November 23 2018

Achieve fresh breath using all-natural turmeric mouthwash drops.

Research indicates that many commercially available types of mouthwash often contain harmful chemicals. Some of the many toxins found in mouthwashes include the following:

• Artificial dyes that may cause liver damage.
• Chlorhexidine, which has the potential for contributing to hypertension and other cardiovascular problems.
• Fluoride, which has been associated with arthritis and bone deterioration along with cancer.
• Hexetidine, which may cause allergic reactions and irregular heart rate.
• Methyl salicylate that dilates blood vessels and is responsible for child poisonings.
• Methylparaben, which interferes with estrogen production and may cause breast cancer.
• Triclosan, which causes thyroid malfunction and may cause cancer.

However, people can still gain the benefits of mouthwash by making their own formula using natural ingredients.
