I have a fantastic and easy recipe to make your own mouthwash! One that will whiten teeth and kill pathogens in your mouth all without harmful additives like fluoride and alcohol!
Fluoride has been linked to lower IQ, harming the thyroid and is a neurotoxin (link to data). Alcohol is also not required in this recipe.
Recipe:
Glass bottle with lid Water 5 – 8 drops Protective Blend
4 – 5 drops either Peppermint or Spearmint (your choice)
1 -2 drop drops Clove (optional) 1 – 2 drops Wintergreen (for whitening / optional)
Xylitol (optional natural sweetener – has oral health benefits)
It’s as easy as that! I would leave out the Wintergreen for a natural teeth whitener if you are making this for your kids, and you fear they will swallow it, leave Wintergreen out. It can thin the blood.
