Mouthwash is a neat little invention. It’s an easy way to feel like your mouth is totally clean and fresh smelling in a matter of seconds…all easily achieved without your toothbrush. So it’s no wonder that mouthwash is so popular. But really ask yourself why would you pour chemicals into your mouth, supporting the production and manufacturing of products that cause pollution, whilst spending money you don’t have to spend when you can make your own mouthwash from items you may very well have around the house. Here are a couple of recipes. Enjoy!
