Super easy homemade mouthwash, yet another game changer. I will never go back to store bought brands; there are so many more benefits in making your own with essential oils. Store bought mouthwash can be toxic for you when ingested (toxicity study found HERE) and its ingredients are mostly just fillers and sweeteners. Try this recipe for the easiest and best working mouthwash out there. Here are the reasons why I chose some of the ingredients and their benefits.
Peppermint essential oil: Is highly antibacterial, antiviral and anti-inflammatory (for gums). It is an appetite suppressant and it tastes great.
Clove essential oil: Used in the dental industry for years, it is highly anti-inflammatory (for gums) and antimicrobial. It eliminates bad breath and fights cavities and gargling with it relieves sore throats.
Spearmint essential oil: Is highly antibacterial, is an antiseptic and tastes great.
Hydrogen peroxide: Whitens teeth and is antibacterial.
Calcium carbonate: Remineralizes and whitens teeth.
What You Will Need:
Note: It's super important to use 100% therapeutic grade essential oils, especially for your mouth. I recommend and stand by Young Living essential oils because I know they are the purest oils on the market. You can learn more about how to become a Young Living wholesale member HERE. This is the best way to order oils because you get super high quality oils at a discounted price.
Directions:
In glass container, mix all ingredients together and you’re done. Shake well before each use and enjoy the mouthwash!
