Well, I don't know of any food, just don't eat a ton of junk food..and mii orthodontist says to help your gums, just brush your teeth (and gums) twice or three times a day, and that should help them, and if it starts to bleed when your brushing, that is actually good because that means that you are making them stronger. Well, hope I helped! -kAtii <3

Brush them really lightly twice a day when your brushing your teeth. And floss.

While you're brushing your teeth everyday, make sure you brish over your gums. Also, if you buy mouthrinse, it'll kill the bacteria off of your gums and help make them stronger. Hope I helped :)

I'm not sure that there are really any foods that strenthen gums - it's not quite like teeth, where calcium and fluoride strengthen them - gums are soft tissue, whereas teeth are more akin to bones.
However, regular flossing and making sure to not over-brush your teeth will help keep your gums healthier. You might consider using a mouthrinse on a regular basis to kill off any bacteria that could infect or erode your gum tissue.

Just brush ur teeth and gums really good each day.Thats all i can think of.
