I had constant bad breath , and after my tonsils were removed, it became normal, as to any person. Nobody talks about the tonsils. I'm a very clean person, and I tried everything, but only the tonsils removing worked. Please spread the word about bad breath, and tonsils.

Oh My GOODNESSSSSSSSS, I went out the very next day after watching this video and spent 60 plus dollars on the ingredients for the homemade toothpaste. this is sooooo worth it. The ingredients will last about a year, with the exception of the xylitol, so that makes this an awesome investment. I also currently make my own deodorant and it truly works. Thank you guys soooooo much for this informative video. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@JenaTuckerAquariums]

Thank you

[@timothyjp89]

Great tips, thank you for the good advice. Here is another Ancient Medicine for bad breath which I use - Miswak, a teeth cleaning twig made from the Salvadora persica tree. A traditional and natural alternative to the modern toothbrush, it has a long, well-documented history and is reputed for its medicinal benefits.[1] It is reputed to have been used over 7000 years ago.[2] The miswak's properties have been described thus: "Apart from their antibacterial activity which may help control the formation and activity of dental plaque, they can be used effectively as a natural toothbrush for teeth cleaning. Such sticks are effective, inexpensive, common, available, and contain many medical properties".

[@doaaseka4852]

I think peppermint does freshen the breath. However, I have acid reflux and peppermint makes my stomache growl and make annoying noises that can be embarrassing. Are there any sort of toothpaste or mouth wash that doesn't have mint in it that will help to freshen breath?

[@cnasaraha.2140]

hey there, I herd that tap water is better then bottled water because it has florid for are teeth!? is this tru?

[@076663837]

Sarah A. Fluoride is toxic if ingested

[@cnasaraha.2140]

Yeah but drinking too much salt in our water can couase our bones to soften and crumble, especially when drinking several glases of water a day, each time, I just heard that some wear before??

[@bluorb]

Fluoride for teeth is basically a horrible toxic scam being pulled over on people, without their consent, in the name of "healthier teeth". Everyone's heard it's good for strong teeth, but there are much better ways (for example, oil pulling) to go about having stronger teeth. Drinking fluoride (and chlorine, which is in most water) destroys your gut flora, which can lead to so many issues, including practically any anti-inflammatory diseases. If you really want fluoride, just use it with your toothpaste. I personally don't use fluoride in my toothpaste, but that's a recent change. Hope this info is useful.

[@cnasaraha.2140]

+Jason Simpson. Thanks!

[@SlimThrull]

Having Fluoride in your drinking water is safe. www.hsph.harvard.edu/magazine/magazine_article/fluoridated-drinking-water/ (Are you going to trust randoms on the internet or Harvard's science department?)
