Solve the problem of bad breath – finally breathe freely again!
Do you know that feeling? You're out and about, meeting someone, talking – and suddenly the thought occurs to you: I hope I don't have bad breath! You run through the last coffee, last cigarette, last teeth cleaning… and suddenly you lose the thread of the conversation. Fresh breath is a crucial part of a well-groomed appearance – but it's not always easy to control yourself. If you don't want to constantly chew gum, you have to solve the problem of bad breath differently. As specialists in Ayurveda, health, yoga, and esotericism, we know that physical and mental well-being go hand in hand. That's why we'll show you a holistic approach to improving your oral hygiene and boosting your self-confidence at the same time. Here you'll learn how to regain your fresh breath with high-quality natural products and five simple tricks – because sometimes small daily routines make a big difference!
Why does bad breath occur?
Bad breath, medically known as halitosis, is usually caused by bacterial decomposition processes in the mouth. Bacteria accumulate on the tongue, teeth, and throat, breaking down food debris and dead cells, releasing foul-smelling sulfur compounds. Bad breath is particularly noticeable in the morning after waking up, as saliva flow is reduced during sleep, impairing the natural cleansing of the mouth. However, certain foods, dry mouth, poor oral hygiene, or certain diseases can also cause it.
Solving the problem of bad breath – five Ayurvedic tips
Clean your tongue daily
An essential part of the Ayurvedic morning routine is tongue scraping. Using a stainless steel or copper tongue scraper, plaque and bacteria that have accumulated overnight are removed from the tongue in the morning. This simple action takes only a few seconds but contributes significantly to reducing the bacterial load in the mouth, preventing dental problems, and freshening breath.
Oil pulling for deep cleansing
Traditional oil pulling is a proven method for binding toxins in the mouth. A tablespoon of oil is swished back and forth in the mouth for about 5–10 minutes, pulled between the teeth, and then spit out. This technique not only supports oral hygiene but also has a positive effect on the entire oral flora. Enriched with numerous essential oils and spices, our NIYOK Lemongrass and Ginger Oil is perfect for the gums and palate.
Use natural mouthwash. Chemical mouthwashes are often very harsh and can disrupt the balance of the oral flora. At Mana Shop, we therefore prefer gentle, Ayurvedic mouthwashes, such as the NIYOK Peppermint & Lemon Mouthwash . This effectively inhibits the proliferation of caries-causing bacteria while maintaining the natural balance and is particularly gentle.
Drink plenty of water
A dry mouth promotes bad breath. If you don't drink enough, you also produce too little saliva, which is precisely what's needed to flush food particles out of your mouth and eliminate bacteria. A simple trick is to drink plenty of water and herbal tea throughout the day.
Adjust your diet
Avoid foods high in sugar and highly processed foods, as these promote bacterial growth. Instead, healthy foods , spices , and herbs like parsley, mint, or coriander help—they act as natural breath fresheners.
