Our commitment to eco-friendly oral care is supported by a range of products designed from the ground up to be as healthy as possible. Take our peppermint mouthwash concentrate. It is made with only natural ingredients, ingredients that include aloe vera juice.
Perhaps you've never considered aloe vera as a mouthwash ingredient. You are familiar with what it does for burns and cuts, but do you know why it is good for oral care as well? If not, you are in luck. We are about to explain everything you need to know.
The Basics of Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is considered a succulent plant that grows in a variety of species. The plant's leaves contain a gelatinous substance science refers to as acemannan. The rest of us generically call it 'aloe'. Aloe is used around the world as an ointment for treating everything from burns to scrapes and insect bites.
Although direct ingestion is not recommended, aloe vera juice can be used safely in products like mouthwash concentrate. We include it in our peppermint mouthwash due to its oral care benefits.
What You Get From Aloe Vera
As part of an eco-friendly oral care routine, aloe vera juice brings a lot to the table. Here are just some of the benefits you gain because we add it to our peppermint mouthwash:
● Fighting Plaque – Mouthwash containing aloe vera is believed to reduce dental plaque by fighting bacteria and other microorganisms. Reduce plaque and you also reduce the risk of developing gingivitis.
● Healing Response – Aloe vera gel has long been used to treat burns and scrapes because it promotes the body's natural healing response. That same response can be encouraged in the mouth via aloe vera juice. Aloe vera juice can help with canker sores and other oral lesions.
● Reducing Inflammation – Aloe vera is known for its anti-inflammatory qualities. That makes it ideal for treating gum problems, including gingival bleeding. Periodontal issues with related inflammation are good candidates for aloe vera juice.
● Bad Breath – Because aloe vera can help eliminate bacteria and other microbes, it can also help eliminate the bad breath associated with those bacteria and microbes. Combine aloe vera with peppermint and you have a winning combination.
It should be clear why EcoFam includes aloe vera juice in our peppermint mouthwash concentrate. It is a fantastic natural ingredient with a lot to offer.
Add It to Your Oral Care Routine
