Since I switched to the vegan diet and cut out meat, dairy and eggs, the bad taste I always had in my mouth disappeared. I don’t need a tongue scraper, because my tongue is not coated anymore. It was an unexpected effect and I love it ❤
Good to hear! I'm vegan too and the unexpected effects are great!
I still have to tongue scrape. I wonder what I am still eating as a mostly WFPB vegan that is causing the coating.
@@801oap, do you have stomach problems, like acid reflux? If yes, try cabbage juice. It tastes bad, but it’s a miracle cure for stomach problems. Just put some pieces of fresh cabbage and some warmed water in a blender, strain it and drink the juice on an empty stomach.
@@801oap Food
It would be very helpful if you told us what you do in the light of this evidence. I know you wouldn’t want to promote specific brands, but it would make life much easier for us.
He has stated in past podcasts that he doesn’t do that. He simply presents the evidence from scientific studies and research and then it’s up to us what we do with that information.
Er erwähnt es doch, Listerine
Just look for a brand's ingredients that include Zinc Chloride.
@@laurieparis2203 There are not any
I looked on Amazon and the first result was for Oxyfresh Pro Formula. It has zinc.
I absolutely appreciate the science behind what does not work very well. I think I missed what will help. Am I to understand that just plain brushing and flossing and tongue scraping is about the best that we can do? Pleads help me see what I missed. Thanks.
I missed this too. It wasn't made very clear. 🤷🏻♀
From what I understand, zinc chloride is the only real effective thing with minimal side effects, however, and unfortunately of the eight brands that are listed in a brief second towards the end of the video, only two of them has zinc chloride in it. Ironically, the only ingredient that is clinically shown to help with bad breath is not in most mouthwashes. Go figure
I agree...very unclear as to what the answer is here!
@@ShazWag It's Halitosil Zn.
He never mentioned what would help longterm...only that Zinc has short term effects.Nothing about Xylitol,salt,essential oils or bicarbonate.We need more info.
No mention was made of flossing. When I brush my teeth and floss after, it’s amazing how many morsels of food are dislodged, which would otherwise rot and, presumably, smell as they did so.
It might be that all we have to do is to brush and floss before going to bed, and brush again in the morning. And not risk adverse side effects from chemical mouthwashes; effects that may not become known until much later.
You may also enjoy using a water pik which uses a narrow stream of water to blast out debris. I use it after I floss and am often surprised! 😊
Floss pushes up the bacteria into your gums. Certain flosses like Oral-B brand are made with toxic PFOAs. I prefer an interdental toothbrush. I'm not pushing anything up into my gums.
I had to use both chlorhexidine and diluted camomile drops daily after my orgnathic surgery to prevent the risk of infection. My tongue and some of my teeth became a little stained, but this completely disappeared within a couple of weeks after I stopped using them. Chlorhexidine is important to help prevent infection after oral surgery, the effects of which would be worse.
I noticed that you didn't mention flossing at all in this video. Flossing is crucial to a healthy mouth and gums and also helps eliminate bad breath along with brushing.
Flossing should be done everyday,at night.
Make sure that your floss is not coated with PFC or PTFE.
Flossing pushes the bacteria up into your gums. I hope he will do a video on flossing which covers the potential negative effects.
@@plurabelle5If I don't floss,my gums bleed.There,you have a negative effect of NOT flossing.
For those who are asking. The best mouthwash as shown on the study was Halitosil Zn. Unfortunately, it's not available in any US store I have searched.
Do we know of any alternative with similar agents?
you can buy Zinc Chloride pretty cheap.
Thank you again for great video on what we need to know!
I was hoping you would state the name of a brand to look for. Which one contains the zinc you recommended?
Smartmouth
Halitosil Zn.
Thank you@@edm119
I'm finally free from bad breath after having a horrible outbreak and I feel the same way you described in your interview. Listening to you share your experience of improvement gave me the ray of hope I needed to hear. I'm glad there are people like you who simply want to help other people struggling with the same problems. Your words gave me the courage I needed to hear today to know that it is okay. I can still be myself and now enjoy my life like I'm supposed to. I am blessed to have found you, Dr. Emovon, on TH-cam.
I love this channel!
What about green tea?
Yes! And adding some amla powder just like he said in one video🤗
@@sungheelee9358How much amla to green tea?
Lots of the bags that tea comes in have pfas and bpa
@@HistoriaAlive You don't have to use bags. Some of the best tea is loose.
