Bleeding gums indicates a lack of vitamin C in the body

A nutritionist explained that a lack of vitamin C can lead to bleeding gums, as these vital nutrients help tissues grow and regenerate, and they also support wound healing.

At the same time, vitamin K helps blood clot, according to the British "Daily Mail" website.

It is recommended to add dark green leafy vegetables, especially cabbage, to the diet to increase levels of vitamins C and K, in addition to citrus fruits, kiwi and broccoli on a regular basis.
