Mugwort, basil leaves, dried perilla leaves… when brewed into a mouthwash can significantly reduce daily bad breath.
– Using dried perilla leaves: Perilla has a sour and spicy taste, with a fragrant aroma and warm nature, entering the lungs. It helps relieve colds, dispel wind, expel cold, disinfect, reduce phlegm, and detoxify, making it useful for treating bad breath, colds, asthma, and sore throat…
To use dried perilla leaves, take a handful, brew it strong, and store it in the refrigerator if possible. Use this liquid to gargle and rinse your mouth 1-2 times daily. Just a few days of doing this will eliminate bad breath. Note to spit out after each rinse, do not swallow.
– Using basil leaves: Basil has a spicy flavor, slightly warm nature, and is non-toxic, effective for treating bad breath and various ailments.
Method: Take 10g of basil, brew it with 200ml of water, and use it for gargling and rinsing multiple times throughout the day. You will need to rinse for several days to see effective results.
– Using mugwort: Mugwort has a sharp taste, warm nature, and a pungent aroma, effectively dispelling cold and dampness, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and eliminating unpleasant odors, making it suitable for treating bad breath and strong-smelling breath.
How to use: Take a handful of mugwort, wash it clean, brew it strongly, and use this liquid for gargling several times a day. You only need to use it for 5-6 days to achieve effective results.
– Using star anise: Chewing a few star anise flowers daily and swallowing continuously for several days will eliminate bad breath.
– Using clove buds: To treat odor caused by sinusitis, take a clove bud wrapped in cotton and occasionally insert it into your nose; after about 5 days, the bad smell will be gone.