What is the brand name of the mouthwash we should use?
Halitosil Zn.
@@liliakogan3043, thank you 🩷
Thank you so much for this
Thanks.
I cannot find any mouthwashes in the UK that have Zinc Chloride in them. Not even on Amazon. Can I just add some zinc Chloride liquid to Colgate Plax?
The synchronicity on this video is crazy!!! Thank you so very much for covering this 😁
Can we have a follow up video for Do it yourself mouthwash with H2O2 and ZnCl2?
Flossing helps too, eh? Removing the crap between the teeth and gum line? Dr. Greger didn’t mention that.
You're definitely right about flossing. The video was specifically about mouthwashes though
Parsley essential oil - a few drops swished in water and swallowed really freshens the mouth and breath. A clean diet and not over eating was the key for my husband. Dairy sours breath for most people.
you mentioned years ago a natural remedy containing green tea and amla....what was it again??
So please make it simple and list the best one!!
Zinc chloride.
see 4:55
What about flossing?
Yes, odd this wasn't mentioned.
Xylitol gum?
Dr. Gregor. What about baking soda? Thank you.
There may be pH issues there. Good luck getting any reply.
I wonder why silver wasn't mentioned.
I use colloidal silver as a swish and swallow every night before bed. Will see what the hygienist says at my next checkup, if it's working for gingivitis.
So, which is the best mouthwash?
Anyone have any good DIY recipes? I'd rather make it myself instead of buying plastic bottles forever. I can buy half a kilo of Zinc Chloride for $35 AUD so that's probably a lifetime supply. I'm thinking green tea extract, some xylitol, water etc.
You could mix zinc chloride to a natural toothpaste. There's plenty of recipes online, i think it's worth coconut oil
no salt water rinse?
I'm surprised oil pulling wasn't used either. I don't put much stock in it but it'd be nice to see if the data exists
@@rayzerot The data shows that oil pulling (at least with coconut oil, if memory serves) is too dangerous to the lungs to be used in clinical research. This was cited in Dr. Greger's book, "How Not to Age."
I found water flossing is the best the easiest way.
I thought we weren't supposed to scrape our tongue because it removes the good bacteria that we need for our heart health?
So.. which brands??
Hi, @jorgethecoach! As a general rule, we try to avoid promoting specific products or brands in order to avoid even the appearance of conflicts of interest. Just look for one that fits the description in the video, or make your own, as described here: nutritionfacts.org/video/whats-the-best-mouthwash/ I hope that helps!

"Listerine Ultraclean Zero Alcohol" contains Zinc Chloride, I found it at Amazon. Listerine doesn't have any product named "Advanced Listerine".
Brushing with baking soda works. And the price is right!
Your tongue?
It also damages the enamel because its a base and because it doesn't dissolve into water making it like fine sand that you grind on your teeth with the brush.
Thank you doctor for the professionalism with which you do your job. You listen to your client and you always put their needs first, to ensure they live another day healthily and vibrant. Cheers to you my doctor, I celebrate the way you do your job. If it was up to me I would give you the award of being the best doctor. Thank you Dr Emovon on TH-cam for curing my bad breath naturally.
What about Sodium Chlorite?
Any mouthwash, rinse or product with birch derived Xylitol works the absolute best for your teeth and oral health but stay away from those with alcohol and any other unnatural ingredients. I use XyloBurst Fresh Breath Oral Rinse Mouth Wash with Natural Xylitol - Alcohol-Free, Fluoride Free, SLS Free Cool Mint. If it too strong, just cut in increments with filtered water. There are others on the market with Xylitol, so you a have a choice. They even have a bubblegum flavored one. There's so much junk and poison on the market that "THEY" want to push into your mouth, it's ridiculous. Good luck on your search and health. Shalum.
Chlorophyll tabs- and parsley oil.
Chew on a couple whole cloves.
Of garlic
Where the hell do you buy zinc chloride?
I've yet to find a chemical I couldn't buy online. I start with Ebay. Try around. It's out there and there are folks who will bring it to your door.
Xylitol? 🤔
We know oral health is key to overall health.
I wonder if some foods associated with health-outcomes like garlic and green tea might partly get misattributed to compounds like allicin and catechins. Perhaps a significant and overlooked mechanism of their beneficial effects might more comprehensibly be attributed to their oral anti-bacterial and bacteriomodulatory effects.
