?
Is collagen helpful for hypothyroidism suffering people to prevent hair thinning
Is there natural herbs and spices and homemade paste we can make to help with calcium coating on the tooth surface and gums?
I recommend high dose Vitamin C to all my patients who have gum issues
So then what is high dose?
3grams a day@@pambaughman1579
Thanks Dr. Berg for the info. Periodontal disease can also be inherited, and I'll be sure to get more vit C in.
Heather D I agree with you. I saw my great grandfather’s death certificate while doing genealogy, he had gum disease. Same with me. No amount of brushing, flossing and below the gum line cleaning by a hygienist has halted this. I had to have a tooth, back molar removed because it was so loose. I cried! So upset so if vitamin c can help me then I owe to myself to try it at least.
@@joannephillips6781 "009 Bad Bugs" by David Kennedy on youtube. Within 1 week of using my water flosser, not only do I not have morning breath, my breath has NO smell at any time of the day! Even upon waking!
@@JamesBondSPY007 which water flosser do you use? How many times?
Taking rosehip pill, for collagen production. Its a vitamin C also. My gums have been slowly receding and need to do something asap. Thanks
I was told by my dentist i needed my gums cut back. I have fibromyalgia and my gums were in bad shape i believe cus of it. I took extra good care of my oral health and nothing i was doing helped. I started taking Co-q-10 I chew open a capsule and swish it around in my mouth at night I also took it internal. My gums came back in short time to my dentists amassment. I still us it everyday internally I wouldn't be without it.
Thanks for that Tina, glad it worked for you. I have some Co-Q10 in the cupboard so just started chewing the soft gels after reading your message. I have been chewing vitamin D and DHA fish oil caps for a while so may add Co-Q10 to my daily routine.
Tina, can you please tell me which brand you use? Thank you. I'm going to try it out!
Thanks so much for sharing this, I need to try that!
been told I need 2 molars removed due to abscess eating away bone, so apparently only gum supports those teeth. Bad infection spread further towards front/left side. Swollen & painful. Manuka is amazing, & I've gargled with salt, do interdental brushing, & just today tried your suggestion. Praying it works!
Wow good it hasn’t done anything for my gum taking it internally.
An honest doctor is no better than an angel
Thank you Dr. Berg for being there whenever and for whatever I need help. It's like I can come and just knock at your door for help. ❤ I have very sensitive gums, so what kind of tooth brush would you suggest? I use the soft Bamboo tooth brush. Thanks again
Hello, appreciate your message. On the other part of your comment, if you brush your teeth and your gums bleed easily, this could be because of a vitamin C deficiency. Here is a video that can be of help! 👉 czcams.com/video/ZaJWKzq-uuQ/video.html
Thanks Dr Berg. Very informative. 🐱 🐹
Yeah info thanks
Only Dr I trust!! 👍
Dr. Berg ... why aren't you monetizing your videos? Such good info ... you should get some payment out of it at least! Thank you!
Im subscribed this dr. He is telling the truth
Thank you so much!
Most welcome!
Thanks so much
Definitely!
This man is very smart..
Make a video on nightshades like bellbeppers.
I liked the very last sentence in this video....take vit C from food as supplements are synthetic. Thanks dr
Thanks for the information. I had never heard that vitamin C was a product that is good for the gums. I will try to increase my intake and see if I have positive results.
Any change
Did you forget about telling us the result? I’ve been waiting for 3 years.
Interesting. I started having this issue couple years ago but it was especially bad on two of my teeth. Dentist was of no help, just said it happens as we age and don't brush too hard. I was taking multivitamins but haven't noticed much change. Then I started taking K2, Calcium, biotin, collagen and magnesium for something else. Few weeks into it I noticed that my gums, look so much healthier, the gaps I had were barely there and I didn't get any bleeding when I brushed. My nails improved big time which was a reason I took all of it in the first place.
However, when I stop taking above mentioned supplements, it all went back to what it was before. So, I decided to take K2 and Calcium only to see if that helps, and my gums got better but only if I was taking it every day. So, in my case and aside from vitamin C, it might have something to do with getting Calcium to my gums and teeth too.
Wow. Very interesting discovery. This pretty much confirms the information that Dr. Berg provided.☺
And what is K2
@@jideoguntoba9354 look Into natto. Natto is a fermented soy bean high in k2,7.they have a natto supplement u can buy. It helps your body put the calcium where it's supposed to go.
Dr Steven lin "dental diet"
@@jideoguntoba9354 It’s a vitamin that is usually used in conjunction with taking vitamin D3 because it helps usher the vitamin D into the bone where it needs to go but you can get it in capsules or from food.
Thanks for the info
when problems solved with receding gums and vitamin C, will it helps reverse receding gum back to its normal healthy gum?
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sure thing, I'm glad you liked it!

Would inflammation on the gums be a sign of low Vitamin C? I've had this for YEARS. . since I was a fat out of shape unhealthy kid, to now a fit healthier adult, still have bleeding gums in random parts of mouth after brushing. This is what the dentist, more than one of them, has mentioned to me in past years when I visited for check ups.
And as for flossing.. wow . like walking on egg shells - I got to be very careful with each tooth. I rub too hard with the floss, automatic bleeding. .
What about acerola powder? I take this with amazing results
I took the quiz yesterday and no report as of tonight. When should I expect it?
Yes, but if the soil is depleted of minerals? We need supplements no?
Do sulphur containing foods also negatively affect vitamin c absorption?
I’m struggling with gum receding but it’s limited to only two teeth as of now but this video enlighten me about the vit c role in stopping it. I really appreciate dr for your invaluable video.Looking forward to increase vit c intake from now onwards.
Any improvements since leaving this comment?
@@PizzaCake360 Out of laziness never focused on vit c, in fact totally forgot about this until your reply. Apologies I do not have any answer for this.
@@PizzaCake360 i have the same problem with gum; doctors know almost nothing about it. Something i noticed, my bones are wearing out all over my body. The teeth also are worn out, so i strongly believe it is not gum receding it is more like the teeth are worn out then gum collapse. Strengthen your bones, vitamin C, consume ghee (best source of vitamin K), vitamin D and calcium. good luck my brother and do not have faith in doctors; God and the right food.
@@123jac that’s interesting, thanks for the info. I will definitely look into that 👍
@@123jac o
another super informative video Dr. Berg. Just impeccable presentation. So appreciated. Yes, huge respect for you for sure. So trust worthy, so knowledgeable. Thank you!
Thanks Doctor, in India we get awla also known as Indian gooseberry supposed to be high in Vitamin C. How much should I consume daily ?
I love your videos they are informative and perfect thank you so much
Sailendra Baliga, Eric Berg mentions Bell Peppers as an example. Dont just stick to one thing. Increase the vit C in your meals through a variety of things that are in season...eat them fresh & raw. Make a list of Veg & fruit high in Vit C & choose something from that list every day. Green leafy vegetables are especially good for us, but so are berries, etc.. And I think it's called 'Amla'?
just take the pills
Wow I love this
I appreciate that and thanks for following!

My gums r very soft what should I do please say something about tnx
You are the best and everything you say is accurate and I know because I am a Registered Nurse
Hi Rachel, have you had any experience in quickly concealing grey/tooth trauma? I am a bridesmaid on the weekend and i can't afford a dentist. It's my front tooth. :( The rest of my teeth and nice, straight and white. I feel so sad and anxious.
Doctors or nurses don’t know that much about curing disease . They are only taught to treat it , so being a nurse doesn’t have any advantages when it comes natural health treatments .
I think you are very intelligent. I admire that about you. Sincerely. :)
