Fresh breath can be your best charm offensive


Bad breath may ruin one’s social life. Imagine meeting someone for the first time who gets a whiff of unpleasant breath. He or she might avoid eye contact with you in a conversation, or worse, might even leave the room all together. If you have bad breath, consider all first impressions a big failure before they even start.

According to microbiologists, bad breath is caused by bacteria in the mouth. When you eat, food is broken down for proper digestion. Bacteria react to the protein found in food and produces a sulfurous compound that gives breath a rotten smell. Other dental problems, like cavities and gum disease, also cause bad breath.



Unfortunately, you can never tell when you have bad breath. Like the snorer who can’t hear himself snore, you aren’t easily aware of how your own breath smells.

So how can you be 100% sure what your breath smells like? Here are some ways to find out:
         Wipe the back of your tongue with a clean cotton ball or use unflavored and unwaxed dental floss to clean your back teeth. Wait a few minutes, then smell the cotton ball or the dental floss. The scent you get should give you an idea of what your own breath smells like.

         Do you often have a “bad taste in the mouth?” Regardless of whether you ate something foul or not, this can be an indication that you might have bad breath.

         The best way to find out for sure is to ask a good friend, a family member or even your dentist. It’s better to learn the bitter truth upfront than to offend others unknowingly.


Fighting and preventing bad breath requires practicing proper dental hygiene. These days, simply brushing teeth regularly is not enough. You need to make sure that your entire mouth -- teeth and gums included – is well protected.

Stanhome World, the No. 1 Direct-Selling Home Care Company in the European Union, introduces FRESH IT Peppermint Refreshing Mouthwash. Not only does it reach the parts of your mouth that a regular toothbrush cannot reach, FRESH IT is also specially formulated to eliminate 99.999% of oral bacteria. With a double-acting solution that protects both teeth and gums, Stanhome’s new product helps prevent Gingivitis, or a case of swollen and sensitive gums. FRESH IT is also enriched with a peppermint flavour that offers minty fresh breath all day long.

Remember, good hygiene and fresh breath always brings a boost of confidence. Using an effective mouthwash like FRESH IT means you no longer have to worry about offending people without knowing it. FRESH IT ensures that you can carry on worry-free conversations, even in close-up moments.