Zinc tablets and keep B12 levels normal
What’s the use of the research. Open answers without any recommendations don’t help solve the problem
Strange! No mention of using sea salt rinse or baking soda in the test.🤔 what happened to a teaspoon of coconut oil?
Brushing teeth with baking soda works
Currently taking Alternative Herbal supplement and cleanser, Dr.Emovon has been a great help. I am so happy seeing the quick improvement taking his treatment to get rid of my bad breath 😷 #dremovon..❤
Coconut oil........oil puling best for hiltosis
Zinc chloride good. Hydrogen peroxide bad. Chlorhexidine bad. Other zinc molecules useless or unknown. I'm finding it surprisingly difficult to find an actual product that fits the bill.
Baking soda mixed with water works wonders!
Mushrooms are said to help.
Also fresh parsley
Chlorine Dioxide?
no solution provided thanks
see 4:55
Coconut oil works a wonder and will get any mouth healthy : no more gingivitis 🤗🎉
Dr Greger has already covered oil pulling. Spoiler: it doesn't work.
@@KrwiomoczBogurodzicy spoiler : it works for me and worked on all people I told to try 🤷🏻♂️ (My stepdad is chinese and had the worse mouth hygiene I’ve seen anywhere. His dentist told him he couldn’t remove his teeth to put on bridges because his gum with way too inflammed. I told him about coconut oil and a few moutwashes later, his dentist just couldn’t believe the result and happily made him a new smile. So there you have it: my very own experiments with it 😉)
Ps. That being said, I’m willing to hear what Dr Greger says about it. Do you have a link?
@@KrwiomoczBogurodzicy I could find this video of Dr Greger : th-cam.com/video/1UhiAJjWut0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=EVrz2HF04wIqQlOQ
Maybe you ought to watch it again? He’s doesn’t discard oil pulling as a means for good oral hygiene since it DOES a very good job. In the video he actually emits the hypothesis that it is more the effect of the pulling than the oil itself.
Also, oil pulling doesn’t cure everything, that would be ridiculous and is not what I’m saying either. Notice too that in the study, they didn’t use coconut oil but sunflower oil.
My experience and that of my family and friends who tried it is that coconut oil pulling works wonder. Try it for yourself 😉
@@bubblybull2463. I am interested. How do you use the coconut oil? What is the technique?
Coconut oil pulling, in particular, is dangerous to the lungs. So dangerous, in fact, that scientists deem it unethical to use it in research. This is cited in Dr. Greger's book, "How Not to Age."
Iodine
What about just good old fashioned hydrogen peroxide? Seems to work great for me and it’s very inexpensive.
He mentions it in the video; it may be carcinogenic.
And how inexpensive is oral cancer?
@@Typhoonbladefisthow is it carcinogenic
@@HistoriaAlive I don't know, I think it has something to do with how hydrogen peroxide causes DNA damage. I believe he cited a study in this video, you might want to look into that to see if it has any answers, or do some searches on the subject, it looks like there's a lot of scientific articles on the topic.
Pretty sure the best mouthwash is a vegan diet and eating meat causes halitosis.
Dairy gave me halitosis, stinky arm pits that wouldn't wash away. Sugar will also make me stink. I am sensitive to both sugar and casein which might explain why I stunk.
Vegetables make you bloated and gassy
@@Kayte... So sorry to hear you stink so easily.
Love eating whole food plant based. Never have been healthier. Zero pain with IBS I suffered since childhood. Yes I was on Keto for over 30 years as in low carb (Atkins, then Keto, attempted Carnivore on and off was SICK as like no one else. My body yelled at me! Finally when I listened to my body, my life has never been better and not only am I better but I myself and my family are no longer harming animals or the environment. Excellent side effects all the way around.
@@HistoriaAliveme eating a whole bowl of kale, spinach and fruits and feeling awesome, not bloated or gassy but was bloated and gassy on a meat based diet for 26 years
Original Listerine.
But that kills the good bacteria that protects your heart.
@@ShazWag I believe the benefits out weigh the good bacteria. Although sugar intake is a major detriment.
He did say the best was alcohol-free which means that its Halitosil ZN. But that's hard to get. So I guess its Listerine original !
@@Matlockization. Listerine Total Care is supposed to contain zinc chloride (the magic bullet he mentions). Not sure if Listerine original does.
Anything with fluoride is bad
