Simple Remedy to Eliminate Bad Breath

Do you know someone who has bad smelling mouth? Bad smelling mouth can cause various problems like:
-You find it difficult to talk to that person when he/she is quite near to you.
-Every time you talk to that person you concentrate more on avoiding the bad smell rather than talking.
-If you have intimate with that person you dread that you may soon have to kiss again ;)

Many people people face the problem of bad smell and are almost helpless. Even worse, many of them are not aware that their mouth has foul smell. If you or any of your know acquaintances face this problem I may have a solution for you.

Major reason for foul smell in the mouth is gingivitis or infections in the gum. Due to this there is swelling in the gum and you may find it painful to brush that area in the mouth. When that happens, the infection persists and in fact keeps increasing.

So what to do? Simple answer is a using a mixture of Turmeric and Triphala.
Mix equal quantities of Triphala and Turmeric powder and keep it in a container. Every time you brush, take a pinch of this mixture and massage the gum with your finger applying the mixture slowly. Do it for 3 to 4 minutes. You will observe that it is little bitter in taste and also little sweet when you drink water afterwords.

After massaging for 3 to 4 minutes brush you tooth.

How it works?
Triphala is astringent. An astringent is a substance which causes biological tissue to contract or draw together thus helps in reducing the swelling. Both Triphala and Turmeric have germ killing abilities and healing capacity. Therefore this mixture works in two ways. Reducing the swelling and at the same time healing the infection.

Apart from the gum other diseases of the mouth is also cured and overall mouth health will increase. Practice this for a week and see the difference it makes. Your will feel fresh and foul smell will vanish. You will also not require any other mouth wash.

Both the powders are very cheap though they are available as separate products. Triphala can be procured from any Ayurvedic shop in India or available online. Turmeric as most of you would be aware is a commonly available ingredient in Indian kitchens.

I am a fan of natural remedies and feel that it is better to go for these solutions as they are good for your body and do not have side effects. You can try this and see the results for yourself. If you suggest this solution to someone suffering from bad breath problem, he/she will be grateful to you.

So go ahead, use this simple mixture and get ready for the next great kiss.
