13. Oral health benefits of nuts

Nuts are packed with calcium, phosphorous and magnesium, all of which are essential for healthy teeth and gums. These minerals work together to strengthen enamel and remineralize teeth, which is the first line of defense in cavity prevention. Additionally, almonds, Brazil nuts and cashews help fight bacteria overgrowth that leads to chronic enamel decay.
